"""
Format management.


Creating new formats
--------------------

A new format named 'foo-bar' corresponds to Python module
'tracetool/format/foo_bar.py'.

A format module should provide a docstring, whose first non-empty line will be
considered its short description.

All formats must generate their contents through the 'tracetool.out' routine.


Format functions
----------------

All the following functions are optional, and no output will be generated if
they do not exist.

======== =======================================================================
Function Description
======== =======================================================================
begin    Called to generate the format-specific file header.
end      Called to generate the format-specific file footer.
nop      Called to generate the per-event contents when the event is disabled or
         the selected backend is 'nop'.
