Do you _really_ mean "without syntax"?

Nope, thought not:

	Fmark relies merely on spacing, indentation,
	and common punctuation (e.g., periods, exclamation
	and interrogation marks) to reconstruct the structure
	of your document.

That's SYNTAX.

A markup language without syntax is like a meal without food.
