ANSEML is ANother S-Expression Markup Language inspired by XML format.
The library provides a simple API to work with documents and a tool to convert the document to HTML format.
The document format is pretty straightforward.
- Each ANSEML document has exactly one single root element, which encloses all the other elements.
- Each element may or may not have a set of attributes.
More specifically, the format is following:
(:tag-name
attr-map?
body)
Where attr-map? is an associative array of { key value } pairs,
where key is keyword and value is one of the following primitives: string, integer, float; and body contains zero or more primitives or enclosed elements.
Here are few examples:
(:root
{ :id "Root" }
"Here is a number:" 123
"And here is the text:"
(:text
"Some text")
:br
(:text
"Another text"))
Note that you don't need to put parenthesis around the element consisting only of a tag-name.
