+<b>SiSU</b> is a framework for document structuring, publishing (in multiple open
+standard formats) and search, comprising of: (a) a lightweight document
+structure and presentation markup syntax; and (b) an accompanying engine
+for generating standard document format outputs from documents prepared
+in sisu markup syntax, which is able to produce multiple standard outputs
+(including the population of sql databases) that (can) share a common numbering
+system for the citation of text within a document.
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> is developed under an open source, software libre license ( <i>GPLv3</i>
+). Its use case for development is work with medium to large document sets
+and cope with evolving document formats/ representation technologies. Documents
+are prepared once, and generated as need be to update the technical presentation
+or add additional output formats. Various output formats (including search
+related output) share a common mechanism for cross-output-format citation.
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> both defines a markup syntax and provides an engine that produces
+open standards format outputs from documents prepared with <b>SiSU</b> markup.
+From a single lightly prepared document sisu custom builds several standard
+output formats which share a common (text object) numbering system for
+citation of content within a document (that also has implications for search).
+The sisu engine works with an abstraction of the document&rsquo;s structure and
+content from which it is possible to generate different forms of representation
+of the document. Significantly <b>SiSU</b> markup is more sparse than html and
+outputs which include <i>HTML,</i> <i>EPUB,</i> <i>ODT</i> (Open Document Format text), <i>LaTeX,</i>
+landscape and portrait <i>PDF,</i> all of which can be added to and updated. <b>SiSU</b>
+is also able to populate <i>SQL</i> type databases at an object level, which means
+that searches can be made with that degree of granularity.
+<p> <br>
+Source document preparation and output generation is a two step process:
+(i) document source is prepared, that is, marked up in sisu markup syntax
+and (ii) the desired output subsequently generated by running the sisu
+engine against document source. Output representations if updated (in the
+sisu engine) can be generated by re-running the engine against the prepared
+source. Using <b>SiSU</b> markup applied to a document, <b>SiSU</b> custom builds (to
+take advantage of the strengths of different ways of representing documents)
+various standard open output formats including plain text, <i>HTML,</i> <i>XHTML,</i>
+<i>XML,</i> <i>EPUB,</i> <i>ODT,</i> <i>LaTeX</i> or <i>PDF</i> files, and populate an <i>SQL</i> database with objects[^1]
+(equating generally to paragraph-sized chunks) so searches may be performed
+and matches returned with that degree of granularity ( e.g. your search criteria
+is met by these documents and at these locations within each document).
+Document output formats share a common object numbering system for locating
+content. This is particularly suitable for "published" works (finalized
+texts as opposed to works that are frequently changed or updated) for which
+it provides a fixed means of reference of content.
+<p> <br>
+In preparing a <b>SiSU</b> document you optionally provide semantic information
+related to the document in a document header, and in marking up the substantive
+text provide information on the structure of the document, primarily indicating
+heading levels and footnotes. You also provide information on basic text
+attributes where used. The rest is automatic, sisu from this information
+custom builds[^2] the different forms of output requested.
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> works with an abstraction of the document based on its structure which
+is comprised of its headings[^3] and objects[^4], which enables <b>SiSU</b> to represent
+the document in many different ways, and to take advantage of the strengths
+of different ways of presenting documents. The objects are numbered, and
+these numbers can be used to provide a common basis for citing material
+within a document across the different output format types. This is significant
+as page numbers are not well suited to the digital age, in web publishing,
+changing a browser&rsquo;s default font or using a different browser can mean
+that text will appear on a different page; and publishing in different
+formats, html, landscape and portrait pdf etc. again page numbers are not
+useful to cite text. Dealing with documents at an object level together
+with object numbering also has implications for search that <b>SiSU</b> is able
+to take advantage of.
+<p> <br>
+One of the challenges of maintaining documents is to keep them in a format
+that allows use of them independently of proprietary platforms. Consider
+issues related to dealing with legacy proprietary formats today and what
+guarantee you have that old proprietary formats will remain (or can be
+read without proprietary software/equipment) in 15 years time, or the way
+the way in which html has evolved over its relatively short span of existence.
+<b>SiSU</b> provides the flexibility of producing documents in multiple non-proprietary
+open formats including <i>HTML,</i> <i>EPUB,</i> [^5] <i>ODT,</i> [^6] <i>PDF</i> [^7] <i>ODF,</i> [^8]. Whilst
+<b>SiSU</b> relies on software, the markup is uncomplicated and minimalistic which
+guarantees that future engines can be written to run against it. It is also
+easily converted to other formats, which means documents prepared in <b>SiSU</b>
+can be migrated to other document formats. Further security is provided
+by the fact that the software itself, <b>SiSU</b> is available under <i>GPLv3</i> a licence
+that guarantees that the source code will always be open, and free as in
+libre, which means that that code base can be used, updated and further
+developed as required under the terms of its license. Another challenge
+is to keep up with a moving target. <b>SiSU</b> permits new forms of output to
+be added as they become important, (Open Document Format text was added
+in 2006 when it became an ISO standard for office applications and the
+archival of documents), <i>EPUB</i> was introduced in 2009; and allows the technical
+representations existing output to be updated ( <i>HTML</i> has evolved and the
+related module has been updated repeatedly over the years, presumably when
+the World Wide Web Consortium (w3c) finalises <i>HTML</i> 5 which is currently
+under development, the <i>HTML</i> module will again be updated allowing all existing
+documents to be regenerated as <i>HTML</i> 5).
+<p> <br>
+The document formats are written to the file-system and available for indexing
+by independent indexing tools, whether off the web like Google and Yahoo
+or on the site like Lucene and Hyperestraier.
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> also provides other features such as concordance files and document
+content certificates, and the working against an abstraction of document
+structure has further possibilities for the research and development of
+other document representations, the availability of objects is useful for
+example for topic maps and thesauri, together with the flexibility of <b>SiSU</b>
+offers great possibilities.
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> is primarily for published works, which can take advantage of the
+citation system to reliably reference its documents. <b>SiSU</b> works well in
+a complementary manner with such collaborative technologies as Wikis, which
+can take advantage of and be used to discuss the substance of content prepared
+in <b>SiSU.</b>

