Setext (Structure Enhanced Text)[2] is a lightweight markup language used to format plain text documents such as e-newsletters, Usenet postings, and e-mails. In contrast to some other markup languages (such as HTML), the markup is easily readable without any parsing or special software.
Setext was first introduced in 1991 by Ian Feldman for use in the TidBITS electronic newsletter.
