>You've provided a useful Programming Language feature definition
correlation with XML features.
If going strictly from standards, a Markup Language is a language, but it
is not a "Programming" language?<

Roy - for the record - the simple fact is that XML can be used to model
EITHER content and its metadata, or processes and processing steps (e.g.
SMIL).
Strictly Excel spreadsheets are 'programs', as is something like LET A=1+2
Whenever confronted by this is usually works to consider the different
gendre
of programming languages - byte code, assembly, low-level, high-level, 4GL,
5GL, Job Control and macros, hardware engineering logic, and now Markups -
to determine what the person really means by 'programming language'....
