It may interest some readers to know that the ISO has a study on
devising a standard document processing language.  The last I heard
the proposal bears some resemblance to SCRIBE, and has the same
'declarative' approach of separating information on "how to format a
paragraph" (for instance) from indications of where the paragraphs are
in the text.

The project is called CLPT Computer Langs for Processing of Text.
  ISO TC97/SC5/EG CLPT-X3J6.  A draft was produced dated June 1983,
in six parts.  The chairman of the experts group is Charles D Card
at Sperry Corporation, PA.

Does anyone on the net have more up to date info on this?
