"""
Make use of a corpus.

The advanced-API provides extra functionality of top of the core of TF.
The most notable things are downloading corpus data and methods for (pretty)
display corpus material.

The real power of the advanced API is unleashed when there are well-tuned configuration
settings for a corpus, and possibly some supporting application code and CSS styling.

This power can be invoked by a very simple command: `use("org/repo")`.

For a detailed description, see `tf.about.usefunc`.
