So awesome! Was looking just for this last week! Than you sir! Kudos! =)
Introducing Nemo: A Pythonic Haml

Re: Introducing Nemo: A Pythonic Haml
#12I like what I see and of course I had to optimize it for my very peculiar taste:
html
head
title My web page
meta name=this content=that
link rel=stylesheet href=style.css
script src=jquery.js
body
header
logo
img src=logo.jpg
main
content .center
h1 Welcome to my site
p
This is my first post
Feel free to comment at the end.
pre #hello
a=1+2+3
print a
footer
p no copyrights at all
It may work for 90% of my own projects and it is by far the simplest markup I have seen, evar.

#13A while back, I wrote a very small Python HTML rendering library that gives some of the benefits of this notation while still being Python source code. You _may_ find it interesting if this is the sort of thing you find interesting...

See the CherryPy file browser example later in the page for a demonstration of how it's used.

#14Another one: https://github.com/riffm/mint
Ah I forgot about Mint.
I don't want to talk badly about it--because to be honest it has some really cool features like chained-method-calls that allow you to quickly compose HTML attributes via inheritance----but Mint has always struck me as more Perl than Python.
Look at this:
@p.class(title).title({{ doc.title }}) {{ doc.title }}
title
% p .'title' title='${doc.title}' || ${ doc.title }
Mint feels like a programming language that happens to produce HTML as a side-effect.

#15Earlier quoted context omitted.
You might want to update your readme file so everyone knows that it compiles down to Mako just at a glance. Right now its confusing. But if I'd known about this project a few days ago, you'd have definitely been added to my list of Muses. Also, does your fork support the full range of Mako control structures? Looking at the nodes.py it seems that its still targeted towards a Django-templates backend.
Yeah, I quickly hacked it together, I will update the readme soon. It does support the mako control structures. You see them rendered around line 200 in nodes.py.
You forgot to change the list of self-closing tags.
I'd suggest making 'while' self closing.
How do you handle Mako defs, and namespace tags?

Oh definitely.
To me, it seems that everyone is striving to find an easier way to programmatically create HTML in Python. The current range of templating languages just don't cut it.
I think there's no definitive solution partially because everyone is copying Haml, and Hamls' syntax and trade-offs aren't really appropriate for Python users.

Did you fork it on Github?
I'd love to see your code.
Right now, its' looking like a better version of SPHaml, but who can tell without seeing the gotchas'.
Like when it comes to assumptions, you'd be surprised how many times I write the word "option" as the first thing in a sentence. =)

No no that's just a quick brain dump just to see if it could be optimized a bit further. I love simplicity and always try to simplify stuff just for the fun of it.

Got it.
If you do get the time, check out the code and see if you can tweak things to your liking.
I'll be doing a cleanup/refactoring later this week to make things better.
However, the core of Nemos' parsing is handled by pyparsing, so if you can read and write eBNF, then you can tweak Nemos' syntax to your liking pretty easily.
