I made some big strides on Stylz last night. I'm thinking I can have a not-too-featureful Stylz to Xhtml converter within a couple weeks. From there it's a matter of creating an Xhtml to ePub converter and an Xhtml to PDF converter. Maybe in a few months we can stop using bloatware like Sigil, LyX, LibreOffice and MSWord, stop using settleware like Markdown and MultiMarkdown and all the Wiki languages, and write our long documents in styles-based, easy to type, plain text, with Stylz. That's what I'm aiming for.
