"""
This is the Docutils (Python Documentation Utilities) package.
Package Structure
=================
Modules:
- __init__.py: Contains component base classes, exception classes, and
Docutils version information.
- core.py: Contains the ``Publisher`` class and ``publish_*()`` convenience
functions.
- frontend.py: Runtime settings (command-line interface, configuration files)
processing, for Docutils front-ends.
- io.py: Provides a uniform API for low-level input and output.
- nodes.py: Docutils document tree (doctree) node class library.
- statemachine.py: A finite state machine specialized for
regular-expression-based text filters.
Subpackages:
- languages: Language-specific mappings of terms.
- parsers: Syntax-specific input parser modules or packages.
- readers: Context-specific input handlers which understand the data
source and manage a parser.
- transforms: Modules used by readers and writers to modify DPS
doctrees.
- utils: Contains the ``Reporter`` system warning class and miscellaneous
utilities used by readers, writers, and transforms.
utils/urischemes.py: Contains a complete mapping of known URI addressing
scheme names to descriptions.
- utils/math: Contains functions for conversion of mathematical notation
between different formats (LaTeX, MathML, text, ...).
- writers: Format-specific output translators.

"""Docutils version identifier (complies with PEP 440)::
major.minor[.micro][releaselevel[serial]][.dev]
* The major number will be bumped when the project is feature-complete, and
later if there is a major change in the design or API.
* The minor number is bumped whenever there are new features.
* The micro number is bumped for bug-fix releases. Omitted if micro=0.
* The releaselevel identifier is used for pre-releases, one of 'a' (alpha),
'b' (beta), or 'rc' (release candidate). Omitted for final releases.
* The serial release number identifies prereleases; omitted if 0.
* The '.dev' suffix indicates active development, not a release, before the
version indicated.

rather than parsing the text of `__version__`.

settings_spec = ()
"""Runtime settings specification. Override in subclasses.
Defines runtime settings and associated command-line options, as used by
`docutils.frontend.OptionParser`. This is a tuple of:
- Option group title (string or `None` which implies no group, just a list
of single options).
- Description (string or `None`).
- A sequence of option tuples. Each consists of:
- Help text (string)
- List of option strings (e.g. ``['-Q', '--quux']``).
- Dictionary of keyword arguments sent to the OptionParser/OptionGroup
``add_option`` method.
Runtime setting names are derived implicitly from long option names
('--a-setting' becomes ``settings.a_setting``) or explicitly from the
'dest' keyword argument.
Most settings will also have a 'validator' keyword & function. The
validator function validates setting values (from configuration files
and command-line option arguments) and converts them to appropriate
types. For example, the ``docutils.frontend.validate_boolean``
function, **required by all boolean settings**, converts true values
('1', 'on', 'yes', and 'true') to 1 and false values ('0', 'off',
'no', 'false', and '') to 0. Validators need only be set once per
setting. See the `docutils.frontend.validate_*` functions.
See the optparse docs for more details.
- More triples of group title, description, options, as many times as
needed. Thus, `settings_spec` tuples can be simply concatenated.
