where are the worthwhile markdown dingi? (dinguses?) i'm interested in any dingus that can take a "reasonable" amount of text -- let's say anything up to a megabyte -- and return the results in real-time, without a long wait... ideally it'd handle something more than gruber-minimum, and an a.p.i. (that'd take a u.r.i. as input) would be dandy... bonus points for

I'm using the PHP port of Markdown, but I noticed the same effect on your dingus <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus> The problem I'm seeing is when I have an bulleted list and the last item of the list contains a block quote. The blockquote does not terminate correctly, and adding another blockquote after the list ends up extending the original blockquote.

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

This does not produce the expected output, yet does work on the dingus [1]: * asdf * asdf >> require ''maruku'' => true >> doc = Maruku.new("* asdf\n * asdf\n") => md_el(:document,[ md_el(:ul,[md_el(:li_span,["asdf * asdf"],{:want_my_paragraph=>false},[])],{},[]) ],{},[]) >> doc.to_html => "<ul>\n<li>asdf *

I'm using Michel Fortin's MDTest cases to rewrite my html2text.php script. Just now I stumbled upon this bug (in PHP Markdown at least): # Input: Backtick: ``\``` # Output: <p>Backtick: ``&#96;``</p> # Should-Be Output: <p>Backtick: <code>`</code></p> If you (Michel) are already aware of this, just ignore me ;-) -- Milian Wolff

I ran into a weird problem while writing my own little guide to Markdown (using Markdown, of course). The document is mostly made of list items in nested ul's. As I neared the end, I found (via MarsEdit's preview) that in place of two sections of content, Markdown had begun to generate gibberish strings like this: aa9ca05a7c006bc5e5c091c00aee0cd7 After weeding through different

Hi I hope I haven't missed anything which answers this question on the syntax page, but what is the correct behaviour of the following markdown random text heading == random text # heading random text + list 1 (note there is not space before the '+') The following page treats the headings differently to the start of the list http://old-wp.slekx.com/the-markdown-tutorial/ That

I noticed the markdown used for http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/had this: Discussion List <a id="discussion-list" /> --------------- It seems to be a way to associate id's or classes with markdown elements. Is this a standard "best practices"? I've gone a different direction in my use of MD. I have a trivial jQuery stunt that looks for

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

Hi, I'm writing a Markdown Parser in Scheme by porting bits of Markdown.pl. As you're probably aware, the Perl version massages the file into the final output with a number of regexes. In my version I'm trying to use the regexes to detect the starts and ends of the features and then take specific action to emit the final representation. I'm doing it this way because I want to

Hello, I have just subscribed to this list. I will introduce myself: For some time, I have kept a markdown implementation in awk for personal use, different from other implementations. Now, I'm in the process of rewriting it and I'm trying to do it as compatible as possible. There are many questions I have, I know some test suites and am trying to pass those tests. When I don't know

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],

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

recently though about image captions, then i realized that this could be achiebed by Markdown Extra's definition list feature:  : here goes the *caption* What do you think? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I just realised I hadn't updated the version of PHP Markdown and Extra on the dingus as I pretended I did in my two announcements. It is now fixed: PHP Markdown 1.0.2b7 and PHP Markdown Extra 1.1b1 can now be tested on the dingus. <http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/dingus/> Sorry for any inconvenience.

According to the official Markdown syntax documentation, "List items may consist of multiple paragraphs. Each subsequent paragraph in a list item must be intended by either 4 spaces or one tab." But Markdown.pl (v. 1.0.2b7 & 1.0.1) seems to allow continuation paragraphs that are indented fewer than 4 spaces. So, for example, given the following input --------------------- 1. one

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

Dear Folks, I am just starting out with Markdown and am trying to get two elements working: (1) An inline HTML link; and (2) An inline mailto: link as shown in the text below: We invite you to [browse] (http://academy.swanlotus.com/index.html) this website. Take a look and see if you find anything useful. And do [drop us a line] (mailto:feedback at swanlotus.com) with your comments for

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
