Hi Konrad,
> Yes I see it now \ref{set} does what I want.
sorry for the confusion, the syntax is actually \{ref:set} which fits
well with the existing \{http: way of handling links. You were too
quick and discovered my experiment before I settled on a solution;-)

I welcome any suggestions on this. I prefer the TeX style markup for
most things but not sure about things like tables, <pre>, <lisp> and
maybe lists... When things get big, it gets easier to miss } and the
hmtl style markup is more explicit and reliable?

Yes, but that is more difficult to implement as there is lots of
special arbitrary cases to handle suddenly. I would rather stick with
the picoLisp tradition and keep it simple. When somebody works with
picoLisp, a bit of markup cannot be too difficult:-)

picoWiki does not output the markup directly. It is parsed first and
only if it understood, then it is "interpreted" and output. I don't
think there is a danger of injecting something, or at least should not
if I escape all i/o correctly.
Cheers,
Tomas
