RE: SGML-DTD for WML?

["David Harris" <nospam@thanx>]

Hi

Ditto that on the short tags. They should be kept, and I love how the
redirection tags are almost like a little pictorial of what they mean.
"..TAG>> <<.."

Anyway, check out the wml::std::tags include file. It translates the non
SGML compliant tags into nice SGML compliant forms if that is your thing.
For example, the following tags are defined:

-----
<dump NAME>
<enter NAME> ... <leave>
<divert NAME> ... </divert>
-----

Opps, the <enter> .. <leave> pair is not standard (I don' think), but that
could be easily changed to <enter NAME> ... </enter>.
Check out the man page on that include file at:

Noooooooooooo! Please keep the old methods. I love wml for that short
tags. I like to type as few as possible to archive my goal.
