SiSU Markup syntax

sisu
  Data text markup (alternative to available html subset)

:A~ heading/title               [levels :A~ to :C~ available]

1~filename heading             [segmentation level, levels 1~ to 3~ available ]

  !{emphasis}!

  *{bold text}*

  _{underscore}_

  /{italics}/

  "{citation}"

  ^{superscript}^

  ,{subscript},

  +{inserted text}+

  -{strikethrough}-

  ------------------------------------------
  Indentation and bullets

_1                             indent paragraph one level

_2                             indent paragraph two steps

  ...

_9                             indent paragraph nine steps

_*                             bullet text

_1*                            bullet text, first indent

  ------------------------------------------
  Numbered List (not to be confused with headings/titles, (document structure))

# numbered list                numbered list 1., 2., 3, etc.

_# numbered list               numbered list indented a., b., c., d., etc.

  ------------------------------------------
  Endnotes

  ~{ endnote }~                  endnote~{ self contained endnote marker & endnote in one }~

  ---
  alternative endnote pair notation

  ~^                             endnote marker
^~    endnote text following the paragraph in which the marker occurs

  ------------------------------------------
  Links

    A url within text is automatically hyperlinked to itself, ie raw urls within text are automatically marked up.

    http://url.org               would be hyperlinked to itself

    { [text to link] }http://url.org

    { image.png }http://url.org

    { image.png }image    { tux.png 64x80 }image                        width x height

  Linked image

    { SiSU Geek Writer }http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/                     url example

    { tux.png 64x80 "a better way" }http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/     image example with all options

  shortcut - hyper-linked text with endnote providing the url information

    {~^ [text to link] }http://url.org         maps to   { [text to link] }http://url.org ~{ http://url.org }~
    which produces hyper-linked text within a document/paragraph, with an endnote providing the url for the text location used in the hyperlink

    manual location marker/tagging at present only in html to produce <a name="[name]"> (use sparingly)

    *~[name]

    note at a heading level the same is automatically achieved by providing names to headings 5 and 6 i.e. 5~[name] and 6~[name] or in the case of auto-heading numbering, without further intervention.

  ------------------------------------------

  ~#    unnumbered paragraph (place marker at end of paragraph)

  -#    unnumbered paragraph, delete when not required (place marker at end of paragraph) [used in dummy headings, eg. for segmented html]

  ------------------------------------------
  %     add a comment to text, that will be removed prior to processing (place marker at beginning of line)

  ------------------------------------------

  There are some things to be aware of <br> may be used, but urls occuring before or after a break must have a space. The vim syntax highlighter catches most of the rules...

  ------------------------------------------

  More HELP on Markup markup help is available on:

    document wide instructions: headers (document structure)

    general text markup: headings; endnotes; tables

  configuration and customisation

    document or site wide customisation: customise; skin

TABLES


table{ [number of columns] [column width %];[column width %]

[table content, line breaks are important see example below]

}table
----
This is a sample table:
-----------------------

table{ c3; 40; 30; 30;

This is a table
this would become column two of row one
column three of row one is here

And here begins another row
column two of row two
column three of row two, and so on

}table

PREFORMATTED TEXT

poem{

  [Text here]

}poem

HEADERS

Header tags appear at the beginning of a document and provide meta information on the document (such as the Dublin Core), or information as to how the document as a whole is to be processed.
All header instructions take the form @tagname: All Dublin Core meta tags are available
@indentifier: information
where the "identifier" is a tag recognised by the program, and the "information" or "instructions" belong to the tag/indentifier specified
The { form was introduced to take advantage of vim folds, and its use is reserved primarily for document structural instructions: namely header and heading tags (also a footnote/endnote option).
This is a sample header (Dublin Core in fuschia, other information headers in cyan, markup instructions in red):

@title: My Title - This is now the Title of the Document and used as such

@subtitle: The Subtitle if any

@creator: [or ~author] Ralph Amissah

@subject: Document production and management (or whatever your subject)

@description:

@publisher:

@owner:

@keywords: text document generation processing management latex pdf structured xml citation [your keywords here, used for example by rss feeds, and in sql searches]

@abstract: [paper abstract, placed after table of contents]

@comment: [...]

