With SGML, "What You See Isn't All You Get"
|

|
|
Dear Keith,
|
|
|
|
This memo is being written to demonstrate the power and simplicity of
|
|
the SGML markup minimization and WYSIWYG support.
|
|
|
|
Although only one tag is visible in the document (to identify an optional
|
|
"carbon copy" recipient), the SGML parser recognizes 15 different
|
|
element types. This allows each element to be formatted differently;
|
|
for example, the start and end of a quotation can have differing
|
|
curved quotation marks (the normal typesetting convention), even though
|
|
identical straight quotation marks were used as the WYSIWYG entry convention.
|
|
|
|
Yours truly,
|
|
|
|
Charles F. Goldfarb
