+@@url@{http://www.gnu.org/, GNU project@}. It was invented by Richard
+Stallman and Bob Chassell many years ago, loosely based on Brian
+Reid's Scribe and other formatting languages of the time. It is
+used by many non-GNU projects as well.

+@defvr {Scheme Procedure} skribe-reader
+A reader for posts written in Skribe, a markup language with the full power
+of Scheme. Skribe posts are created with the @code{post} expression with
+metadata encoded as @code{:key expression} pairs at the beginning of the
+@code{post} expression. After the metadata section, the rest of the @code{post}
+expression is encoded as HTML.
+
+Example:
+
+@example
+(post
+ :title "Hello, Skribe!"
+ :date (make-date* 2016 08 20 12 00)
+ :tags '("skribe" "foo" "baz")

+
+ (p [Skribe is a ,(em [really]) cool document authoring format
+ that provides all the power of Scheme whilst giving the user
