YAML

YAML (YAML Ain’t Markup Language) is a data serialisation language standard, similar to a markup language in many respects rather than a data representation language per se. The rather unclassy internationalisation support of YAML means that it is best left to the UNIX like OS's in most cases and should probably only be used where interoperability issues force it.
