     I suppose you could argue "arcane" but not "programming language".  I
would bet that both troff and TeX are Turing-complete.

     As Bill says, this is a question with no answer.  Your best bet is to
play around with lots of things until you find what you like best.  I still
stand by my assertion that troff and TeX are harder to learn, though,
especially for non-tech types.
