Description:

Lout is a high-level language for document formatting. Lout reads a
high-level description of a document (similar in style to LaTeX) and
can produce a PostScript(TM) file for printing or produce plain text.
Lout supports the typesetting of documents which contain floating
figures, table, diagrams, rotated and scaled text or graphics,
footnotes, running headers, footers, an index, a table of contents and
bibliography, cross-references, mathematical equations and statistical
graphs. Lout can be extended with definitions that should be easier to
write than other languages, since Lout is a high-level language. Lout
supports (with hyphenation) a variety of languages: Czech, Danish,
Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Norwegian, Russian,
Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish.

Install the lout package if you'd like to try the Lout document
formatting system. Unless you're already a Lout expert, you'll
probably want to also install the lout-doc package, which contains the
documentation for Lout.
