Noticed the patterns for setext style headings are: ^(.+)[ \t]*\n=+[ \t]*\n+ Should be: ^(.+?)[ \t]*\n=+[ \t]*\n+

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],

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

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

I was recently made aware of the the Markdown 1.0.2 beta 4 and naturally downloaded it in great anticipation, as I am a big fan of Markdown :) Though I did notice a significant performance drop: The TextMate manual is 3,000 lines (173 KB) and previously took 4-5 seconds to convert to HTML (measuring only time spent by `Markdown.pl`.) With the new version this has increased to almost 30

Hi, I'm using perl's HTML::StripScripts to clean out unwanted/broken html from forum post on my web site but it also removes <http://example.com> or <user at example.com> markdown constructs. Any idea how to make these two live together in harmony? Thanks, -- http://www.cruisefish.net

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

how do you install this? especially on rails 3? putting gem "redcloth", :git => "git://github.com/ROFISH/redcloth.git" doesn''t work. and do nested tags like [quote][quote][/quote][/quote] work? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

This update to PHP Markdown fix a bug that slipped in the WordPress interface with the last update. It also introduce a new "feature": you can now instruct the parser to ignore HTML tags and/or entities in the input. You can do this by instantiating yourself the parser and setting the `no_markup` or `no_entities` properties to true: $parser = new Markdown_Parser;

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

> 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,

Hi All, I was wondering what people thought to the idea of getting "[markdown]" added to the subject lines of all the mails to the markdown mailing list? It would certainly help me out with my email organisation. Many thanks CHEERS> SAM

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

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

Seeing how no-one should send application/xhtml+xml to the browser [1], and development of the HTML standard is again happening [2], it would make sense to have Markdown.pl default to HTML tags. Maybe too late to change a default though. How does PHP Markdown and other implementations deal with this issue? [1]: http://www.hixie.ch/advocacy/xhtml [2]:

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

Hi everyone, I am using package knitr, FIRST TIME. I don't have access to RStudio. Read through Yihui's page, didn't find it helpful. Stuck on terms Rnw, GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown). Never used Sweave, so the reference is not helping. Is there a simple step-by-step example WITHOUT RStudio? My question: What is the procedure? The documentation explains the functions, but does

Hi John, there?s a bug in Markdown.pl: [foo*bar](#) [baz*quux](#) This expands to the following: <p><a href="#">foo<em>bar</a> <a href="#">baz</em>quux</a></p> Those `*` should either be disregarded or the tags should nest correctly: 1. <p><a href="#">foo*bar</a> <a
