BBcode Web

Name: Anonymous 2011-08-07 12:03

I have to admit I am not the BBcode EXPERT like some of you here, but I propose the following:

What about a collaborative project to implement an alternative to webpages on the basis of BBcode?
It could run on http or be similar to Gopher or Usenet, just more practical for our proposes.... The first task will be to establish a consensus on the file(transfer)protocol.

I suggest using C99 for implementation.

Possibly we can come up with something that might be widely used in the future.

(encoding utf-8)
(css "lmltest.css")
(title Sample Light Markup Language document)
(emphasis Text) outside of parantheses is printed as is. Left parentheses are written using the (#code (lp)rp(rp)) escape sequence and right ones are written using the (#code (lp)lp(rp)) escape sequence.
As with (image "texlogo.png" TeX), newline characters delimit paragraphs. You can use (lp)br(rp) to go to the next line in a paragraph.

The following CSS was used for this document:
(#code (load-text "lmltest.css"))

The # prefix denotes a custom element that doesn't have semantic significance, as with HTML's span and div elements. The load-text form that causes the browser to fetch the file and insert it. I chose to keep CSS because it's actually pretty good.
What do you think? It's only a draft of course, but I think it's already way better than HTML. We could eventually add a scripting language that would use Lisp's list manipulation functions instead of the retarded DOM API.
