What This Plugin Does

For each control executed, after it is complete, the plugin emits a line to STDOUT like:

12/P/24/Control Title Here

When the run is complete, the single line 'EOF_MARKER' is emitted.

Where:

• 12 is the number of the control (12th seen out of all controls in all profiles)
• P indicates that it Passed (Also F = Failed, S = Skipped, E = Errored)
• 24 is the total number of controls in the run
• "Control Title Here" is the title (or if title is missing, id) of the last executed control
