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

...quot;>foo<em>bar</em></a><em> </em><a href="#"><em>baz</em>quux</a></p> Of course, the second option is a lot more complex to implement and at the same time unlikely to be what the user actually meant. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>

...cal.org/~kragen/crywrap.html> the problem shows up anyway. Of course, neither tag has any business being in the HTML body; they should both be in the head. Since you?re loading BeautifulSoup anyway, you probably want to include that as fix-up step in your postprocessing. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>

I can't escape backticks if on a line with other code: $ echo 'maybe use `fixed face` for `/path/to/file` by using \`back ticks\` around it' | /usr/pkg/bin/Markdown <p>maybe use <code>fixed face</code> for <code>/path/to/file</code> by using \<code>back ticks\</code> around it</p> and this is even more wrong: $ echo 'maybe use

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.

Hi, I'm getting what I believe to be a bug. If I put the following in markdown: 1. This is a numbered list 2. Blah 9. This is another list item 10. Ok, weird bug here 11. It's really bothering me And when I run it through markdown.pl 1.01 I get out the following: <ol> <li>This is a numbered list</li> <li>Blah</li> <li>This is another

Hi, I'm in the process of adding support for Markdown to a minimal CMS in Rails, [Railfrog][railfrog], which uses mime types to select appropriate processing. I have had a look through the archives but have not been able to see that a consensus has emerged as to what such a mime type for Markdown should look like. My reading of the RFCs suggests that it should be within the "text/*"

(In the following I write <tab> because my MUA strips tabs) Consider the code: ---- Paragraph <tab> <tab> Line <tab> ---- or even: ---- Paragraph <tab><space> <tab> Line <tab> ---- Markdown.pl ignores the leading blank line in the code block. Is this intended behaviour? -- Andrea Censi "Life is too important to be taken

Hello to all! Maruku is a Markdown interpreter written in Ruby. It is released under the GPL. Maruku implements the original Markdown syntax and all the improvements in PHP Markdown Extra. Moreover, it implements some ideas from MultiMarkdown, and adds a syntax for specifying metadata for block elements. Unlike Bluecloth, Maruku creates an in-memory representation of the document tree, and this

Howdy, The following bug report was sent to the Debian BTS. Is there a way to have a code block immediately follow an unordered list? ----- Forwarded message from Joey Hess <joeyh at debian.org> ----- Consider this markdown: * bla * bla2 this should be treated as code block and it is not ... but if bullets are not above this, it works If the first code block is indented with

Hi, Is markdown a good language to use in a web forum application? How does it compare to bbcode in features and ease-of-use for non-technical users? I'm thinking of using jquery-markedit in that forum app. Thanks, -- http://www.cruisefish.net

Hi, first of all thanks for such a great syntax, so far it's the best I know! I have a document with quite long titles and I was wondering if it was possible to hard-break them: e.g.: This is a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrry long title ======================================================= would be This is a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrry

What's the difference between: <em>emphasis</em> and <i>italicized</i> and <strong>strong</strong> and <b>bold</b> It seems to subtle for my browsers. The only "difference" I've been able to find is that according to the O'Reilly book <strong> and <emphasis> are semantic tags, while <b> and <i>

I recently subscribed and saw in the archive that Eric Astor was asking for a formal grammar (unlikely the first time for such request.) Currently there are a few problems in making such a thing so I was curious if Mr. Gruber has made any thoughts about moving toward one? This would also allow a more ?clean? parser which would get rid of some of the current problems (bad nesting[^1],

> Anyway, a spec for Markdown Extra would contain a spec for Markdown as > well, wouldn't it? I think the whole enterprise would be a lot more valuable, if we produce a combined spec, which would be self-contained, and call it Markdown 2.0. I don't think we necessarily need a formal grammar. What we need is to create a document, starting with "Markdown Syntax" perhaps,

This is a new release for PHP Markdown, following Markdown.pl 1.0.2b7 from a few weeks ago. It fix the same bugs, and some more; it also introduce more radical backend changes. It can be downloaded here: <http://www.michelf.com/docs/projets/php-markdown-1.0.2b7.zip> and you can test it on the PHP Markdown Dingus: <http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/dingus/> This

Does anyone know of any larger newspapers or publishing companies that use Markdown? Several times I've noticed glitches in web page articles, posted at larger newspapers, where emphasis has been indicated by underlines and have wondered. Robert McGonegal

I want to use fixed font like a code block but also use italics and bold at same time. For example in HTML: <tt>$ <b>mail -u <i>user</i></b></tt> What is the best way to do this in markdown, especially if I have several lines of content that needs to be spaced out correctly? Thanks Jeremy C. Reed

Hi All, So I just joined the list - first off, Markdown is a great format and we're using it in our online community project disCourse: http://discourse.ics.hawaii.edu We're using markdown for our wiki pages, stories, message postings, pretty much everywhere. One markdown policy that doesn't seem to fit intuitively for our users is the fact that embedded underscores leads to

Hi guys, I wrote a markdown based Web editor thing for my sister: http://ws.dabase.com/ And she has trouble styling blocks of markdown. Since <div markdown=1>markdown here</div> does not work on my Debian markdown binary. Is there a formal definition of markdown? Or some sort of conformance test? And certain markdown implementations I should be using, and certain ones I should be
