I think that it is useful and necessary to document this stuff in the
man page, I doubt that quoting C code is understandable by
non-programmers.

While at it, below is an patch explaining the different memory types
from ./common/phones/atgen.c (*memorynames[]) and fixing a typo in
your last commit.  Note that I didn't check if the types are really
correct, I just took it from `atgen.c' so you may want to verify it.
