-# Collections Plugins Directory
-
-This directory can be used to ship various plugins inside an Ansible collection. Each plugin is placed in a folder that
-is named after the type of plugin it is in. It can also include the `module_utils` and `modules` directory that
-would contain module utils and modules respectively.
-
-Here is an example directory of the majority of plugins currently supported by Ansible:
-
-```

 ### `bytes_to_hex()` function
 
 Since binascii.hexlify doesn't support a second parameter, which would define a seperator (e.g. ":") for hex strings in older Python versions like 2.6 and 2.7, we implemeted a small function to get similar results.
 
-**Parameter:** A __bytes__ object that represent a hexadecimal value (e.g. b'\\x82S \\x11\\xc7s\\xa7^*w\\xc1\\xdf\"\\xe4#\\xb4\\xc4P\\xba\\xcf')
