-"""Generic output formatting.
-
-Formatter objects transform an abstract flow of formatting events into
-specific output events on writer objects. Formatters manage several stack
-structures to allow various properties of a writer object to be changed and
-restored; writers need not be able to handle relative changes nor any sort
-of ``change back'' operation. Specific writer properties which may be
-controlled via formatter objects are horizontal alignment, font, and left
-margin indentations. A mechanism is provided which supports providing
-arbitrary, non-exclusive style settings to a writer as well. Additional
-interfaces facilitate formatting events which are not reversible, such as
-paragraph separation.
-
-Writer objects encapsulate device interfaces. Abstract devices, such as
-file formats, are supported as well as physical devices. The provided
-implementations all work with abstract devices. The interface makes
-available mechanisms for setting the properties which formatter objects
-manage and inserting data into the output.
