ok, while i was in the process of writing that last post, fletcher and john weighed in themselves. that's good. i can say some things that they can't, though, so i will. fletcher told you how multimarkdown is booming, and it was an impressive list. what you might not realize is, he _undersold_ it. it is even bigger than he described, and it's gonna _double_ in size in the next

looks like my message from last week about writing tools was right on time... we are enjoying a display of fireworks now going off in this particular arena... fletcher started work on an editing app with markdown-preview built right in, after reporting on his blog that he had "seen the future" in ali's post last month, where ali debuted his syntax highlighter, and fletcher is

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

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

MultiMarkdown 2.0.b1 includes an update to the core MultiMarkdown package, the Drag and Drop applications, the TextMate Bundle, and the Sample Document. There are a couple of significant changes in this release, as well as some bug fixes: * change \textwidth to \linewidth in LaTeX export XSLT files (let me know if this causes problems) * add Windoze compatibility to the perl scripts

I have released version 2.0.b5 of MultiMarkdown today. As always, it can be downloaded from: <http://files.fletcherpenney.net/MultiMarkdown.zip> Some of the changes include: * spaces at end of xslt filenames won't cause failure * use `\url{}` for "non-referenced" url's in LaTeX to allow linebreaks (though they still don't always break correctly --- this is a

I'm currently attempting to write a spec for parsing Markdown Extra, and since one goal is to minimize the differences in output between implementations, I've made a tool allowing me to compare who does what for any given input. I hope this can also facilitate future discussions about the syntax. So here's Babelmark, a testbed for various Markdown implementations were you

It appears that Markdown will process ampersands contained within HTML comments if that comment is part of a markdown paragraph, but will not when that paragraph is contained within an HTML block of it's own (and therefore ignored by Markdown.) For example: This is a markdown paragraph with a comment that *will* be processed <!-- This & *will* be converted -->

I know things have been quiet lately, but I wanted to announce a couple of MultiMarkdown related happenings: 1. I am in the process of creating a new website, and MultiMarkdown is one of the first things to be moved. The new address is <http:// fletcherpenney.net>. A new look, a new URL, some new technology, and some new content. I have not moved much from the old site yet, but

For those of you who are expert you may chuckle over this. Perhaps if it's in the record, however, it may help someone else. I was getting cases of <div id="content"> standing on a line by itself, getting converted to this: <p><div id="content"></p> Yes, the line above and below are blank. Yes the div tag is starting at the first column It

So, hi all. First time commenting on the list. I personally think having tags (whether of type "author:" or type "by") is useful for two reasons. One: It allows multiple tags to be entered. Two, it clears up the potential problem listed by Fletcher regarding tags. by Christoph Freitag Affiliation: XYZ by Fletcher T. Penney Affiliation: ABC tags: Markdown, Standardization,

Dear fellow Markdown enthusiasts, As you all might know, Markdown is a highly context sensitive language that the (often regex-based) syntax highlighting mechanisms in existing editors struggle to keep up with. I have taken John MacFarlane's excellent peg-markdown compiler and modified its parser to function as an interpreter for syntax highlighting purposes. The end result is a

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

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

Hello, As I am using markdown to write documentation, I am often tempted to make links to terms in definition lists. Since this is not possible for now (at least in php markdown extra), I was wondering if this could be a common addition in major implementation supporting definition lists. the syntax would be term {#id} : definition This syntax tries to follows current convention and

I have released version 2.0.a of MultiMarkdown! This is an alpha/beta release to get some further feedback, but I have been using it for a while now with good results. There are a **bunch** of new features: * TextMate bundle * New versions of the Drag and Drop tools * support for math * improved XSLT style sheets - easier to customize and more output choices Check out the MultiMarkdown

hey fletcher, thanks for your input here. :+) and -- quite obviously -- your program will be whatever it is that _you_ think that it should be. of course. the thing is, i am certain that i have been clear that the feature that i believe will be "killer" is on-the-fly formatted display. that's my stand. and i'd say my reasoning has been equally clear, namely that this