+All paragraphs are separated by an empty line.
+<p> <br>
+Markup is comprised of:
+<p> <br>
+* at the top of a document, the document header made up of semantic meta-data
+about the document and if desired additional processing instructions (such
+an instruction to automatically number headings from a particular level
+down)
+<p> <br>
+* followed by the prepared substantive text of which the most important
+single characteristic is the markup of different heading levels, which
+define the primary outline of the document structure. Markup of substantive
+text includes:
+<p> <br>
+ * heading levels defines document structure<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+ * text basic attributes, italics, bold etc.<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+ * grouped text (objects), which are to be treated differently, such as

+ * linked text and images<br>
+
+<p> <br>

+Heading levels are :A~ ,:B~ ,:C~ ,1~ ,2~ ,3~ ... :A - :C being part / section
+headings, followed by other heading levels, and 1 -6 being headings followed
+by substantive text or sub-headings. :A~ usually the title :A~? conditional
+level 1 heading (used where a stand-alone document may be imported into
+another)
+<p> <br>
+<b>:A~ [heading &nbsp;text]</b> Top level heading [this &nbsp;usually &nbsp;has &nbsp;similar &nbsp;content
+&nbsp;to &nbsp;the &nbsp;title &nbsp;@title: &nbsp;] NOTE: the heading levels described here are in 0.38
+notation, see heading
+<p> <br>
+<b>:B~ [heading &nbsp;text]</b> Second level heading [this &nbsp;is &nbsp;a &nbsp;heading &nbsp;level &nbsp;divider]

+<b>1~ [heading &nbsp;text]</b> Top level heading preceding substantive text of document
+or sub-heading 2, the heading level that would normally be marked 1. or 2.
+or 3. etc. in a document, and the level on which sisu by default would break
+html output into named segments, names are provided automatically if none
+are given (a number), otherwise takes the form 1~my_filename_for_this_segment
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>2~ [heading &nbsp;text]</b> Second level heading preceding substantive text of document
+or sub-heading 3 , the heading level that would normally be marked 1.1 or
+1.2 or 1.3 or 2.1 etc. in a document.
+<p> <br>
+<b>3~ [heading &nbsp;text]</b> Third level heading preceding substantive text of document,
+that would normally be marked 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 or 1.2.1 or 2.1.1 etc. in a document
+
+<p> <br>
+<pre>1~filename level 1 heading,

+braces, unless they are contained within a code block (in which case they
+are passed as normal text), or escaped by a preceding underscore (in which
+case the decoration is omitted).

