  • Consider expanding your question a bit. What do you mean by fast? Just a high-level overview or something that reads nicer on the eyes than the spec/standards? For instance, would you be requiring this for programming/software development etc.?

    @shivsky something that reads nicer for manually editing files (correctly of course). But for software development I would do the same: initially it must work for simple pgn files, only the final release should work over the spec, maybe (I tested 2 sites today that don't know about variations)
