pygments.plugin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pygments plugin interface. By default, this tries to use
``importlib.metadata``, which is in the Python standard
library since Python 3.8, or its ``importlib_metadata``
backport for earlier versions of Python. It falls back on
``pkg_resources`` if not found. Finally, if ``pkg_resources``
is not found either, no plugins are loaded at all.
lexer plugins::
[pygments.lexers]
yourlexer = yourmodule:YourLexer

As you can see, you can define extensions for the formatter
with a leading slash.

yourstyle = yourstyle:YourStyle
filter plugin::
[pygments.filter]
yourfilter = yourfilter:YourFilter
