//! A general purpose signaling mechanism
//!
//! This mechanism allows inter-module communication, by letting your modules
//! register callbacks to listen for events generated by other modules. This
//! signaling mechanism is synchronous and non-threadsafe. If you need
//! ascynchronous threadsafe communication, instead consider relying on channels.
//!
//! The whole mechanism is built on the [`Signaler`](./struct.Signaler.html) type.
//! It serves both as a message sending facility and a way to register new callbacks
//! for these messages. It can be cloned and passed around between your modules with
//! `Rc`-like semantics.
//!
//! When sending a new signal with `Signaler::signal`, the provided value `E` will
//! be made accessible as a reference `&E` to all registered callback.
//!
//! Sending a signal or registering a new callback from within a callback is supported.
//! These will however take effect after the current signal is completely delivered.
//! Ordering of sent signals and callback registration is preserved.
