.unparse_indent(value)

Accepts a valid ColdC data item as an argument, and returns a textual representation similar to the result of a toliteral() call, except in a more driver-friendly manner.

.unparse_indent_html(value)

Accepts a valid ColdC data item as an argument and calls .unparse_indent() with it. It then post-processes the data converting it to HTML. Conversions performed are converting various characters to the valid HTML entity and linking objects the web view of them via /bin/display.

.data_map(val, method, options[, @args])

Maps a method over elements of any data structure. You can use it to map a function inside a list on a frob, for instance. Options decide which data types and frob classes will be affected and which will be left alone. Options is a dict of [key, value] pairs.

['object, something]	If its an object, it calls the method from that object, otherwise it calls it from data value.
['list,1]	Map into lists.
['dictionary,1]	Map into dicts.
['frob,1]	Map into frobs. You must use the option 'class to specify the class to affect.
['all,1]	Affect all types.
[type, 1]	Affect the types not mentioned above.

.is_valid_type(type)

Given a symbol, returns true if it is a valid ColdC type, false if not.
