How do you prefer to write text
I can't help but ask. When did they start calling HTML markdown? When Markup started sounding so old and a new buzzword was agreed upon?Format depends on the purpose. Might be plain text. Otherwise:
- Markdown for something to flexibly publish in different target formats, e.g. HTML
- LaTeX for a print document where I want full control over the final layout
!}fmt
series of keys becomes like a compulsion for me!Markdown isn't HTML. It's text that contains formatting instructions within it. It was created by John GruberWhen did they start calling HTML markdown?
Never? But Markdown is a nice input format to generate a lot of output formats from, for example HTML. That's what I'm doing (using textproc/hs-pandoc) to create for example things like this:I can't help but ask. When did they start calling HTML markdown?
FreeBSD never holds your hand (if you don’t count the excellent documentation). There’s no automatic configuration. The defaults mostly match a server workload; if you want to use it on a desktop, you have a lot of manual work to do and of course install many packages.

Yes. Drives me insane. I was writing XHTML 1.0 Strict when you were still in diapers boy!XHTML Frameset 1.0 allowed me to compensate for exceedingly well. I still have Markup that checks valid to taunt my Homie the Honorable [FONT=monospace]drhowarddfine[/FONT] with.

. There are thousands of parsers and renderers, and with software like e.g. pandoc, you can convert it to anything you like; that's what I meant with "flexibly publish in different target formats".And your father smells of raspberry-piYour Mother uses Dockers.

This looks like a perfect example of a document that would profit from Markdown.When I write something I want to keep it looks just like this when I open it again in Leafpad, even years later in any text editor.
