I haven't used these systems in quite a while so I don't know what state they are in, but I still like the way they did things far better than any other system I've seen. Much, much easier to learn than LaTeX, but still very capable. Just wanted to comment.
Come to think of it, they might make a decent markup language for incode documentation too. And they really are easy to learn, at least to get off the ground with.
