ack 9b0d0d7897 The ansi target, txt table styles, kdesc reference from ref/, typeface and table-width fixes (from dev fcec5e2e77ac)

Since the previous release: Machine::read_string() (the fs::path/std::string
overload pair split); kdesc -c and -u rendered from the ref/ reflection
klammerset; a fit column's tex width measured in TeX over every entry;
@typeface resolving to the family its css declares (a store directory name
now works in html) and hieroglyphs in @unicode_examples set in their
typeface; the ansi target -- plain text with the type styles a terminal can
show, identical to txt once the escape sequences are stripped -- with the
txt @table carrying :header_style, :style and :hline; @block anchoring,
@table spacing and the Image_quality state variable; and the rewritten
doc/klammertext_for_llm.md.

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).

Working with an AI assistant

If you use a language model to help write Klammertext, give it doc/klammertext_for_llm.md. It is a dense reference written for a model rather than a person: the syntax, the things a model is most likely to assume wrongly about it (Klammertext is not LaTeX, Markdown, or Lisp, and reads oddly if you expect any of them), and how to ask the kdesc and kdiag commands for the current state of the machine instead of guessing.

Editor support

Editing support for Emacs, Sublime Text, Vim, and Visual Studio Code — syntax highlighting, delimiter matching, structural reindentation, table alignment, diagnostics — is in doc/edit/, together with the shared implementation and the Klammertext language server they build on.

Provenance

This repository is a curated snapshot of Klammertext's private development tree, assembled by a manifest-driven script. Its history is a series of release snapshots, not a mirror of the development history, and files here are regenerated on each release — patches cannot be merged directly. Report problems (or send patches) to the author; accepted changes are applied to the development tree and appear in a following snapshot.

This snapshot was assembled from development commit fcec5e2e77ac.
