similar to: list corner case

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. of course,

Hello, How to correctly made multiline code block within a list, like.. * foo * bar * ``` Code 1 Code 2 Code 3 ``` * Another list item The above markup is not working, what I want is Code 1, Code 2 and Code 3 appear in different lines. Thanks.

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

Esteemed human authors and robotic parse-bots: I recently discovered that most or all Markdown implementations, including Gruber?s original in Perl, have an odd behavior with regards to lists that follow each other. Namely, a bulleted list followed by a numbered list, or vice-versa, is masked as if it were part of the first list (and of the first list?s type.) For example, consider the following

Hi John, there?s a bug in Markdown.pl: [foo*bar](#) [baz*quux](#) This expands to the following: <p><a href="#">foo<em>bar</a> <a href="#">baz</em>quux</a></p> Those `*` should either be disregarded or the tags should nest correctly: 1. <p><a href="#">foo*bar</a> <a

I've just released an early version of a Markdown implementation in Haskell (using the Parsec parser combinator library). pandoc converts Markdown to HTML, LaTeX, reStructuredText, rich text format, and S5 HTML slide shows. It partially converts HTML, LaTeX, and reStructuredText to Markdown. It also makes it easy to include LaTeX math on HTML pages, using Peter Jipsen's ASCIIMathML.js.

Has anyone seen any attempts to give Markdown a PEG (parsing expressions grammar) recognizable by some ruby PEG parser generator grammar like Treetop? http://treetop.rubyforge.org/

Dear Markdown enthusiasts out there! Sure, I don't need to tell you how great an versatile Markdown is for writing standard documents. I think, that it would make a really great universal standard as a programming documentation language, too, and maybe "CodeDown" would be a good title for this approach. The idea started when I was trying to document some PHP scripts. I need to

I don't believe this question has been discussed before on this list: Should whitespace be allowed between the bracketed and parenthesized parts of an inline link? For example, [foo] (/url) The markdown syntax documentation says explicitly that a space is allowed between the two parts of a *reference-style* link: > Reference-style links use a second set of square brackets, inside

Hello, I hope this is the right place to get help fixing an error when using Markdown on our servers. I'm not sure what our webmasters have done, but a recent change (perhaps to PHP?) made our Markdown text disappear from the page because of an error. PHP Warning: preg_replace_callback() [<a href='function.preg-replace-callback'>function.preg-replace-callback</a>]:

I'm pleased to announce the release of Pandoc 0.3, with many improvements and bug fixes. Highlights: - A real markdown parser, not based on regex substitutions. - [More accurate] and [faster], in many cases, than Markdown.pl. - Multiple output formats--HTML, Docbook, LaTeX, reStructuredText, RTF, S5 slide shows--all generated natively, with no XSLT postprocessing. - Converts *to* markdown

Does anyone know of a Markdown to LaTeX converter? I guess I could use HTML-Latex perl module. But Markdown direct to LaTex might be better. Or maybe I will adjust your Markdown.pm to do LaTeX output. Thanks

godspeed, steve. thanks for giving us the tools to catch fish. -bowerbird -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/markdown-discuss/attachments/20111006/3e1c11bd/attachment.htm>

S5 - http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/ - is an html-based slide-show system. It produces professional-looking slideshows from text with a little xml markup. Has anyone tried using Markdown to generate S5 slide-shows? I think this would be a pretty neat system. I'm thinking a level-1 header could be the slideshow title, and level-2 headers could define individual slides. Any thoughts? - Dan

The html document various characters like ? \xa0 ? \xa9 (Copyright symbol) (and others). I tried using html2text.py but it didn't like these characters. Any ideas on how I can use iconv or another tool to convert documents like this so I can then convert to Markdown? I don't want to do manually as I have around 500+ documents. Jeremy C. Reed

First we consider two lists with different type: - foo - bar 1. first 1. second There are two interceptions: a. one unordered list b. one unordered list followed by one ordered list Implementations conforming to a: - Markdown.pl - Python Markdown - BlueCloth - MarkdownJ - markdown.lua, - Showdown Implementations conforming to b: - PHP Markdown - Text::Markdown - Maruku - Pandoc - Discount

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've released the first beta of my e-book converter-tool. you are invited to throw stones at it (and at me) if you like: > http://jaguarps.com "beta" is a compromise. i developed it on a mac, so that particular version is solid. but "alpha" would be a better label for the status of the windows and linux versions, so if you have one of _those_ machines, and you

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
