Markdown.mode

Markdown is a structured text format that is nice to look at both in plain text and when rendered into HTML. Markdown.mode is a syntax highlighting mode for TheCodingMonkeys' SubEthaEdit (SEE) and Panic's Coda text editors.

There are a few other Markdown mode implementations, also called Markdown.mode. This implementation attempts to more closely and fully follow the specification provided by the Markdown developers. I hope to later adjust it to match the output generated by Markdown.pl or another popular Markdown implementation.

Features

  • Almost full support for the highlighting Markdown syntax specification (see Known Issues)
  • HTML preview from within SubEthaEdit (look for Preview Markdown button in your toolbar)
  • SEE drop-down menu navigation based on Markdown section headers.

Forthcoming Features

  • Support for link and image syntax
  • Improvement of color-coding for both dark and light background styles
  • Adjusting the syntax highlighting behavior to better match the output of the canonical Markdown.pl or perhaps another popular Markdown->HTML converter.

Known Issues

  • The cascading and ordering of different elements sometimes results in improper styling until the line is re-rendered. This will take some long-term use and effort to fix.
  • Nesting of unclosed HTML tags in certain elements (i.e. code) breaks code folding and highlighting.
  • Full nesting of block elements within other block elements (i.e. blockquotes in lists, or code in blockquotes) may appear in the future, but is currently broken.
