Show HN: Markdown for Edward Tufte style layout
- macmac 11y agoWhy invent new markup (eg for links), instead of just extending markdown?
- vpj 11y agoWanted to keep the syntaxes consistent accross a other features in wallapatta, like inline images ([[ ]]), super script (^^ ^^), etc
- brudgers 11y agoI had to look at the blog post http://vpj.github.io/wallapatta.html http://vpj.github.io/wallapatta.html and particularly the example code with output to the right before I "got it". It reminds me of Emacs org-mode in terms of the underlying structure and output. On the other hand, I'm not convinced that pytonic semantic white-space is an improvement over org-mode's use of more explicit markup. Maybe it's because for me there's a mental friction between the indentation of a line and it's left justified output. Good luck.
