it appears you don't really know what you're talking about, as both markdown and restructured _are_ "true markup languages". you want to invent a new one. fine. go ahead. i did it myself... -bowerbird p.s. don, restructured text is older than markdown, and textile too, as far as i know... it's a reworking of "structured text", which is the granddaddy of all the light markup languages. and -- by the way -- z.m.l. is older than markdown. indeed, one of the few appearances of charlz on this listserve was when he came to announce markdown as a z.m.l. clone...

No. Not a new mark up language. an encoding or transcription if you wish. Creating the "language" is not the problem. the code base for the tools and getting them to be used by a broad audience. I do not have the time to do so. DP has the infra structure. But what they are missing we have be there and back again. regards Keith.
