Andy Kopra 2ba7ceee7a Initial commit: Klammertext source distribution
Curated source subset assembled by klammertext-dev's doc/make_dist.sh: the Klammermachine (mac), the Standard Klammer Set (sks), the commands (com), editor plugins and install guides (doc), a test subset (tst), and lib/bin placeholders. Builds with 'make -C com'.

Klammertext

Klammertext is a markup language that produces multiple output formats — HTML, LaTeX/PDF, and plain text — from a single source description. Its core engine, the Klammermachine, is written in C++; the Standard Klammer Set (SKS) adds a default library of formatting and document-structuring operators on top.

Installing

Installation guides are in doc/install/:

  • Linux, from source — doc/install/linux_source_install.md
  • macOS, from source — doc/install/macos_source_install.md
  • Linux, container — doc/install/linux_container_install.md
  • macOS, container — doc/install/macos_container_install.md

Building from source

With a C++20 compiler and KLAMMERTEXT_HOME set to this directory:

make -C com

This builds the Klammermachine library (into lib/), the SKS components, and the three commands — ktext, kdesc, kdiag (into bin/). See the source-install guide for prerequisites (TeX Live for PDF output, Python, and so on).

Editor support

Syntax highlighting and editing support for Emacs and Sublime Text are in doc/edit/.
