Libdivecomputer always uses metric units internally. But when reverse
engineering a device that stores everything using imperial units, it's
very convenient to be able to switch the output to imperial units too.
The RAW output format exports each dive to a raw (binary) file. To
output multiple files, the filename is interpreted as a template and
should contain one or more placeholders.
The new output interface provides the necessary infrastructure to add
support for multiple output formats. Due to the abstract interface, each
new format will require only minimal changes in the application itself.
