I have a doubt about the standard syntax (actually, it's the only test
that maruku doesn't pass yet).
Lists MUST be preceded by an empty line?
So the following are only 4 paragraphs, without list items, right?
-----------
Paragraph and no space:
* ciao
Paragraph and 1 space:
* ciao
Paragraph and 3 spaces:
* ciao
Paragraph and 4 spaces:
* ciao
-----------
In other words, a paragraph, once started, eats everything until a blank line?

I don't think this is documented in the syntax documentation. Michel Fortin michel.fortin at michelf.com http://www.michelf.com/

I think every block-level element > should be separated by a blank line.I think it would be parser-friendly, but not user-friendly. I find it very natural to write: * a list * without * a blank line and I see this "format" often in emails. -- Andrea Censi "Life is too important to be taken seriously" (Oscar Wilde) Web: http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/~censi
