[cl-typesetting-devel] Practical Common Lisp Colophon

As some of you may know I used cl-typesetting while working on  
Practical Common Lisp to generate PDFs that I could use for my own  
red-pen editing. (And which used to be on the web until the treeware  
version of the book came out.) Anyway, I just put up a cleaned up  
version of the code I used to parse my homebrew markup scheme as well  
as code that can take the output of that parser and generate PDFs  
using cl-typesitting and HTML using my own FOO library (the subject  
of Chapters 30 and 31 of PCL.) Anyway, I thought some of you might be  
interested in such a thing as it provides a piece of the typesetting  
puzzle that cl-typesitting does not, out of the box, provide. You can  
read about it at:

   http://www.gigamonkeys.com/lisp/markup/docs.pdf
   http://www.gigamonkeys.com/lisp/markup/docs.html

both of which were generated from:

   http://www.gigamonkeys.com/lisp/markup/docs.txt

which is in my homebrew markup scheme. Brief installation  
instructions are at the bottom of the documentation. If you try it,  
let me know how it goes.
