Please make the actual text used a template some way or another. I may want `map` instead of `inline`. --[[madduck]]

-I have create a patch to tag.pm for add the option for auto create tag pages.
-A new setting is used to enable or disable auto-create tag pages, `tag_autocreate`.
-The new tag file is created during the preprocess phase.
-The new tag file is then complied during the change phase.
