 #: A dictionary of supported date formats.
+#:
+#: The following formats are supported:
+#:
+#: ``iso``
+#:    ISO format ``YYYY-MM-DD``
+#: ``le``
+#:    little endian with slashes: ``DD/MM/YYYY``
+#: ``de``
+#:    german date format: ``DD.MM.YYYY``
+#: ``us``
+#:    middle endian format common in the U.S.: ``MM/DD/YYYY``
+#:
+#: Furthermore we support for input widgets an additional year
+#: marker. Input date widgets with this marker provide also a year
+#: selector, handy for dates of birth etc.
+#:
+#: The year-supporting formats are similar to the basic versions above:
+#:
+#: ``iso-year``
+#:    ISO format ``YYYY-MM-DD``
+#: ``le-year``
+#:    little endian with slashes: ``DD/MM/YYYY``
+#: ``de-year``
+#:    german date format: ``DD.MM.YYYY``
+#: ``us-year``
+#:    middle endian format common in the U.S.: ``MM/DD/YYYY``
+#:    
+#: For date display widgets there is naturally no difference between a
+#: year and non-year setting (you can for instance use 'le' or 'le-year'
+#: with the same output).
