: HTML and XML are computer languages that focus entirely on data. They are not programming languages. (Note that they can embed source code, but that's a side effect.) —[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 08:38, 6 July 2009 (UTC) |

The primary focus of the developers isn't to produce a programming language. So sed is an editor as are vim and emacs,bc is a calculator, and m4 a macro processor. The fact that they might accomplish RC tasks doesn't mean that they should be considered as programming languages. Shades of grey. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 09:17, 6 July 2009 (UTC) |
