Description: Currently only functions to enhance plain text with HTML tags.

Wrapper class for various parsing routines, that convert plain text to HTML.
They try to recognize cites, URLs, plain text formattting like *bold* etc.
See <http://www.bucksch.org/1/projects/mozilla/16507/> for a description.
