Polygot emitters in action

Converting

BLUEPHRASE can be used to represent many structured languages, and instant conversion is possible with the dedicated emitters that are built into the BLUEPROCESSOR.

Emitting markup

The BLUEPROCESSOR emits HTML by default, but this can be overridden by specifying the --emit option. Consider this prose example and its language counterparts.

h2 Raiders
When Vikings raided and traded along Europe's coasts, the prayer on every churchman's lips was to be spared the wrath of the Norsemen.

h2 Traders
The Vikings obtain goods from the around the world:
ul {
    From the Far East: timber, iron, furs, amber, soapstone, whetstones and slaves.
    From Arabia: silver, coins, fabrics, spices, silk, fruit and wine.
}

Emitting structured data

The BLUEPROCESSOR can emit structured data in many popular formats. Consider this example with its encoded counterparts.

!option --vocabulary=unchecked

chapter *title=Raiders {
    abstract The Wrath of the Norsemen
}
chapter *title=Traders {
    abstract Global reach
    region *name='Far East' {
        product timber
        product iron
        product furs
        product amber
        product soapstone
        product whetstones
        product slaves
    }
    region *name=Arabia {
