The language was intended to exclude a number of tools such as sed, awk, perl which modify content but often run silently as part of batch operations

Subject: [teitac-websoftware] Authoring tools with no user interface


Can anyone name an authoring tool with no user interface? To be specific, if an authoring tool is "any software, or collection of software components, that authors use to create or modify content for publication" there seems to be a need for a user interface in one or more of the tools that are part of every "authoring tool". Any thoughts?
