Abstract: GELLMU, which stands for ``Generalized Extensible L^ATEX-Like Markup'', is a system for using L^ATEX-Like Markup, though not L^ATEX itself, to write consciously for a markup language in the SGML category or in its popular XML subcategory.

• The ``basic'' level of GELLMU offers a way to use L^ATEX-Like notation together with a L^ATEX-Like "newcommand" (with arguments) macro facility to write web pages.

• The ``regular'' level of GELLMU enables one additionally to incorporate certain L^ATEX-Like features, such as the use of a blank line for a new paragraph, in writing for an SGML language.

• The didactic GELLMU production system provides an ``article'' XML language, with some resemblance to L^ATEX itself, that is a rigorous domain for translation to other formats.
