Abstract
A description file that includes multiple statements written in a customizable, tag-based interpreted language for processing data contained in the messages is disclosed. A data shaper translates and then executes each statement in the description file. The customizable, tag-based interpreted language, defines the operational behavior of the data shaper. The operational behavior shapes data contained in the messages to produce publishable matter suitable for online presentation.