@prefix_a: [prefix is placed just before table of contents - not implemented]

@prefix_b: or @prefix: [prefix is placed just after table of contents]

@cvs: $Id$ [used by cvs to embed versioning (revision control) information into document, cvs can usefully provide a history of updates to a document (though I no longer use it for programming, preferring darcs and arch/tla cvs performs this function for documents quite well) ]

@toc: PART; CHAPTER; SECTION; ARTICLE; none; none;
optional, where document structure can be defined by a match words or regular expression (the regular expression is assumed to start at the beginning of a line of text)
default markers 1~ to 6~ can be used within text instead, without this header tag, and may be used to suppliment the instructions provided in this header tag if provided

@level: newpage=3; breakpage=4 [paragraph level, used by latex to breakpages, the page is optional eg. in newpage]

@markup: num_top=4 [various markup instructions, eg: num_top=4 headings tobe numbered, starting at heading level 4... the default is to provide 3 levels, as in 1 level 4, 1.1 level 5, 1.1.1 level 6, markup to be merged within level]

@vocabulary: name of taxonomy/vocabulary/wordlist to use against document

@skin: skin_doc_[name_of_desired_document_skin]

@links: http://google.com; Google;

1~ Top level heading [this is usually the same as the title @title: ]

2~ Second level heading [this is a heading level divider]

3~ Third level heading [this is a heading level divider]

4~ Top level heading preceeding substantive text of document or sub-heading 5, the heading level that would normally be marked 1. or 2. or 3. etc. in a document

5~ Second level heading preceeding substantive text of document or sub-heading 6, the heading level that would normally be marked 1.1 or 1.2 or 1.3 or 2.1 etc in a document

6~ Third level heading preceeding substantive text of document, that would normally be marked 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 or 1.2.1 or  2.1.1 etc. in a document

SAMPLE DOCUMENT

For sample marked up documents see the directory
  markup_samples

@title: Working Sample Document

@subtitle: Demonstrating markup

@creator: Ralph Amissah

@date:

@markup: num_top=4

@links:

1~ A Sample Document

2~ just for fun

4~ This is Chapter One or Article One

Ordinary Text follows here. The Title would be a Chapter or Article depending on the type of document you were working to produce.

4~ This would be Chapter Two or Article Two

And so on.

Assuming sisu is configured properly so it has been instructed where to put the work files and ouput files, you would generate this text once saved, with the suffix .s3 if saved as example.s3, by typing sisu -mhwxp example.s3 while in the directory in which the file is saved.

_1 -m initial processing, -h html (css based), -w wordmap for html, -x xml, -p pdf output, generated via latex, there are of course additional options

_1 for a listing type: sisu ~ commands

_1 for an outline of sisu markup type: sisu ~ markup

The example ends here.

-------------------

Composite Documents

It  is  possible  to build a document by requiring other documents.  The documents required may complete documents that could be  gener ated  independently,  or they could be markup snippets, prepared so as to be easily available to be placed within another text. If  the calling document is a master document (built mainly from other doc uments), by convention it should be named with the suffix .r1 , .r2 ,  or .r3 .s1 , .s2 , or .s3 , and if markup snippets .si. A tempo rary file of the composite document is built  prior  to  processing with the same prefix and the suffix .t1 , .t2 , or .t3

basic markup for importing a document into another,
[note placement is at start of the line, no spaces despite presentation below]

  r{ filename }

  { filename.si }require

  << { filename.si } #for vim folds

importing a document with textlink syntax

  |filename.si|@|^|require

  << |filename.si|@|^| #for vim folds


importing a document with thlnk syntax

  <url:filename.si>require

  << <url:filename.si> #for vim folds


remote  documents  may  be called with the thlnk syntax (or regular
sisu syntax), e.g.

   << <url:http://www.url.com/filename.si>
