Gavin Wraith has updated his great application, Weave.

What is weave?
Taken from Gavin's homepage "Weave is a language for describing tagged text and, in particular, webpages. Why not use HTML? Because it has no provision for variables or functions. It has no abstraction facilities. By contrast Weave can be used as simply as HTML, but gives you a lot more descriptive power. You can create a whole website with a single Weave script. Alternatively you can split a website description up among various Weave scripts, each specialised for different aspects, e.g. content versus page furniture, site structure from the visual aspects of the navigation furniture, and so on. Objects common to more than one page need never be duplicated. In a word, Weave is a lot more powerful and abstract than HTML."
Weave is based around Lua 5.1 but you don't need RiscLua to run the program however you do need a recent version of the 32-Bit version of the Shared C Library that is available from Castle Technology's website.
