***********Fri, 27 Jul 2012********************************* Hello List , ???????????? I'm new to this list and have a question to format special characters.

I am doing unit-tests for Maruku and every once in a while I run into some doubts. I am posting a lot to the list, but all of these messages should be in-topic (tell me if not). Consider the input: --- `There is a literal backtick (\`) here.` `There is a literal backtick (\\`) here.` ``There is a literal backtick (`) here.`` --- The documentation says that line 2 and 3 are equivalent.

...caping causes a performance hit. My initial reaction is to say that this is jquery's problem, but what do you think? Should the various implementations that support footnotes all change to not use colons? I couldn't help but note that Gruber's unreleased implementation (what he uses on daringfireball.com) appears to use dashes instead. Any thoughts?

this is fascinating: > http://daringfireball.net/linked/2011/08/05/markdown-uti i don't know (and don't care about) any possible significance of such a pronouncement on a "uniform type indicator", but i think that it's interesting that gruber has decided to make _any_ type of statement on markdown, with the big moves no...

Hello! Is there a simpler, better designed guide to Markdown than http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ that I can refer my forum users to? Something Googleish-looking. Or do forum owners usually end up having to write their own guides? Thank you! Mikkel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I noticed the markdown used for http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/had this: Discussion List <a id="discussion-list" /> --------------- It seems to be a way to associate id's or classes with markdown elements. Is this a standard "best practices"? I've gone a different direction in my use of MD. I have a...

I'm using the PHP port of Markdown, but I noticed the same effect on your dingus <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus> The problem I'm seeing is when I have an bulleted list and the last item of the list contains a block quote. The blockquote does not terminate correctly, and adding another blockquote after the list ends up extending the original blockquote. Here's what...

Any ideas?

Markdowners, just a short heads-up to a newly released Markdown implementation: "pegdown" (http://github.com/sirthias/pegdown) implements a Java Markdown-to-HTML processor based on a PEG parser with the grammar being based on John MacFarlanes C implementation "peg-markdown". pegdown uses "parboiled" (http://www.parboiled.org) for the actual parsing work and, as

All but the final hyperlink fail to be functional. You can verify this behavior in Dingus<http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus>. I'd paste my sample directly in Gmail, but it would actually fix the URLs and obscure the problem. I believe this is easily fixed by altering the regex responsible for parsing [name](url) syntax to be lazy rather than eager. -- Cheers, Andrew Pennebaker ww...

...emphasis. I realise that the horse has bolted, and changes to currently supported functionality are unlikely to attract support. However, there does seem (at least in my tiny mind) to be a mis-match between the following stated goal and the present implementation of emphasis: Quote (from http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#philosophy): Markdown?s syntax is comprised entirely of punctuation characters, which punctuation characters have been carefully chosen so as to *look like what they mean*. It seems to me that *writers* who are not programmers are thinking in terms of italic, bold...

Hi, Is there a way to have markdown automatically convert obvious (http, mailto) URL's to links? i.e: http://example.com -> <a href="http://example.com>http://example.com</a> Thanks, -- http://www.critikart.net

I''m trying to add a RewriteRule to my .htaccess to remove the www. prefix from requests. The following works on its own: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.mysite.com RewriteRule (.*) http://mysite.com/$1 But it blows up when I try to add it to my .htaccess file. I''ve tried moving it around, before and after the various Rails-specific rules, but I can''t get it to work.

Hello list ... I read all that I could at: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ as well as the man-page. I'm still not sure as to how to get the output written to a file instead of the screen. For example, I did: markdown --html4tags convert-this.txt Should I be redirecting the output to a file, like: markdown --html4tags convert-this.txt > co...

According to John Gruber's syntax page http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#blockquote it is possible to nest a code block in a blockquote. But Markdown.pl 1.0.1 shows some strange behavior in this respect. Let me take the following text example (I use `***BEGIN**` and `***END***` as delimiters for the examples): ***BEGIN*** This is a block o...

where are the worthwhile markdown dingi? (dinguses?) i'm interested in any dingus that can take a "reasonable" amount of text -- let's say anything up to a megabyte -- and return the results in real-time, without a long wait... ideally it'd handle something more than gruber-minimum, and an a.p.i. (that'd take a u.r.i. as input) would be dandy... bonus points for
