This class serves as an abstractization of a development module. Each class wanting to deal with development modules must go through this class. The class provides a module name, revision information and absolute path to the current file containing the module.

future plans: this class will provide the modules content and the module itself could be stored inside an RDBMS.

-make caching of the lilypond parsing information so that I wont have to parse each time again.

-move the linkit routine out of here!!! (where the &%*^?)

-the routine get_sgml_temp_tag returns the tag content without processing. Add text processing option to it (text wrapping etc...).
