// Abstract interface for a reporter.
//
// Reporters are held by TrfObjects which call them to report their
// status when active. For example, a TrackFinder might report the list
// of extended tracks.
//
// The reporter subclass defines the format of the report. It might
// be text, ntuple or graphical display.
//
// Reporters inherit from ObjType so they can be constructed from OBS
// files.
//
// Reporting is accomplished with the overloaded free function report
// described below.