+<h2><a name='sect44' href='#toc44'>Composite Documents Markup</a></h2>
+<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+It is possible to build a document by creating a master document that requires
+other documents. The documents required may be complete documents that could
+be generated independently, or they could be markup snippets, prepared
+so as to be easily available to be placed within another text. If the calling
+document is a master document (built from other documents), it should be
+named with the suffix <b>.ssm</b> Within this document you would provide information
+on the other documents that should be included within the text. These may
+be other documents that would be processed in a regular way, or markup
+bits prepared only for inclusion within a master document <b>.sst</b> regular markup
+file, or <b>.ssi</b> (insert/information) A secondary file of the composite document
+
+<p>is built prior to processing with the same prefix and the suffix <b>._sst</b>
+<p>
+<br>
+
+<p>basic markup for importing a document into a master document
+<p> <br>
+<pre>&lt;&lt; filename1.sst
+&lt;&lt; filename2.ssi
+</pre>
+<p> <br>
+The form described above should be relied on. Within the <i>Vim</i> editor it results
+in the text thus linked becoming hyperlinked to the document it is calling
+in which is convenient for editing.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect45' href='#toc45'>Sisu Filetypes</a></h2>
+<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> has <i>plaintext</i> and binary filetypes, and can process either type of
+document.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect46' href='#toc46'>.sst .ssm .ssi Marked Up Plain Text</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<dl>
+
+<dt><b>SiSU¤b〕 documents are prepared
+as plain-text (utf-8) files with</b> </dt>
+<dd><b>SiSU</b> markup. They may make reference to and
+contain images (for example), which are stored in the directory beneath
+them _sisu/image. 〔b¤SiSU <i>plaintext</i> markup files are of three types that
+may be distinguished by the file extension used: regular text .sst; master
+documents, composite documents that incorporate other text, which can be
+any regular text or text insert; and inserts the contents of which are
+like regular text except these are marked .ssi and are not processed.<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> processing can be done directly against a sisu documents; which may
+be located locally or on a remote server for which a url is provided.
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> source markup can be shared with the command:
+<p> <br>
+ sisu -s [filename]<br>
+

+The most common form of document in <b>SiSU,</b> see the section on <b>SiSU</b> markup.
+
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect48' href='#toc48'>Sisu Master Files (.ssm)</a></h2>
+
+<p> <br>
+Composite documents which incorporate other <b>SiSU</b> documents which may be
+either regular <b>SiSU</b> text .sst which may be generated independently, or inserts
+prepared solely for the purpose of being incorporated into one or more
+master documents.
+<p> <br>
+The mechanism by which master files incorporate other documents is described
+as one of the headings under under <b>SiSU</b> markup in the <b>SiSU</b> manual.
+<p> <br>
+Note: Master documents may be prepared in a similar way to regular documents,
+and processing will occur normally if a .sst file is renamed .ssm without
+requiring any other documents; the .ssm marker flags that the document may
+contain other documents.
+<p> <br>
+Note: a secondary file of the composite document is built prior to processing
+with the same prefix and the suffix ._sst [^19]
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect49' href='#toc49'>Sisu Insert Files (.ssi)</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<br>
+Inserts are documents prepared solely for the purpose of being incorporated
+into one or more master documents. They resemble regular <b>SiSU</b> text files
+except they are ignored by the <b>SiSU</b> processor. Making a file a .ssi file
+is a quick and convenient way of flagging that it is not intended that
+the file should be processed on its own.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect50' href='#toc50'>Sisupod, Zipped Binary Container
+(sisupod.zip, .ssp)</a></h2>
+
+<p> <br>
+A sisupod is a zipped <b>SiSU</b> text file or set of <b>SiSU</b> text files and any
+associated images that they contain (this will be extended to include sound
+and multimedia-files)
+<p>
+<dl>
+
+<dt><b>SiSU</b> </dt>
+<dd><i>plaintext</i> files rely on a recognised directory
+structure to find contents such as images associated with documents, but
+all images for example for all documents contained in a directory are located
+in the sub-directory _sisu/image. Without the ability to create a sisupod
+it can be inconvenient to manually identify all other files associated
+with a document. A sisupod automatically bundles all associated files with
+the document that is turned into a pod.
+<p> <br>
+The structure of the sisupod is such that it may for example contain a
+single document and its associated images; a master document and its associated
+documents and anything else; or the zipped contents of a whole directory
+of prepared <b>SiSU</b> documents.
+<p> <br>
+The command to create a sisupod is:
+<p> <br>
+ sisu -S [filename]<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+Alternatively, make a pod of the contents of a whole directory:
+<p> <br>
+ sisu -S<br>
+

+<b>SiSU</b> processing can be done directly against a sisupod; which may be located

