Emphasis or Italic?
What's the difference between:
<em>emphasis</em> and <i>italicized</i>
and
<strong>strong</strong> and <b>bold</b>
It seems to subtle for my browsers.
The only "difference" I've been able to find is that according to the
O'Reilly book <strong> and <emphasis> are semantic tags, while <b> and <i>

While I empathize with your predicament, I generally prefer not to have
expletives in my inbox. Also, what has this to do with markdown?

here's the thing that tips the scale
ok, i waited for 2 weeks, and still no votes -- none! --
on whether my posts are sufficiently on-topic, or not...
and that basically confirms what i suspected all along,
which is that no one really cares one way or the other.
even the guys who put up the bitchy posts are probably
just having a bad day, and they don't have a dog to kick,
and the wife made 'em stop smoking herb, so they

voila. a dingus for zen markup language.
lighter than markdown.

not that it's a competition.

detractors will love the bugs i left in there,

back-translation and round-tripping
i'll be doing some experiments myself,
but i thought i'd ask here first about
back-translation and round-tripping
with markdown and its xhtml output.
the object is to take markdown output,
reduce it back to a markdown text-file,
then regenerate the output again and
compare it with the "original" output,
repeating if necessary until there exists
a pair of files that give perfect

that's a screenshot of my latest project...
i've slapped a little text-editor in front of

goosing the learning process considerably.

"beta" is a compromise. i developed it on a mac, so that
particular version is solid. but "alpha" would be a better

uniform type indicator
this is fascinating:

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

what will january 19th bring?
so, the rumor is that apple will announce
an authoring-tool for e-books tomorrow,
and most specifically for digital text-books.
and, if you look closely, they _are_ rumors.
nothing more... plus, they don't even seem
to be coming from sources inside of apple.
nonetheless, the rumor is "authoring tools".
"garageband for e-books", as ars called it...

congratulations to fletcher penney
big congratulations to fletcher penney on
his release of "multimarkdown composer".
at #21-paid when i purchased it just now.
i'd say $9.99 will be best in the long-term
-- don't listen to people who say more --
but $7.99 is the _right_ introductory price.
word-of-mouth will be what sells this pup,
so you want it to flow copiously right now.

i can justify myself. indeed, it's a good exercise every so often,
just to ensure that your position and directionality are focused.

macchiato -- so much for the markdown grapevine
so much for the markdown listserve grapevine...
it ends up that there has been a markdown-savvy

by the name of "macchiato", coded by a college kid.

on the philosophical aspects of a specification
a specification will _eventually_ be used, by someone,
to tell the user they are doing things "wrong", won't it?
and doesn't that turn markdown's genesis upside-down?
heck, next thing you know we'll be telling them to r.t.f.m.
i would prefer that implementers get more sophisticated
about teasing out the user's intent in "ambiguous" cases.

they say that deaths come in threes...
for me, it was these:
1. scott wannberg, los angeles poet, one of my favorite performers
2. michael hart, founder of project gutenberg, icon and iconoclast

i'm sure that for others, dennis ritchie is on their list, for his own

markdown conversion routines
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
