 # Adds a library target for a Quassel module.

-# It expects the (CamelCased) module name as a parameter, and derives various

+#                    [STATIC]
+# )
+#
+# The function expects the (CamelCased) module name as a parameter, and derives various
 # strings from it. For example, quassel_add_module(Client) produces
 #  - a library target named quassel_client with output name (lib)quassel-client(.so)
 #  - an alias target named Quassel::Client in global scope
 #
+# If the optional argument STATIC is given, a static library is built; otherwise, on
+# platforms other than Windows, a shared library is created. For shared libraries, also
+# an install rule is added.
+#
 # The function exports the TARGET variable which can be used in the current scope
 # for setting source files, properties, link dependencies and so on.
 # To refer to the target outside of the current scope, e.g. for linking, use
 # the alias name.