+- Directory Structure and Mapping</a></h2>
+<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> v3 has new options for the source directory tree, and output directory
+structures of which there are 3 alternatives.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect57' href='#toc57'>Document Source Directory</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<br>
+The document source directory is the directory in which sisu processing
+commands are given. It contains the sisu source files (.sst .ssm .ssi), or
+(for sisu v3 may contain) subdirectories with language codes which contain
+the sisu source files, so all English files would go in subdirectory en/,
+French in fr/, Spanish in es/ and so on. ISO 639-1 codes are used (as varied
+by po4a). A list of available languages (and possible sub-directory names)
+can be obtained with the command "sisu --help lang" The list of languages
+is limited to langagues supported by XeTeX polyglosia.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect58' href='#toc58'>General Directories</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<br>
+<pre>% files stored at this level e.g. sisu_manual.sst or
+% for sisu v3 may be under language sub-directories
+% e.g.
+ ./subject_name/en
+ ./subject_name/fr
+ ./subject_name/es
+ ./subject_name/_sisu
+ ./subject_name/_sisu/css
+ ./subject_name/_sisu/image
+</pre>
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect59' href='#toc59'>Document Output Directory Structures</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect60' href='#toc60'>Output Directory Root</a></h2>
+
+<p> <br>
+The output directory root can be set in the sisurc.yml file. Under the root,
+subdirectories are made for each directory in which a document set resides.
+If you have a directory named poems or conventions, that directory will
+be created under the output directory root and the output for all documents
+contained in the directory of a particular name will be generated to subdirectories
+beneath that directory (poem or conventions). A document will be placed
+in a subdirectory of the same name as the document with the filetype identifier
+stripped (.sst .ssm)
+<p> <br>
+The last part of a directory path, representing the sub-directory in which
+a document set resides, is the directory name that will be used for the
+output directory. This has implications for the organisation of document
+collections as it could make sense to place documents of a particular subject,
+or type within a directory identifying them. This grouping as suggested
+could be by subject (sales_law, english_literature); or just as conveniently
+by some other classification (X University). The mapping means it is also
+possible to place in the same output directory documents that are for organisational
+purposes kept separately, for example documents on a given subject of two
+different institutions may be kept in two different directories of the
+same name, under a directory named after each institution, and these would
+be output to the same output directory. Skins could be associated with each
+institution on a directory basis and resulting documents will take on the
+appropriate different appearance.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect61' href='#toc61'>Alternative Output Structures</a></h2>
+
+<p> <br>
+There are 3 possibile output structures described as being, by language,
+by filetype or by filename, the selection is made in sisurc.yml
+<p> <br>
+<pre>#% output_dir_structure_by: language; filetype; or filename
+output_dir_structure_by: language #(language &amp; filetype, preferred?)

+
+<p> <br>
+
+<p>The by language directory structure places output files
+<p> <br>
+The by language directory structure separates output files by language
+code (all files of a given language), and within the language directory
+by filetype.

+<p> <br>
+1. through placing your home page and other custom built documents in the
+subdirectory _sisu/home/ (this probably being the easier and more convenient
+option)
+<p> <br>
+2. through providing what you want as the home page in a skin,
+<p> <br>
+Document sets are contained in directories, usually organised by site or
+subject. Each directory can/should have its own homepage. See the section
+on directory structure and organisation of content.

+searched for the configuration directory, namely ./_sisu ; ~/_sisu ; /etc/sisu
+From there they are copied to the root of the output directory with the

