ContentType (jPicEdt 1.4.1_03 API documentation)

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultContentType, EepicContentType, LatexContentType, PstricksContentType
```
public interface ContentType
```
Specifies a content-type (aka mime-type) for a Drawing document created by an editor-kit.
This interface is aimed at lumping together top-level classes needed by a given content-type in the View-Model-Control framework : so far this involves obtaining an instance of EditorKit appropriate for the given content-type, as well as a corresponding FormatterFactory. A configure method is provided for conveniently configuring editor-kits and factories before use.
[SR:pending] better move to jpicedt.graphic.io ?
