@starbreaker You didn't consider the existing static Web frameworks like Hugo, Jekyll or Pelican? Or, rougher, pandoc?

@starbreaker Ooops, sorry, I missed the mention. OK, you consider them but you don't really explain why you don't use them.

@bortzmeyer I've used Jekyll and Pelican before, and found them limiting. I'd rather just do raw HTML.

@starbreaker Raw HTML is fin if you have just one page. Otherwise, a templating system (do you know that #pandoc has one?) saves a lot of time.

@bortzmeyer That's what the M4 macros are for. Did you read the entire post?

@starbreaker Yes, my remark was about "writing raw HTML".

@bortzmeyer I didn't think I needed to belabor the fact that I'm using M4 macros mixed in with my raw HTML. That's what the makefile is for.
