Bug#533819: ITP: xfpt -- generate XML from plain text
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
* Package name : xfpt
Version : 0.06
Upstream Author : Philip Hazel
License : GPLv2+
Programming Lang: C
Description : generate XML from plain text
xfpt is a program that reads a file of plain text that contains
relatively simple markup, and outputs an XML file. It is intended to
simplify the management of XML data. It is not a program that attempts
to turn a plain text document into XML. Markup within text is
introduced by ampersand characters, but is otherwise "soft". You can
define what follows the ampersand, for example, &" to generate a
"quote" element. There is also a macro facility that allows for higher
level concepts such as chapters, displays, tables, etc.
xfpt is used for building exim's documentation.
