-"""
-The WxmRibbon Bar is a core aspect of MeerK40t's interaction. To allow fully dynamic buttons we use the ribbonbar
-control widget built into meerk40t.
-
-Panels are created in a static fashion within this class. But the contents of those individual ribbon panels are defined
-in the kernel lookup.
-
-    service.register(
-        "button/control/Redlight",
-        {
-            ...<def>...
-        },
-    )
-
-This setup allows us to define a large series of buttons with a button prefix and the name of a panel it should be
-added to as well as a unique name. This defines within the meerk40t ecosystem a methodology of specifically creating
-dynamic buttons. When the service changes because of a switch in the device (for example) it will trigger the lookup
-listeners which will update their contents, triggering the update within this control.

+"""
+The WxmRibbon Bar is a core aspect of MeerK40t's interaction. To allow fully dynamic buttons we use the ribbonbar
+control widget built into meerk40t.
+
+Panels are created in a static fashion within this class. But the contents of those individual ribbon panels are defined
+in the kernel lookup.
+
+    service.register(
+        "button/control/Redlight",
+        {
+            ...<def>...
+        },
+    )
+
+This setup allows us to define a large series of buttons with a button prefix and the name of a panel it should be
+added to as well as a unique name. This defines within the meerk40t ecosystem a methodology of specifically creating
+dynamic buttons. When the service changes because of a switch in the device (for example) it will trigger the lookup
+listeners which will update their contents, triggering the update within this control.
