+ asciidoc is a text document format for writing short documents,
+ articles, books and UNIX man pages. asciidoc files can be translated
+ to HTML and DocBook markups using the asciidoc(1) command.
+
+ AsciiDoc is highly configurable: both the AsciiDoc source file syntax
+ and the backend output markups (which can be almost any type of SGML/XML
+ markup) can be customized and extended by the user."
