Subject: Pikchr in Pandoc
Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2021 04:42:09 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YBeGoc/cMhn7sLG8@mx.shearer.org> (raw)

I have not noticed mention of Pikchr here, and I think it is relevant to
recent discussion of diagrams and also GSoC.

https://pikchr.org/ is a simple plain-text markup language for diagrams
that produces SVG. It is a slightly modified version of Brian
Kernighan's PIC language from 40 years ago, updated to make it safe to
use on the web.

Pikchr is ideal for use in Markdown - see the examples at 
https://pikchr.org/home/skn_default/doc/trunk/doc/examples.md , or the 
same examples in darkmode:
https://pikchr.org/home/skn_ardoise/doc/trunk/doc/examples.md . Click on
each diagram to see the plain text source code.

Pikchr is implemented in a single C source file with no dependencies,
intended for embedding within as many tools as possible.
