+perl-HTML-Formatter
+
+HTML::Formatter is a base class for classes that take HTML and format
+it to some output format. When you take an object of such a base class
+and call $formatter-format( $tree )> with an HTML::TreeBuilder (or
+HTML::Element) object, they return the appropriately formatted string
+for the input HTML.
+
+HTML formatters are able to format a HTML syntax tree into various
+printable formats. Different formatters produce output for different
+output media. Common for all formatters are that they will return the
+formatted output when the format() method is called. The format()
+method takes a HTML::Element object (usually the HTML::TreeBuilder root
+object) as parameter.
