SGML, on which HTML and XML is based, has had the features the author is looking for since before 1986. No need to pull a 927 and invent yet another markup language. Table of content generation: easy using link processes (= transformation rule pipelines for filtering source markup into eg. ToC or other nav) Text variables, optionally in external files: entities Custom Wiki syntaxes for translating markdown etc. into regular markup: short reference delimiters See my page at http://sgmljs.net/docs/sgmlrefman.html http://sgmljs.net/docs/sgmlrefman.html
