rationale:
MMDS is a powerful text transformation system. Using plain text as
input, it can be used to produce professionally typeset documents in
PostScript and PDF using the LaTeX typesetting system. With the same
input, it can also produce HTML for web pages, presentation slides,
and more. MMDS differs from other tools in that it tries to infer
the desired markup from the document, instead of requiring the user
to insert all kinds of cryptic instructions.
MMDS is a major revision of the Squirrel Document System, a.k.a.
mh_doc, that I wrote in 1993-1995. It has been in production since
then, but was never released to the public.
MMDS has been reworked to the Perl5 modules model, and is mostly
plugin based. Additional input formats (e.g., POD, XML) can be added
seamlessly, and output formats (e.g., XML, OOo) as well. It is
envisioned that several modules will be added to the MMDS::
hierarchy in the near future.
