- :body.
- :p.Dear Keith,
- :p.
- This memo is being written to demonstrate the power and simplicity of
- the SGML markup minimization and WYSIWYG support.
- :p.
- Although only one tag is visible in the document (to identify an optional
- :q.carbon copy:eq. recipient), the SGML parser recognizes 15 different
- element types. This allows each element to be formatted differently;
- for example, the start and end of a quotation can have differing
- curved quotation marks (the normal typesetting convention), even though
- identical straight quotation marks were used as the WYSIWYG entry convention.
- :p.
- Yours truly,
- :p.
