+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The _tep_print_event_time()_ function prints the timestamp of the _record_ using
+the given _event_ information as trace sequence in _s_. The _tep_ argument is
+trace event parser context. The _use_trace_clock_ argument indicates if
+the tep->trace_clock should be used for parsing the timestamp.
+
+The _tep_print_event_task()_ function prints the task command, pid and CPU of
+the _record_ using the given _event_ information as trace sequence in _s_.
+The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The _tep_event_info()_ function parses the raw data from the _record_ using
+the given _event_ information and writes the print format as trace sequence in
+_s_.
+
+The _tep_print_event_data()_ function writes the _event_ name  as trace
+sequence in _s_ and calls _tep_event_info()_ to parse and write the raw data
+from the _record_. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The _tep_print_event()_ function prints the _record_ information as trace
+sequence in _s_. It finds the corresponding event and calls
+_tep_print_event_task()_,_tep_print_event_time()_ and _tep_print_event_data()_
+to parse and print the information.
+The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. The _use_trace_clock_
+argument indicates if the tep->trace_clock should be used for parsing
+the timestamp.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct trace_seq seq;
+trace_seq_init(&seq);
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+void print_my_event(struct tep_record *record)
+{
+	struct tep_event *event;
+
+	/* print all event information */
+	trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+	tep_print_event(tep, &seq, record, TRUE);
+
+	event = tep_find_event_by_record(tep, record);
+
+	if (event != NULL) {
+		/* print event timestamp */
+		trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+		tep_print_event_time(tep, &seq, event, record, TRUE);
+
+		/* print event task information */
+		trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+		tep_print_event_task(tep, &seq, event, record);
+
+		/* print event name and raw data */
+		trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+		tep_print_event_data(tep, &seq, event, record);
+
+		/* print event raw data */
+		trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+		tep_event_info(&seq, event, record);
+	}
