| | XML Matters: reStructuredText |
 | | The document format called reStructuredText has been adopted as one of the official source formats for Python documentation, but is also useful for other types of documentation. |
 | | reStructuredText is an interesting hybrid of technologies -- in syntax and appearance it is similar to other "almost-plaintext" formats, but in semantics and API it is very close to XML. |
 | | You may transform a reStructuredText document into a tree of nodes that can be manipulated in a DOM-like fashion. |
