Corpus formatter

Pimlico provides a data browser to make it easy to view documents in a tarred document corpus. Some datatypes provide a way to format the data for display in the browser, whilst others provide multiple formatters that display the data in different ways.

This module allows you to use this formatting functionality to output the formatted data as a corpus. Since the formatting operations are designed for display, this is generally only useful to output the data for human consumption.
