Which is why IBM created SGML which led to XML and then HTML...

  I was localizing for IBM back in the time. Actually the breakthrough for reduction in publication costs for IBM was the introductin of GML (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Generalized_Markup_Language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Generalized_Markup_Languag...), the predecessor for SGML.

  Actually, IBM didn't "invent" SGML, they participated. GML, which was invented by IBM in the person of Charles Goldfarb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Goldfarb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Goldfarb, was a major influence in SGML. And HTML came before XML.
