Scribble as Preprocessor🔗ℹ

Matthew Flatt
and Eli Barzilay

The scribble/text and scribble/html languages act as “preprocessor” languages for generating text or HTML. These preprocessor languages use the same @ syntax as the main Scribble tool (see Scribble: The Racket Documentation Tool), but instead of working in terms of a document abstraction that can be rendered to text and HTML (and other formats), the preprocessor languages work in a way that is more specific to the target formats.
