I agree, and went the html road as well for a time, but I hit roadblocks:
- When I'm in the flow, I really don't want to think about the structure of my text. The ms required for the tag insertion breaks that.
- Unless you very disciplined with your HTML use, it's hard to get back structure from you HTML doc. You have to limit yourself to the subset you would get from markdown.
I'm experimenting with asciidoc now, let's see if it's working.
- mro_name 6y agowhen in flow - does markup really matter then or is it mainly about letters and whitespace in sequence like text/plain? Not sure but guess for me the latter, what about you?
- enriquto 6y ago> is it mainly about letters and whitespace in sequence like text/plain? The main inconvenience of writing plain html is the need for <p> tags. They really do break the flow! It would be so much better if a blank line inserted them implicitly. This is indeed the killer feature of markdown and TeX.
- mro_name 6y agojust add them 'after flow' and replace /^$/ -> </p><p> ?
- BiteCode_dev 6y agoYou just wrapped your titles in <p>
- megous 6y agoYou can use style="white-space: pre-wrap" on a div, and deal with the structure later. You'll still be able to use links and images, and the text will not look like a turd, before you get to finishing up the structure. At that point you can remove the pre-wrap style.
