"""Infrastructure for registering and firing callbacks on application events. Unlike :mod:`IPython.core.hooks`, which lets end users set single functions to be called at specific times, or a collection of alternative methods to try, callbacks are designed to be used by extension authors. A number of callbacks can be registered for the same event without needing to be aware of one another.
