Base formatting instruction recognized by Format

Sourcetype t

Immutable document type

Sourcetype ('a, 'b) fmt = ('a, t, t, 'b) format4
Sourcetype printer0 = t -> t
Sourcetype 'a printer = 'a -> printer0
Sourceval empty : t

Empty document

Sourceval format : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

format ppf doc sends the format instruction of doc to the Format's formatter doc.

Sourceval fold : ('acc -> element -> 'acc) -> 'acc -> t -> 'acc

Fold over a document as a sequence of instructions

Sourceval msg : ('a, t) fmt -> 'a

msg and kmsg produce a document from a format string and its argument

Sourceval kmsg : (t -> 'b) -> ('a, 'b) fmt -> 'a
Sourceval printf : ('a, printer0) fmt -> 'a

printf and kprintf produce a printer from a format string and its argument

Sourceval kprintf : (t -> 'b) -> ('a, t -> 'b) fmt -> 'a
Sourceval open_box : box_type -> int -> printer0
