@@ -42,6 +42,30 @@ What is noteworthy here is that a single string is produced out of the nested Lisp syntax, and that string is therefore sent to the `*stdout*` stream using a single call to the `put-string` function. +Another nice feature of TL-WHO is that it has a "quiet" syntax free +of extraneous punctuation and nesting. A HTML tag is +written as a list headed by a keyword symbol, for instance `(:a)` +encodes `<a></a>`. If this keyword is followed by keyword-value +properties, those are the attributes: + + ::text + (:a :href "foo.html") + -> <a href="foo.html"></a> + + (:a :href "foo.html" :target "__blank") + -> <a href="foo.html" target="__blank"></a> + +Then any remaining material after the keyword-value pairs is +interpreted as the tag content. + + ::text + (:a :href "foo.html" :target "__blank" "foo") + -> <a href="foo.html">foo</a> + +All material that is not a tag or attribute keyword is an evaluated Lisp +expression, so no special syntax is needed to indicate evaluation. + + ## Documentation Users of TL-WHO may rely on the original CL-WHO API documentation. |
