But wait, it's worse. Unlike ReStructuredText, there's no Markdown standard.
We agree that this is a problem, and it's why I don't use Markdown when tools don't force it.
In my last job, I had to use a suite of tools (from a single company that I won't name but is easy to guess :) ) for which no 2 tools used the same dialect of Markdown. :(
Truly a joy. I'm glad things are better now. :-)
Which begs the question, which dialect of Markdown are you suggesting we support. :)
If we go with Nick's idea of a client-side solution, we really don't have to pick just one flavor, though I'd expect GFM would win out for practical purposes. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fred at fdrake.net> "A storm broke loose in my mind." --Albert Einstein
