Zoem 07-205

Zoem is a macro/programming language. Zoem project can be used as an all-round macro language, but has more specialized uses as well.
One such specific use is its support for creating small mark-up languages that map to different devices. It has character filtering capabilities tailored to this application.
Two such languages come packaged with zoem; one for creating manual pages that can be output either in troff or in HTML, the other for creating FAQs again in either troff or HTML output.
It supports arithmetic evaluation, regular expressions, multidimensional data storage, iteration, comprehensive IO, control operators, dictionary stacks, system commands, and more.
Enhancements:
- Zoem is now licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3 (or later).
- The bottom user dictionary functions as a global namespace, and syntax exists to access this global namespace directly.
- A macro set#3 was added that provides the modalities of existing set variants (optional warning and expansion) as well as additional modalities.
- The primitive done was reimplemented as throw{done} and throw{done} can be be used to cleanly cut processing in a variety of ways.
- Two example solutions to the N-queen problem illustrate various zoem capabilities.
