    A light markup language

  • djota

    A Djot implementation in Prolog

  • Djot is the markup syntax that is used for the documentation of Scryer Prolog, using a parser written in Prolog:

    https://github.com/aarroyoc/djota

    It works well so far. One of the few limitations I noticed so far pertains to the formatting of tables. For instance, consider the table used in library(format) to describe control sequences:

    https://github.com/mthom/scryer-prolog/blob/b0566e41503a6c8d...

    It contains several entries that span multiple lines, yet are meant to denote only a single row of the table, such as:

        % | `~Nr`    |  where N is an integer between 2 and 36: format the            |
