AFT Description

An easy to use and free document preparation system AFT (Almost Free Text) is a free document preparation system and it is mostly free form meaning that there is little intrusive markup. AFT source documents look a lot like plain old ASCII text.AFT has a few rules for structuring your document and these rules have more to do with formatting your text rather than embedding commands.Right now, AFT produces pretty good HTML, LaTeX, lout and RTF. It can, in fact, be coerced into producing all types of output (e.g. roll-your-own XML). All that needs to be done is to edit a rule file. You can even customize your own HTML rule files for specialized output. Requirements: · Perl 5.6 or or later What's New in This Release: aft-html.dat and aft-tex.dat: · Removed the historical hack: using \ to produce a line break. This was never documented, so it shouldn't cause too much pain to have it removed. If it does cause pain, let me know. You could always use a pragma to (re)implement this feature/hack. · In the meantime... A new rule element: LineBreak has been introduced so that internal reliance on \ goes away. LineBreak has not been exposed to the end user (yet). AFT.pm: · Fixed a small bug concerning line continuations in verbatim mode: Line continuations are no longer parsed when in verbatim mode. What you type is what you should get.
