Please allow to use a backslash (\) instead of at-sign (@) at the beginning and end of files headers.

Example: \startditaa instead of @startditaa and \endditaa instead of @endditaa

In the last beta: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13064071/plantuml.jar PlantUML now accepts backslash and at-sign.

So you can use @startXXX or \startXXX (same thing for end).

Note that even if the modification has been done in the library, some plugins may not be working, because they might accept at-sign only, and not backslash. However, this should be fine with Doxygen.

Tell us if it does not work for you!
