Frankly speaking, reST provides a lot of expressive power if you want it, while still keeping document very readable and no DTDs, schemas, validation, fiddling with catalogs etc. :-D Otoh, number of tags in DocBook is overwhelming and, imgo, way too distracting for most documentation tasks, at least, for *my* use-cases.

Maybe someone with more Elisp skills will hook on reST. :-D Sincerely, Gour -- Gour | Zagreb, Croatia | GPG key: C6E7162D ----------------------------------------------------------------
