swsg

About ===== swsg (static web site generator) is a tool to create static websites using human-readable markup languages like ReST_. It was highly-inspired by SR_. The advantage of SWSG against directly using (X)HTML files is that you have one (or more) templates and do not have to rewrite every your main layout on ebery single site. You can concentrate on the main content: the text; the content is seperated from the templates.

    Features
    ========
    - supports many markup languages: Markdown_, Creole_, Textile_, ReST_
    - supports many template engines: Jinja2_, Mako_, Genshi_, and also a very
      simple template language for those who do not need control structures like
      loops or if-conditions
    - supports clevercss_ beside the usual CSS as a markup language for the
      stylesheets
    - provides multiple interfaces: until now, only a CLI is implemented, but
      others are planned:
    
      - PIDA_-Plugin
      - web interface
      - possibly a GTK+ or Qt application, but I think using the PIDA-Plugin is
        more comfortable
