When at the start of words, the Korean ㅇ symbol is silent.

Similar to markdown, Ieung intends to be human readable, powerful in capability, and be visually similar to a normal text file. It strives to get out of your way, and in a sense, be silent.

Every line in Ieung has a left-aligned type identifier for the first two characters, followed by an empty space. This makes parsing files significantly easier, and also ensures that .ng files (the default file extention) are cool to look at.

The following is a short snippet of Ieung:
