+*Create a *.<format> output file if format is available. Available formats are: .dot, .puml, .plantuml, .mmd, .html.

+`pyreverse` `Run` was changed to no longer call `sys.exit()` in its `__init__`.
+You should now call `Run(args).run()` which will return the exit code instead.
+Having a class that always raised a `SystemExit` exception was considered a bug.
+
+Normal usage of pyreverse through the CLI will not be affected by this change.
