Hello Sean and all

While Markdown/textile are pretty light, my personal site isn't pretty :-)

(The Llamas are a family joke). The method currently in use is described here

http://sohcahtoa.org.uk/pages/publish-a-web-site-with-bash-scripts.html

More ambitious 'static page' html generators, probably for people doing *large* 
sites with greater expectations as to 'design' and production values.
