==== Description: ====
Meta-HTMLTM is a programming language specifically designed for working
within the World Wide Web environment. Although it is a genuine programming
language, suitable for large-scale symbolic manipulation, it provides the most
commonly wanted Web functionality as built-in primitives, so you don't have to
write them.

You can find out more about the theory of implementation in this white paper.
[http://metahtml.sourceforge.net/documentation/manifesto.html]

Web pages are authored using HTML and Meta-HTML statements freely
intermixed.

When a page is requested by a browser, the page is passed through the
Meta-HTML interpreter, which dynamically processes any Meta-HTML statements to
produce a final HTML page that is delivered to the browser.

The source distribution provides several different interpreter options:

A CGI engine which can be run by any Unix Web server,
A FastCGI engine which can be run under FastCGI compliant servers,
A full-featured Web server (mhttpd) with the interpreter built in,
A standalone processor, much like Perl or Tcl, and
An interactive debugger, with a feel similar to GDB (mdb)
Release 6.11 marks the first release of Meta-HTML with an integrated byte
compiler, which (although buggy) can bring a 50 to 500 times speedup to the
execution of your Meta-HTML code.
 



==== Other Software Required: ====
GDBM, the database.


==== Other Comments: ====
The link points to a tarball of a working tree from my git repo.
I would like to manage the maintenance of metahtml using git.
