I haven't seen anything new in this space and I just finished a project using a markdown format I invented called Tagged{Text}. I'm happy to present it here for your consideration.

In creating my blog and static site I started using Markdown but couldn't get around the limitations. So I invented a simple file format for tagging text into a tree like structure. It has a formatting style modeled after LaTeX. It has served me well (two websites and two blogs).

I call it an "agnostic markdown format" because no tags are defined ahead of time. The user defines everything and writes python filters to generate the output from the tags. I have lots of python code to parse and generate HTML. It has a macro processor, calculator, git date, and other useful tags.

Here is an article about Tagged{Text}: https://etcutmp.com/taggedtext.html Another website built using this format: https://etcutmp.com/evolve5 Source Code: https://github.com/kjs452/tagged_text Source Code for the second website: https://github.com/kjs452/Evolve5Help

The main python file is: taggedtext.py (the parser). All the other python code are filters to generate or transform the tagged text tree into something else. For example, tt_macros.tt implements the DEFINE{} tag.
