#Trump is what we in Sweden call a "Tölp". So are most members of his... regime.

"Tölp" translates to: #fool, #oaf, #dolt, #boor, #jerk, #boob, #lout, #idiot, #chump, #klutz, #twit, #clod, #clown, #booby, #bumpkin, #slob, #blunderer, #clot, #yokel, #clodhopper.

Yay... #funny if the world survives.

#word #lout #definition #MerriamWebster

Twenty years ago, I wrote an #XSLT stylesheet that, given some #XML document, produces input for the #Lout formatter to generate a tree diagram of this document. You can specify an XPath expression to highlight the selected nodes. This is obviously useful for teaching, but I never got around updating it to remove the dependency on Lout, so for the last ten years, I’ve been using the same examples for which I had PDFs.

Until today!

It’s been 30 years and 1 day since #Lout was first released:

If you’ve never heard about it (likely!), Lout is a purely functional #typesetting system (think TeX/LaTeX) that offers a *lot* in one MiB!
