Topic awaiting preservation: Markdown (Page 1 of 1)

I gotta go post-haste, but I saw this and thought the Asylum would love it. From the page:

Introduction
Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).

It's a perl script that turns text written like this into compliant code like this. I have yet to test out its claims but I'd love to type out like crazy and let the computer generate the markup as I dictate. I'm not exactly a fan of WYSIWYG editors and this looks infinitely tweakable.

Well, *I* love it. Be Back later. Pets.

Hey... that looks fairly cool. I posted about it on my blog too. I fully intent to test it... sometime.
