Description

I see a few issues already about the format of the page, which are also very difficult to work with, but do have workarounds.

However, a few things stand out beyond this

* Several of the formats are just listed as "maxprintsize)" or something similar, indicating some sort of error not being spotted before posting documentation
* None of the formats have spaces where they should be, e.g. ""session_guid%s-device_serial_number%u-client_cookie%s-""flags%llu-startup_duration%u-launch_mechanism%u-""app_launch_time%s-app_process_id%u-""app_name%s-module_path%s"" which makes troubleshooting or parsing very difficult as admins must then manually figure out where spaces should be.

This is sadly one of the few places that even document these logs, so having something reliable would be very helpful for those of us writing parsers for our own tools.
