txt2lrf now supports a lightweight markup language. It has two main design goals:
- To allow you to create good looking TXT files that can be read directly as TXT files on a computer screen.
- Enable the easy conversion of TXT into nicely formatted LRF
These design goals make it a particularly useful tool for those of you that find creating HTML files by hand too tedious.

- Tables
- Images
- Automatic TOC creation
