<h3>Python docstring converter plugins.</h3>
<p> <em>How does an author write documentation so that it will be marked
up and look fancy?</em> This is a perennial question for
<a href="http://www.python.org">Python</a> users, and seems to have introduced
a roadblock into the development of more robust and useful
documentation tools. HappyDoc stands firmly on the fence and does
not attempt to resolve the issue.</p>
<p> By separating the docstring converter and formatter classes from
the docset classes, HappyDoc allows a user to create their own
converter and formatter to interpret comments in any way they see
fit.</p>
<p> The docstring converter plugins are responsible for translating
text from the input markup syntax to the output format. This
translation is formatter independent, so that the same HTML
conversion might be used by mutliple HTML formatters. It is,
however, <em>format</em> dependent, so that HTML output should not be
used by a plain text formatter.</p>
<p> The default for the <code>HTMLTableFormatter</code> (the default formatter
for HappyDoc) is to treat <code>__doc__</code> strings as
<a href="http://www.zope.org//Members/jim/StructuredTextWiki/StructuredTextNGRules">StructuredTextNG</a>.
This is the "Next Generation" version of the original
<a href="http://www.python.org/sigs/doc-sig/stext.html">StructuredText</a>
markup syntax. See also the <code>StructuredText</code> package for a
description of the rules for using StructuredText.</p>
<p> <em>Don't like StructuredText?</em> Write your own docstring converter
that uses something different and drop it into place. Refer to
the <code>happydocstring.py</code> module for the base class and APIs
required of a docstring converter. If a defacto (or otherwise)
standard structured markup for Python <code>__doc__</code> strings emerges,
HappyDoc will be updated to use that format by default.</p>
