Hi all, I'm a newer user of markdown & MultiMarkdown, and I'm looking for the perfect setup of software for my Mac and my Android phone. I'd like to have my drafts editable from both. What I want is an attractive Mac app for writing (primarily blog posts and emails) that saves its files as .txt . Most of them save as .md or .markdown instead, and since there doesn't seem to

Hello, markdown (Python implementation) seems to render:  to <img src="pfad/und/eine" title="lange/url zum bild.jpg" alt="alternativer text"/> breaking the URL at the whitespace. AFAIK whitespaces are ok in URLs so why is it breaking up the URL here? Thanks, Florian -- I'm using an

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 am considering writing converters between my "zen markup language' and "markdown", but i don't know which version of markdown to target. i'd think it'd be the "pandoc" version, and i understand that to be closest to "multimarkdown", but gruber has said he "disagrees" with "almost every part" of multimarkdown's syntax

hello, i am looking for advice regarding the best repo from which to download "markdown" for use on a mac. on my ubuntu machine i just installed some standard markdown package with apt-get. but i have not found anything equivalent for my mac machine. i am looking for a maintained package from a reputable repo site that can be automatically installed and upgraded using the packaging

Gentlefolk, I have been thinking on Markdown's lack of "proper" table support for a long while now. Here's where I have arrived... ## I Don't Like HTML Tables It is often argued that embedded HTML is the way to markdown rich tables. Unfortunately, this contradicts the higher markdown ideal that a raw markdown document (including tables!) should be good 1. Firstly for

Hi, because of the great editor "Writer" from Information Architects I've learned about Markdown and I love it. But it's very confusing, that there are so many standards with different features: classical Markdown, Markdown Extra, MultiMarkdown. I think for most users and the spreading of Markdown it would be nice, to have only one syntax. And this universal syntax should have

I'm curious how people think the following *should* be interpreted: - one 2. two http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/?markdown=-++one%0D%0A2.+two%0D%0A%0D%0A As you can see, implementations split into three groups here: (a) treat as an unordered list Markdown.pl, Python markdown, MultiMarkdown, BlueCloth, MarkdownJ, Showdown (b) treat as an unordered list with an ordered

How can we improve URL detection in Markdown? I posted a question on Stack Overflow and happened to click a URL in my post. To my surprise, it wasn't functional, and it took three different, nonintuitive manipulations before I achieved a functional URL. Stack Overflow says "not my problem", so I'm deferring to Markdown itself. Here's a

Howdy, I've been thinking a lot about definition list syntax, and what I did and didn't like about the PHP Markdown Extra syntax (which seems to be a de-facto standard, discount notwithstanding, yes?). What I came up with is a single character change to the PHP Markdown Extra syntax. I just published a detailed explanation of my thoughts and reasoning for this on [my

Not only is [Markdown] dead, it's starting to smell really bad. (Apologies to Pike.) It's author appears to have little interest in developing the tool and participating in the community which uses it. I'd like to see the community cooperate toward a specification which addresses the shortcomings and ambiguities of Markdown (even if it need be released under a new name).

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 now underfoot, and doubly so when he chooses to

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

nick said: > http://nickgravgaard.com/elastictabstops/ exactly. thanks for writing it up, nick. the only thing i'd add is the notion that tables should be copyfit to the viewport. if the viewport gives you plenty of room, give the columns some breathing space. if not, tighten them as much as needed. *** > http://readown.googlecode.com/ cool. now how about an

Hi, I have written my own implementation of markdown in Scala. I only later realized there is already one ( <http://tristanhunt.com/projects/knockoff/> ), but I put quite some work into mine and I think it is never bad to have alternatives, so I wanted to release it anyway. I want to use the same BSD License as the original markdown, but before I put it out into the wild I wanted to ask

It was a very useful feature for e-mail parsing and I miss it. I use PHP Markdown extra to send multipart alternative e-mail, and the short syntax [link] instead of [link][] is very clean and lean. Do you plan to implement it anymore? Or is there a tweak to get the present PHP Markdown Extra to parse [links] as [links][]? BTW I did not find mention of this in

like history, the future is decided by the people who write it... > http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2012/10/the-future-of-markdown.html by the way, if you want a form of light-markup which is still flexible enough to be molded, but will be _totally_ free of ambiguities and "edge-cases", and governed by a well-written specification and thorough documentation, along with an

Is there a file/document browser that render and display Markdown files? (for the Mac) jem

Hi there! (1.) It may sound awkward, but I would like to use comments in Markdown texts. According to the rule that proper HTML works as HTML, I should be able to use <!-- blablabla --> But the converters I use do strange things with comments. Is there an official rule about that? (2.) I wonder if there is a recommended standard file extension for Markdown source files. For my
