The more I think about it, the more I like it.  Given ODF standards, we should 
be able to whip something out with XSLT fairly easily.  As a proof of concept, 
it could start as a generic preprocessor that gets fed different XSL files for 
different underlying compilers.

Once upon a time, when I was programming on a NeXT box, I saw that
one could have his Objective-C .h and .m files be RTF files.
The compiler would ignore fonts, styles, and colors. I am now having
odd
dreams of a programming language where fonts, styles, and colors are
significant. Instead of writing a[3], one would write a (subscript)3.

They're fitting me for my straitjacket now.

P.S. Is there a J-Intercal yet?
