"""
Classes to implement output filters to print kernel-doc documentation.

The implementation uses a virtual base class ``OutputFormat``. It
contains dispatches to virtual methods, and some code to filter
out output messages.

The actual implementation is done on one separate class per each type
of output, e.g. ``RestFormat`` and ``ManFormat`` classes.

Currently, there are output classes for ReST and man/troff.
