+  #
+  # ### Integer
+  #
+  # | Format  | Integer Formats
+  # | ------  | ---------------
+  # | d       | Decimal, negative values produces leading '-'
+  # | x X     | Hexadecimal in lower or upper case. Uses ..f/..F for negative values unless # is also used
+  # | o       | Octal. Uses ..0 for negative values unless # is also used
+  # | b B     | Binary with prefix 'b' or 'B'. Uses ..1/..1 for negative values unless # is also used
+  # | c       | numeric value representing a Unicode value, result is a one unicode character string, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | s       | same as d, or d in quotes if alternative flag # is used
+  # | p       | same as d
+  # | eEfgGaA | converts integer to float and formats using the floating point rules
+  #
+  # Defaults to `d`
+  #
+  # ### Float
+  #
+  # | Format  | Float formats
+  # | ------  | -------------
+  # | f       | floating point in non exponential notation
+  # | e E     | exponential notation with 'e' or 'E'
+  # | g G     | conditional exponential with 'e' or 'E' if exponent < -4 or >= the precision
+  # | a A     | hexadecimal exponential form, using 'x'/'X' as prefix and 'p'/'P' before exponent
+  # | s       | converted to string using format p, then applying string formatting rule, alternate form # quotes result
+  # | p       | f format with minimum significant number of fractional digits, prec has no effect
+  # | dxXobBc | converts float to integer and formats using the integer rules
+  #
+  # Defaults to `p`
+  #
+  # ### String
+  #
+  # | Format | String
+  # | ------ | ------
+  # | s      | unquoted string, verbatim output of control chars
+  # | p      | programmatic representation - strings are quoted, interior quotes and control chars are escaped
+  # | C      | each :: name segment capitalized, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | c      | capitalized string, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | d      | downcased string, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | u      | upcased string, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | t      | trims leading and trailing whitespace from the string, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  #
+  # Defaults to `s` at top level and `p` inside array or hash.
+  #
+  # ### Boolean
+  # 
+  # | Format    | Boolean Formats
+  # | ----      | -------------------   
+  # | t T       | 'true'/'false' or 'True'/'False' , first char if alternate form is used (i.e. 't'/'f' or 'T'/'F').
+  # | y Y       | 'yes'/'no', 'Yes'/'No', 'y'/'n' or 'Y'/'N' if alternative flag # is used
+  # | dxXobB    | numeric value 0/1 in accordance with the given format which must be valid integer format
+  # | eEfgGaA   | numeric value 0.0/1.0 in accordance with the given float format and flags
+  # | s         | 'true' / 'false'
+  # | p         | 'true' / 'false'
+  #
+  # ### Regexp
+  #
+  # | Format    | Regexp Formats (%/)
+  # | ----      | ------------------
+  # | s         | / / delimiters, alternate flag replaces / delimiters with quotes
+  # | p         | / / delimiters
+  #
+  # ### Undef
+  #
+  # | Format    | Undef formats
+  # | ------    | -------------
+  # | s         | empty string, or quoted empty string if alternative flag # is used
+  # | p         | 'undef', or quoted '"undef"' if alternative flag # is used
+  # | n         | 'nil', or 'null' if alternative flag # is used
+  # | dxXobB    | 'NaN'
+  # | eEfgGaA   | 'NaN'
+  # | v         | 'n/a'
+  # | V         | 'N/A'
+  # | u         | 'undef', or 'undefined' if alternative # flag is used
+  #
+  # ### Default (value)
+  # 
+  # | Format    | Default formats
+  # | ------    | ---------------
+  # | d D       | 'default' or 'Default', alternative form # causes value to be quoted
+  # | s         | same as d
+  # | p         | same as d
+  #
+  # ### Array & Tuple
+  #
+  # | Format    | Array/Tuple Formats
+  # | ------    | -------------
+  # | a         | formats with `[ ]` delimiters and `,`, alternate form `#` indents nested arrays/hashes
+  # | s         | same as a
+  # | p         | same as a
+  #
+  # See "Flags" `<[({\|` for formatting of delimiters, and "Additional parameters for containers; Array and Hash" for
+  # more information about options.
+  #
+  # The alternate form flag `#` will cause indentation of nested array or hash containers. If width is also set
+  # it is taken as the maximum allowed length of a sequence of elements (not including delimiters). If this max length
+  # is exceeded, each element will be indented.
+  #
+  # ### Hash & Struct
+  #
+  # | Format    | Hash/Struct Formats
+  # | ------    | -------------
+  # | h         | formats with `{ }` delimiters, `,` element separator and ` => ` inner element separator unless overridden by flags 
+  # | s         | same as h
+  # | p         | same as h
+  # | a         | converts the hash to an array of [k,v] tuples and formats it using array rule(s)
+  # 
+  # See "Flags" `<[({\|` for formatting of delimiters, and "Additional parameters for containers; Array and Hash" for
+  # more information about options.
+  #
+  # The alternate form flag `#` will format each hash key/value entry indented on a separate line.
+  #
+  # ### Type
+  # 
+  # | Format    | Array/Tuple Formats
+  # | ------    | -------------
+  # | s        | The same as p, quoted if alternative flag # is used
+  # | p        | Outputs the type in string form as specified by the Puppet Language
+  #
+  # ### Flags
+  #
+  # | Flag     | Effect 
+  # | ------   | ------
+  # | (space)  | space instead of + for numeric output (- is shown), for containers skips delimiters
+  # | #        | alternate format; prefix 0x/0x, 0 (octal) and 0b/0B for binary, Floats force decimal '.'. For g/G keep trailing 0.
+  # | +        | show sign +/- depending on value's sign, changes x,X, o,b, B format to not use 2's complement form
+  # | -        | left justify the value in the given width
+  # | 0        | pad with 0 instead of space for widths larger than value
+  # | <[({\|   | defines an enclosing pair <> [] () {} or \| \| when used with a container type
+  #
+  # 
+  # ### Additional parameters for containers; Array and Hash
+  #
+  # For containers (Array and Hash), the format is specified by a hash where the following keys can be set:
+  # * `'format'` - the format specifier for the container itself
+  # * `'separator'` - the separator string to use between elements, should not contain padding space at the end
+  # * `'separator2'` - the separator string to use between association of hash entries key/value
+  # * `'string_formats'´ - a map of type to format for elements contained in the container
+  # 
+  # Note that the top level format applies to Array and Hash objects contained/nested in an Array or a Hash.
+  #
+  # Given format mappings are merged with (default) formats and a format specified for a narrower type
+  # wins over a broader.
