[ANN] Skribilo, a Schemey Document Authoring System

[ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Courtès)]

Hello,

I am pleased to announce version 0.9.0 of Skribilo, the first alpha
release of this document authoring system.

  http://dl.sv.nongnu.org/releases/skribilo/skribilo-0.9.0.tar.gz.sig

The SHA1 sums for these two files are:

Skribilo is a free document production tool that takes a structured
document representation as its input and renders that document in a
variety of output formats: HTML for on-line browsing, and Lout or LaTeX
for high-quality hard copies.

The input document can use Skribilo's markup language to provide
information about the document's structure, which is similar to HTML or
LaTeX and does not require expertise.  Alternatively, it can use a
simpler, ``markup-less'' format that borrows from Emacs' outline mode
and from other conventions used in emails, Usenet and text.

Skribilo can be thought of as a document programming framework for the
Scheme programming language that may be used to automate a variety of
document generation tasks.  It uses GNU Guile 1.8 as the underlying
Scheme implementation.

Skribilo is a follow-up to Manuel Serrano's and Érick Gallesio's
Skribe [0] (thank you!).  It is based on the code base of Skribe 1.2d
but differs in important ways.  User-visible differences are summarized
in the `NEWS' file.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
