I re-read that link as well; something that amused me is that to this day,
when writing out emails or other screeds of text, I tend to delimit
'blocks', for my own benefit, with '{{{' and '}}}'
blah blah blah, here I am, chatting about some code, say
the program looks like this:
{{{ <I might have a description here>
int c;
char * p;
/* etc */
}}}
I had forgotten that this more-or-less comes from Origami!
I guess now is the time to ask about an import or language setting that
understand this? Even though I no longer write occam, I like the format
markers and it would be cute to be able to import stuff like this into Leo
{{{ dot-sig'ly yours
J^n
}}}
