- Lots of changes to make cpplint happy. It still complains about header guards, but that's pretty much it now.

/*! \file
 *  \brief Base class for all AIM-C modules.
 */

/*! The module construcor is called with a pointer to a set of Parameters.
 * In the constructor, the module sets the defaults for its various
 * parameters.
 * A module is initialized with a pointer to a valid SignalBank
 * (source modules can be initialized with the NULL pointer). After the
 * Initialize(SignalBank*) function has been called, a call to GetOutputBank()
 * returns a pointer to a SignalBank in which the results
 * of the module's processing will be placed. Modules can use the output_
 * SignalBank to store their output, or leave it uninitialized if they do not
 * produce an output.
 * At each call to Process(input), the module takes the
 * SignalBank 'input' (which must, unless otherwise specified, have the same
 * number of channels, sample rate, buffer size and centre frequencies as the
 * SignalBank which was passed to Initialize()), processes it, and places the
 * output in the internal SignalBank output_.
 * Modules can have an arbitrary number of unique targets. Each
 * completed output frame is 'pushed' to all of the targets of the module
 * in turn when PushOutput() is called. To achieve this, after each complete
 * output SignalBank is filled, the module calls the Process() function of
 * each of its targets in turn.
 * When Initialize() is first called. The module Initialize()s all of its
 * targets with its ouptut_ SignalBank, if it's output bank has been set up.
