Reach for Markdown, not LaTeX

I have a dream where someone writes a processor that will allow the writer to bang out some Markdown-ish plaintext and turn it into a p&a with automatically generated Table of Contents, Table of Authorities, caption, and pleading paper.

Call it LexDown or something even less mellifluous and free millions from the tyranny of Word style sheets forever.

I was curious and searched if there was a project of that name already: https://github.com/OpenIus/lexdown
