There are multiple packages. There is no consensus on which to pick,
*if any*. Existing modules apparently include writers, which are
necessarily opinionated (as is formatting of C, Python, html, ...). As
I just noted in the discussion, the stdlib does not have an html writer.
If I'm parsing this correctly, python supports something called a
"writer", which does not mean "somebody who writes python".
Since I've never heard of this[1], I searched on:
python writer
but got stuff about how to write python and how to use python to write
to files.
Assuming that there is a python construct called a writer, could
somebody point me to somewhere that I could read up on them?
[1] Well, I've used csv.DictWriter() which might be an instance.