+<h2><a name='sect73' href='#toc73'>Sisu Search
+- Introduction</a></h2>
+<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> output can easily and conveniently be indexed by a number of standalone
+indexing tools, such as Lucene, Hyperestraier.
+<p> <br>
+Because the document structure of sites created is clearly defined, and
+the text <i>object</i> citation system is available hypothetically at least, for
+all forms of output, it is possible to search the sql database, and either
+read results from that database, or just as simply map the results to the
+html output, which has richer text markup.
+<p> <br>
+In addition to this <b>SiSU</b> has the ability to populate a relational sql type
+database with documents at an object level, with objects numbers that are
+shared across different output types, which make them searchable with that
+degree of granularity. Basically, your match criteria is met by these documents
+and at these locations within each document, which can be viewed within
+the database directly or in various output formats.
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect74' href='#toc74'>Sql</a></h2>
+<br>
+
+<p>
+<h2><a name='sect75' href='#toc75'>Populating Sql Type Databases</a></h2>
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> feeds sisu markupd documents into sql type databases <i>PostgreSQL</i> [^21]
+and/or <i>SQLite</i> [^22] database together with information related to document
+structure.
+<p> <br>
+This is one of the more interesting output forms, as all the structural
+data of the documents are retained (though can be ignored by the user of
+the database should they so choose). All site texts/documents are (currently)
+streamed to four tables:
+<p> <br>
+ * one containing semantic (and other) headers, including, title, author,<br>
+ subject, (the<br>
+ .I Dublin Core.<br>
+ ..);<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+ * another the substantive texts by individual "paragraph" (or object)
+-<br>
+ along with structural information, each paragraph being identifiable
+by its<br>
+ paragraph number (if it has one which almost all of them do), and the<br>
+ substantive text of each paragraph quite naturally being searchable
+(both in<br>
+ formatted and clean text versions for searching); and<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+ * a third containing endnotes cross-referenced back to the paragraph from<br>
+ which they are referenced (both in formatted and clean text versions
+for<br>
+ searching).<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+ * a fourth table with a one to one relation with the headers table contains<br>
+ full text versions of output, eg. pdf, html, xml, and<br>
+ .I ascii.<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+There is of course the possibility to add further structures.
+<p> <br>
+At this level <b>SiSU</b> loads a relational database with documents chunked into
+objects, their smallest logical structurally constituent parts, as text
+objects, with their object citation number and all other structural information
+needed to construct the document. Text is stored (at this text object level)
+with and without elementary markup tagging, the stripped version being
+so as to facilitate ease of searching.
+<p> <br>
+Being able to search a relational database at an object level with the
+<b>SiSU</b> citation system is an effective way of locating content generated
+by <b>SiSU.</b> As individual text objects of a document stored (and indexed) together
+with object numbers, and all versions of the document have the same numbering,
+complex searches can be tailored to return just the locations of the search
+results relevant for all available output formats, with live links to the
+precise locations in the database or in html/xml documents; or, the structural
+information provided makes it possible to search the full contents of the
+database and have headings in which search content appears, or to search
+only headings etc. (as the <i>Dublin</i> Core is incorporated it is easy to make
+use of that as well).

