MinML: Concise but General Markup Syntax
- brynosaurus 4y agoAn experimental markup language that tries to achieve terseness comparable to Markdown while preserving the generality of HTML or XML.
- theamk 4y agoLooks somewhat similar to Latex syntax, but with \ prefix removed -- anything that looks like a "command" is parsed like a command, otherwise it's a regular text. How does "command" look? There are a bunch of ways, you can have command[text], command{options}[text], [symbol], -[comment], "[autoquote], ![meta], etc... (and how does one mark up a part of the word? There are "space-sucking" modifiers on the "command".) The main advantage of this is that it outputs HTML/XML, so there is no need for new tags -- add it as pre-processor to any XML-consuming code.
