Just something i wanted Linuxers to be aware of.

I want to write a reader for multiple lightweight markup languages. It must only support pretty basic "rich text" features (bold, indent, lists, such things), complicated formatting and not-matching tags will be entirely ignored.

I don't want to use a intermediate markup like pandoc does, since it should not convert but only display.
Which is why i thought of using a "mapping file" for each language. Guess it should support hierarchies, since formats like Markdown require context (prior line has this and next line that), so it will likely be in YAML/TOML/JSON.

Is this sufficient, or is there any better approach for simple addition of markup languages?
Or other projects doing similiar, i could learn from?

The context is a simple mbox/eml reader for a start (html and markdown), and the experience/ideas will be used in a bigger project later, with more language support.

This is why i like webshops, for the info and sorting they provide and hate them for the need to compare, eating my day to save me from a bad experience.

A .tar archive is basically only the files cat'ed together, with a header and index added, right?

And a .tar.gz takes forever to modify, because it needs to first extract the .tar.

So why is there no archive format that just cat'es the compressed files together?

Looking for one for the initial setup of my little homeserver, because i bought a non-APU CPU (server needs no GPU, amirite?).

The race may already be lost, but still.