+<br>
+
+<p> <br>
+* sparse/minimal markup (clean utf-8 source texts). Documents are prepared
+in a single <i>UTF-8</i> file using a minimalistic mnemonic syntax. Typical literature,
+documents like "War and Peace" require almost no markup, and most of the
+headers are optional.
+<p> <br>
+* markup is easily readable/parsable by the human eye, (basic markup is
+simpler and more sparse than the most basic <i>HTML</i> ) , [this &nbsp;may &nbsp;also &nbsp;be
+&nbsp;converted &nbsp;to &nbsp;.I &nbsp;XML &nbsp;representations &nbsp;of &nbsp;the &nbsp;same &nbsp;input/source &nbsp;document].
+<p>
+<br>
+* markup defines document structure (this may be done once in a header
+pattern-match description, or for heading levels individually); basic text
+attributes (bold, italics, underscore, strike-through etc.) as required;
+and semantic information related to the document (header information, extended
+beyond the Dublin core and easily further extended as required); the headers
+may also contain processing instructions. <b>SiSU</b> markup is primarily an abstraction
+of document structure and document metadata to permit taking advantage
+of the basic strengths of existing alternative practical standard ways
+of representing documents [be &nbsp;that &nbsp;browser viewing, &nbsp;paper &nbsp;publication,
+&nbsp;sql &nbsp;search &nbsp;etc.] (html, epub, xml, odf, latex, pdf, sql)
+<p> <br>
+* for output produces reasonably elegant output of established industry
+and institutionally accepted open standard formats.[3] takes advantage of
+the different strengths of various standard formats for representing documents,
+amongst the output formats currently supported are:
+<p> <br>
+* <i>HTML</i> - both as a single scrollable text and a segmented document
+<p> <br>
+* <i>XHTML</i>
+<p> <br>
+* <i>EPUB</i>
+<p> <br>
+* <i>XML</i> - both in sax and dom style xml structures for further development
+
+<p>as required
+<p> <br>
+* <i>ODT</i> - Open Document Format text, the iso standard for document storage
+
+<p> <br>
+* <i>LaTeX</i> - used to generate pdf
+<p> <br>
+* <i>PDF</i> (via <i>LaTeX</i> )
+<p> <br>
+* <i>SQL</i> - population of an sql database ( <i>PostgreSQL</i> or <i>SQLite</i> ) , (at the
+same object level that is used to cite text within a document)
+<p> <br>
+Also produces: concordance files; document content certificates (md5 or
+sha256 digests of headings, paragraphs, images etc.) and html manifests
+(and sitemaps of content). (b) takes advantage of the strengths implicit
+in these very different output types, (e.g. PDFs produced using typesetting
+of <i>LaTeX,</i> databases populated with documents at an individual object/paragraph
+level, making possible <i>granular</i> search (and related possibilities))
+<p> <br>
+* ensuring content can be cited in a meaningful way regardless of selected
+output format. Online publishing (and publishing in multiple document formats)
+lacks a useful way of citing text internally within documents (important
+to academics generally and to lawyers) as page numbers are meaningless
+across browsers and formats. sisu seeks to provide a common way of pinpoint
+the text within a document, (which can be utilized for citation and by
+search engines). The outputs share a common numbering system that is meaningful
+(to man and machine) across all digital outputs whether paper, screen,
+or database oriented, (pdf, <i>HTML,</i> <i>EPUB,</i> xml, sqlite, postgresql) , this
+numbering system can be used to reference content.
+<p> <br>
+* Granular search within documents. <i>SQL</i> databases are populated at an object
+level (roughly headings, paragraphs, verse, tables) and become searchable
+with that degree of granularity, the output information provides the object/paragraph
+numbers which are relevant across all generated outputs; it is also possible
+to look at just the matching paragraphs of the documents in the database;
+[output &nbsp;indexing &nbsp;also &nbsp;work
+<p> <br>
+* long term maintainability of document collections in a world of changing
+formats, having a very sparsely marked-up source document base. there is
+a considerable degree of future-proofing, output representations are "upgradeable",
+and new document formats may be added. e.g. addition of odf (open document
+text) module in 2006, epub in 2009 and in future html5 output sometime
+in future, without modification of existing prepared texts
+<p> <br>
+* <i>SQL</i> search aside, documents are generated as required and static once
+generated.
+<p> <br>
+* documents produced are static files, and may be batch processed, this
+needs to be done only once but may be repeated for various reasons as desired
+(updated content, addition of new output formats, updated technology document
+presentations/representations)
+<p> <br>
+* document source ( <i>plaintext</i> utf-8) if shared on the net may be used as
+
+<p>input and processed locally to produce the different document outputs
+<p>
+<br>
+* document source may be bundled together (automatically) with associated
+documents (multiple language versions or master document with inclusions)
+and images and sent as a zip file called a sisupod, if shared on the net
+
+<p>these too may be processed locally to produce the desired document outputs
+
+<p> <br>
+* generated document outputs may automatically be posted to remote sites.
+
+<p> <br>
+* for basic document generation, the only software dependency is <b>Ruby,</b>
+and a few standard Unix tools (this covers <i>plaintext,</i> <i>HTML,</i> <i>EPUB,</i> <i>XML,</i>
+<i>ODF,</i> <i>LaTeX</i> ) . To use a database you of course need that, and to convert
+the <i>LaTeX</i> generated to pdf, a latex processor like tetex or texlive.
+<p> <br>
+* as a developers tool it is flexible and extensible
+<p> <br>
+Syntax highlighting for <b>SiSU</b> markup is available for a number of text editors.
+
+<p> <br>
+<b>SiSU</b> is less about document layout than about finding a way with little
+markup to be able to construct an abstract representation of a document
+that makes it possible to produce multiple representations of it which
+may be rather different from each other and used for different purposes,
+whether layout and publishing, or search of content
+<p> <br>
+i.e. to be able to take advantage from this minimal preparation starting
+point of some of the strengths of rather different established ways of
+representing documents for different purposes, whether for search (relational
+database, or indexed flat files generated for that purpose whether of complete
+documents, or say of files made up of objects), online viewing (e.g. html,
+xml, pdf) , or paper publication (e.g. pdf) ...
+<p> <br>
+the solution arrived at is by extracting structural information about the
+document (about headings within the document) and by tracking objects (which
+are serialized and also given hash values) in the manner described. It makes
+possible representations that are quite different from those offered at
+present. For example objects could be saved individually and identified
+by their hashes, with an index of how the objects relate to each other
+to form a document.
+<p>
+<ol>
+<b>.</b><li>objects include: headings, paragraphs, verse, tables,
+images, but not footnotes/endnotes which are numbered separately and tied
+to the object from which they are referenced.
