     instances of me are used to interface to external library functions (as found in a dll/shared object).
-    When a special external-call pragma such as:
-	<api: bool MessageBeep(uint)>
 
-    is encountered by the parser in a method, the compiler generates a call via
-	<correspondingExternalLibraryFunctionObject> invokeWithArguments: argumentArray.
+    Inside a method, when a special external-call pragma such as:
+        <api: bool MessageBeep(uint)>
+
+    is encountered by the parser, the compiler generates a call via
+        <correspondingExternalLibraryFunctionObject> invokeWithArguments: argumentArray.
 
     In the invoke method, the library is checked to be loaded (and loaded if not already),
     the arguments are converted to C and pushed onto the C-stack, the function is called,
     and finally, the return value is converted back from C to a smalltalk object.
+
+    The parser supports the call-syntax of various other smalltalk dialects:
+        Squeak / ST-X:
+            <cdecl:   [async] [virtual|nonVirtual][const] returnType functionNameStringOrIndex ( argType1..argTypeN ) module: moduleName > 
+            <apicall: [async] [virtual|nonVirtual][const] returnType functionNameStringOrIndex ( argType1..argTypeN ) module: moduleName >
+
+        Dolphin:
+            <stdcall: [virtual|nonVirtual][const] returnType functionNameStringOrIndex argType1..argTypeN>
+            <cdecl:   [virtual|nonVirtual][const] returnType functionNameStringOrIndex argType1..argTypeN> 
+
+        ST/V:
+            <api: functionName argType1 .. argTypeN returnType> 
+            <ccall: functionName argType1 .. argTypeN returnType> 
+            <ole: vFunctionIndex argType1 .. argTypeN returnType>
+
+        VisualWorks:
+            <c: ...>
+            <c: #define NAME value>
