"multimarkdown composer" has been out for 4 weeks now, so let's mosey on over to the app store to see what it says... "composer" is #184 in productivity apps, a bit disappointing, considering that it was in the top-20 when it first came out... it's gained only 5 reviews over the 18 it had right off the bat. perhaps even more surprising, to some, is that

> Anyway, a spec for Markdown Extra would contain a spec for Markdown as > well, wouldn't it? I think the whole enterprise would be a lot more valuable, if we produce a combined spec, which would be self-contained, and call it Markdown 2.0. I don't think we necessarily need a formal grammar. What we need is to create a document, starting with "Markdown Syntax" perhaps,

I've just spent a happy couple of days writing a text file for formatting with Markdown. The results are phenomenal! It's easy to write, and attractive to read. I'll try to send a Christmas present to the writer :-) But when I looked at the perl source, I also found that it was small and well-structured. Of course, I couldn't resist adding a few things that appealled to me.

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 just received a [bug report] for Python-Markdown complaining that colons are used in the ids of footnotes. For reference, we [output] the same format at PHP Markdown Extra. The general complaint is that the colon in the id attribute (`id="fnref:1"`) causes jquery to choke when referencing that id from javascript because jquery uses colons to indicate pseudo elements (as does CSS). As

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

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

Hello, I'm using Text::MultiMarkdown in my website, and I would like to know if there is any way to get syntax highlighting in code blocks. Thanks, -Mike Doherty

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

A lot of people have expressed interest in combining math features with Markdown, but I am not aware of any real developments from these requests. I was looking around and toying with [ASCIIMathPHP](http:// www.jcphysics.com/ASCIIMath/) and integrated it with MultiMarkdown and my xhtml2latex XSLT transforms. You can include math as an inline formula by using a markup similar to inline

Hi, Someone told me that DSA keys were being deprecated with OpenSSH 7.0. The only reference I could find about this topic on openSSH site is on the legacy page: ?OpenSSH 7.0 and greater similarly disable the ssh-dss (DSA) public key algorithm. It too is weak and we recommend against its use.? There is no explanation about the weakness. But more than that, I could not find any mention

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

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

I got a problem with UL followed by by OL when I using perl module "Text-Markdown-1.0.5". I wrote the following markdown code. - a - b 1. 1 2. 2 I expected that Text-Markdown would produce the following HTML. <ul> <li>a</li> <li>b</li> </ul> <ol> <li>1</li> <li>2</li> </ol> However, "Text-Markdown-1.0.5"

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
