Hello, I've published a Ruby gem that lets you create slide shows and author slides in plain text using a wiki-style markup language that's easy-to-write and easy-to-read. Yes, that's Markdown. (Textile is supported too ;-) You can find two samples online in Markdown: o http://slideshow.rubyforge.org/svn/samples/rest.text o

Hi, I've got a suggestion for adding something to Markdown's syntax. I'm new to the list, so I don't know if this is likely to be received well - I'm aware that it's not all that common (yet) to want to do something like this, and I don't know where everyone here stands on if or how to make markup more meaningful. I'd like to generate some microformated

I''ve just put a new Ruby On Rails application up for testing at: <http://rtest.openprofile.net> Open Profile can be used as a login and user profile module for any Ruby On Rails application. Its purpose is to minimize the hassle of joining new web forums (or anything else on the web that requires you to enter a user name, email addres, password twice, etc.). If it''s

Hi there I''m going to add microformats in my app. I''ve googled for a while but I can''t find any plugin/gem oriented to the creation and rendering in templates of microformats. I''ve seen the REST page on microformats.org but can''t find anything more. I know that writing an implementation from scratch is pretty trivial, but I would like to know if

Does anyone have an example of using REST and submitting data through a POST operation and then possibly loading that data with activerecord. Also, if you have client code written in another language (java,.net, C), would you have that code as well? Berlin Brown

Railoholic-Anonymous Members: I am tooling around with the idea of forming a project which would create a calendar plugin/engine with the following features: 1. DB schema mapping all necessary iCal (RFC-2445) fields. 2. Probably utilizing either vpim (vpim.rubyforge.net), or iCalendar (icalendar.rubyforge.net). (First choice would be vpim since some attendee functionality requires vcard

John, you've hit the nail on the head here. I finally know I can manually change my files to the .txt extension (thanks to helpful suggestions here), but it would be excellent if MMD Composer: a) had an option in the drop-down to save with the .txt extension, and b) had a preference the user could set to choose the default file extension for all files. It would increase ease of

I am glad to see support for footnotes working its way into other implementations of Markdown! However, I have a couple of issues. Issue # 1. There appears to be a bug in the footnote parser that causes material following the footnote to be included as part of the footnote. For example: < Example Section > ## Metadata ## First, take a look at the overall structure of the document.

Hi everyone, I''m writing a lightweight AJAX application using Rails on the server side as a RESTful web service provider. I need the web service to support both JSON and XML I/O. Outputting data in XML and JSON is easy (using to_xml and to_json), and it''s also easy to do XML input as Rails does it for you automatically. Is it possible to somehow have the same automatic parsing

Hi, As part of a other application we need a tagging component. However instead of just duplicating the ''known'' social bookmarking tool we want to extend the way people tag there pages. Let me explain by giving you an example: "When I like a book on Amazon, and I tag the link, I want the application to ''fetch'' as much information as the Amazon (or

I write about R every weekday at http://blog.revolution-computing.com . In case you missed them, here are some articles from last month of particular interest to R users. http://bit.ly/tygLz announced the release of the "foreach" and "iterators" packages on CRAN, for simple scalable parallel programming in R. http://bit.ly/FDS67 linked to Thomas Levin's Joy-Division-esque

I''ve been looking into RESTful approaches lately. Everything I know my dog, Lelu, taught me. REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is an architectural technique for networked applications first described by Roy Fielding in his dissertation at UC Irvine-- excellent work, especially considering the tempting proximity of Newport Beach. As Lelu described it to me, REST strives

Hello, List, I am a new user of the R project, and I need some help in plotting a legend. I am using the PBSmapping library to plot map of Ohio and heat color it with the count of employees in each county. As a guide, I am using "Data Mashups in R." I am able to plot the map with the colors; however, I would like to put a legend with a single box full of these colors, but only show

Hi, I was trying to use the geocoding stuff in Mapstraction and found a bug with IE6. I couldn''t find a way of submitting it on Trac, so here it is. Change line 110 of mapstraction-geocode.js from: place = response.Placemark[0]; to: var place = response.Placemark[0]; Otherwise IE6 doesn''t declare the variable properly and things break in obscure ways. Cheers, Tom

I am trying to use the marker method addlistener(). A simplified version of what I''m trying to do: var map; var marker; map = new mxn.Mapstraction(''myMap'',''google''); map.setCenterAndZoom(new mxn.LatLonPoint(45.559242,-122.636467), 15); marker = new mxn.Marker(new mxn.LatLonPoint(45.559242,

Did you make sure localhost resolves? Also, depending on your /etc/resolv.conf, you may have to fully qualify the host's name including the DNS domain. I seem to rember having problems with this, and some combination of using localhost or hostname.domain.edu or using the actual IP address of the host cleared up the problem.
