class documentation

class Element:

A very simple DOM-like representation for parsed epytext documents. Each epytext document is encoded as a tree whose nodes are Element objects, and whose leaves are strings. Each node is marked by a tag and zero or more attributes, attribs. Each attribute is a mapping from a string key to a string value.
