Module tools

The tools module is the placeholder for classes that give access to the Composite tools, i.e. the controller (the intelligence) behind a tool node.

Nodes for which the tool controller is exposed in Python have an "ext" attribute (for "extension") which provides methods to invoke the tool's higher functionality, similar to what is offered in the tool's graphical user interface.

This module is not really meant to be imported directly in user scripts and is pretty much empty if imported on its own prior to accessing tool nodes because the tool classes get injected in this module on demand, that is, when an instance of the tool node is accessed or created through Python.
