The reason to do animation is caricature. Good caricature picks out the essense of the statement and removes everything else.... – Brad Bird, writer and director, The Incredibles (The Incredibles DVD, behind the scenes, character design)

WIX - text markup format inspired by TEX and wiki markup

WIX (via) - text markup format inspired by TEX and wiki markup.

Unlike every known wiki format, WIX has a formal grammar rather than an ad-hoc parser. This means that its parsing behavior is fully specified, unambiguous, and predictable.

Unfortunately I don't particularly like some of the markup choices. For instance, I like my italics like *this* and my bold like **this**.
