Simple Outline XML
Simple Outline XML (SOX) is a compressed way of writing XML.
SOX uses indenting to represent the structure of an XML document, eliminating the need for closing tags.
Example
The following XHTML markup fragment:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Sample page</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>A very brief page</p>
</body>
</html>
... would appear in SOX as:
html> xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml head> title> Sample page body> p> A very brief page
SOX can be readily converted to XML.
gollark: I (sort of) reimplemented it using a metatable on the string metatable.
gollark: There was an old bug where the string metatable was shared between computers.
gollark: Well, all potatOS ones, so about three.
gollark: Superglobals are like globals, but shared across all computers everywhere.
gollark: Including the superglobals™ function which powers the string metatable bug reimplementation.
