It's a shame to see that comment getting modded down. It's absolutely valid and correct. The three examples given in that other comment are pretty much unknown.

While Haskell has seen some usage, of course, we really haven't seen any major and widely-used non-compiler software developed using it. It's perfectly legitimate to point this out, and using very obscure counterexamples doesn't change this reality.
- saryant 12y ago> It's perfectly legitimate to point this out There's a difference between pointing it out and being a jerk while pointing it out. Hence the downvotes.
- xooyoozoo 12y agoI don't use or know about any of the other tools mentioned, but Pandoc isn't exactly someone's pet project. It may be niche, but it's not unknown. If you need to convert markdown/rest/latex/etc to pdf/html/epub/etc, Pandoc's gonna come up.
