SSS > XML

Title says it all.

Maurice and I were thinking of how to circumvent XML one more time, and Maurice came up with this format:

ideayaybox:{
  author:"nick overdijk"
  author:"maurice bos"
  description:
"blabla
   blabla"
  link:{
      file:       "blah"
      tag: "something"
      tag:"something"
  }
}

So, basically we have 2 types, values and lists (which can be seen as values). Values are between quotation marks, if you want a quotation mark inside a value, you need double quotation marks! A list starts with ‘{‘, and ends with ‘}’.

In the above example, ideayaybox consists of 2 authors, 1 description, and a list of links. Simple enough right?

Simple String Structures, taking over the world!
