Since it’s an upgrade of markdown, you should have called it "markup".

This sounds to me like it might benefit from some sort of "hypertext" functionality to allow for easy linking of documents

Now you're cooking with gas. Maybe it could be some sort of semantic markup language so we can separate and annotate things like titles, headers, links, and all of that stuff.

This is very interesting. I imagine the links of these documents to each other could be visualized as a web of some sort.

I would like to include some dynamic content in my documents. Could we include some kind of simple scripting language?

Maybe call it something like that really popular, Java language? But of course, have it share no concepts with Java, because that would be too straightforward.

Price accordingly.

"updoc" is still my favourite joke name. A long time ago (predating E lang's updoc afaict) I wrote a toy markup for semi-technical docs, named so with the specific intention of dropping it casually into conversation. Still funny :D

See, that's the Markdown-Word spiral i was talking about...

I chuckled
