similar to: a new acceptance of a variety of (inconsistent) markdown implementations

http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/?markdown=%3Ca%2Bb%40c.org%3E&normalize=on Only Python markdown, Pandoc, discount and PEG markdown seem to get this 'right'. As a + is perfectly valid in email addresses, I'm going to fix this in my modules. This was reported to me via the cpan.org RT (37909), and I thought I'd share as it's a good one in Babelmark.

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

Hello all. This is an update to PHP Markdown and PHP Markdown Extra correcting a couple of bugs that got reported since last release. I also decided to enable in this release shortcut-style reference links (as present in Markdown.pl 1.0.2 beta), as most implementations of Markdown accepts them by default. It's also because waiting for John to release officially version 1.0.2 as an

Hi, I've built a quick-and-dirty diff GUI for Babelmark (thanks, Michel!). You can get it as a bookmarklet here: http://attacklab.net/babelmark/ If either Michel or Tom is interested in hosting this, I'll be happy to do the grunt work for a real integration. It's kind of pain in the ass to hit the bookmarklet every time you get new data from the server. I've tested this

Consider this code span: `grep ' '`. All implementations listed on [babelmark](http://babelmark.bobtfish.net) just simply wrap it as: <code>grep ' '</code> Viewed in browsers, the above code is equivalent to: <code>grep ' '</code> I think spaces should be preserved in code span,which maintains consistence with code block. For

We recently received a request and working patch for Python-Markdown which adds support for starting an ordered list with the number given on the first line. For example: 3. Foo 4. Bar would result in <ol> <li start="3">Foo</li> <li>Bar</li> </ol> I'm not opposed to adding this, but I noticed that no other implementation

We recently received the following bug report for the python-markdown implementation: > The "&" are escaped in URLs. > > An example: > [Link](http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1) > > Should output: > <a href="http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1">Link</a> > > Currently outputs: > <a

I've just uploaded an implementation of markdown in C. It defines the syntax using a PEG grammar, so it should be easy to extend and modify. Right now it can produce output in either HTML or LaTeX, but it would be simple to add other output formats. It's very fast: on my machine, it converts a 178K markdown file in 0.14 seconds (vs. 9.6 seconds for the latest Markdown.pl and 0.57 seconds

I''m just a little curious if there are any Rails developers who joined NaNoWriMo.

As many of you know, when a piece of open-source software languishes with bugs for 3 years it's often forked Markdown.pl is licensed under the BSD license. (do `>tail -35 /path/to/Markdown.pl`) Has anyone thought of forking and maintaining Markdown.pl (hopefully with Gruber's blessing) to fix some of the known bugs? I'm not volunteering (I'd be horrible)... just seeing if

Hello, I'm trying to render the following page in markdown: http://lua-users.org/wiki/RiciLake This page was converted into markdown using Aaron Swartz's html2text [1]. And then rendered to HTML using Niklas Frykholm's markdown.lua [2]. Everything works quite nicely... except that under 'Lua Enhancements'... the very first header is not rendered as a header, but as

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

Last night I released version 2.3 of Python Markdown (see the release notes [1] for all the details). In addition to various other improvements, a new **experimental** extension was included that added a syntax for generating rST-style admonitions [2]. For a summary of the syntax, see the documentation [3]. A broader sample of the output can be seen on this page [4]. The source text can be found

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

Hello, This is a semi-complicated question about comparing two datasets, probably using merge, but I am open to other ideas. I have a large frame of information about companies.? It's over 30,000 rows and looks something like... df1 <- identifier1???? identifier2 name other_name year H34 C56 ACME ACME_LTD 2001 H34

Hi all, I made a new markdown editor for Mac, named Mou - http://mouapp.com It's still in early beta stage. Requires OS X 10.7+ to run. Let me know how do you think about it. :) Kudos to John Gruber who invented Markdown language, as always! :) Best regards, Chen Luo

let's talk about writing tools that use markdown (or more broadly, another form of light-markup)... to begin with, there is the markdown "dingus"... from a demo perspective, it has been _fantastic_. it has provided interested observers a quick idea about the simplicity and the power of markdown. as a writing tool, it's a bit clunky; it will work, yes, but i'd doubt many
