   45/** <module> Analyse format specifications
   46
   47This library parses the format specification  used by format/1, format/2
   48and format/3. The parsed  specification  can   be  used  to validate the
   49consistency of the  format  string  and   the  provided  arguments.  For
   50example:
   51
   52  ==
   53  ?- format_types('~d bottles of beer', Types).
   54  Types = [integer].
   55  ==
   56
   57@tbd    The current implementation does not support format_predicate/2.

   64%   Parse a format string. Each element of Spec is one of the following:
   65%
   66%    * text(Text)
   67%    Text sent to the output as is
   68%    * escape(Num,Colon,Action)
   69%    A format escape. Num represents the optional numeric portion of
   70%    an esape. Colon represents the optional colon in an escape.
   71%    Action is an atom representing the action to be take by this
   72%    escape.
