+# subtext
+## a layered roffish markup .. thing
+
+subtext is a way to write text using shell templating and roff-like aesthetics for fun.  confused?  I don't know how to describe it really. just look at the syntax, i guess.
+
+## syntax
+
+subtext's syntax is inspired by roff mostly, with some other line-oriented markups in there as well.  its semantics are mostly inspired by this one program i read about reading files as shell here-docs.  i kinda combined those ideas together to make an awk script that generates a shell script that you can execute to generate markup.  i will *eventually* have html and gemtext macrofiles in this repo, so you can generate html and gemtext from the same source file.

+### text lines
+
+### shell substitution
+
+### dotted lines
+
+### hashed lines
+
+## what's a macrofile?
+
+note: i should probably change this name
