    logic is used to find a function to format an given object.

    1. The object is introspected to see if it has a method with the name
       :attr:`print_method`. If is does, that object is passed to that method
       for formatting.
    2. If no print method is found, three internal dictionaries are consulted

       and :attr:`deferred_printers`.

    Users should use these dictionaries to register functions that will be
    used to compute the format data for their objects (if those objects don't
    have the special print methods). The easiest way of using these
    dictionaries is through the :meth:`for_type` and :meth:`for_type_by_name`
    methods.
