NanoMD at a glance
NanoMD
NanoMD represents the recurring tendency in documentation tooling to carve out restricted markdown subsets whenever implementers value deterministic parsing, low overhead, and minimal feature surfaces over full compatibility.
Xfig at a glance
Xfig
Xfig began in 1985 and accumulated decades of maintenance and export tooling, which made the .fig format a durable bridge between interactive diagram editing on Unix systems and downstream conversion to PostScript, PDF, and other outputs.
