Neat software

Via Matt, Burn to the Brim (fit more on a CD), via Matt again, Pivot, a GPL, PHP-based blogging tool, and via Oliver, htmlArea, a really good-looking wysiwyg editor that works in your browser. Right now it's only IE, but I saw it elsewhere (I don't remember where, and Syndirella doesn't have a search feature yet) and someone said that it should work in Mozilla soon.

I'm having such an awful day

At least I get to watch 24 on DVD with my dad now. We both need to relax today.

Update: Good episode, now I need to blow something up (hey, there's a new patch out).

StructuredText, LaTeX, and DocBook

As I make (good) progress on my StructuredText parser, I'm beginning to look into other document formatting languages, like LaTeX and DocBook, so that I can get a feel for those languages' mindsets.^[1]

Eventually I'd like to be able to have translators for StructuredText to HTML, LaTeX, DocBook, etc., so I'm beginning my education with those

Here's the The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX 2e (PDF)

Here's DocBook: The Definitive Guide, available to read online (DocBook sources available too )

Footnotes:
[1]: One question I have is, for instance: in languages other than HTML, are sub-lists considered part of a list item like they are in HTML?
