Lesser known markup languages:

    Perl's POD:  http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6/pod/perlpod.html
    Can be translated to man, HTML, LaTeX, plain text.
    
    WikiWiki syntax: http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?TextFormattingRules
    Many Wiki implementations use more advanced markup but this is the
    original. 
    
    Python's Structured Text: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~edloper/pydoc/stminus-001.html
    
All three markup languages aim to use as feq special syntax as
possible.  Structured Text seems to be the most advanced using
indentation to denote structure.  This is in a sharp contrast to the
SGML/XML approach which is quite verbose at the source level.  LaTeX
seems to have found a middle ground.  Personally I'd prefer something
like Structured Text or LaTeX for OCaml.
