We built this with a lot of feedback and help from the HN community. When Cucumbertown[1] launched we had a lot of HNers like Trey who used to keep recipes in a Dropbox folder and share. The first version of the editor was form based (a bit like a survey form) and inhibited copy/paste and free form cursor movements. We hacked around that version for sometime time till we hit the limits. A textfield could only do so much. So some time back we decided to do a full rewrite, ground up pushing our limits with everything we learned. This editor tries to be unobtrusive, simple and smart. The engine behind the scenes does a lot of work including parsing, numbering, autocomplete etc. all the way to a beautiful output. Here’s an example: http://www.cucumbertown.com/onion-puffs-recipe-dish http://www.cucumbertown.com/onion-puffs-recipe-dish This is just a start and there’s a lot ahead of us. As always we would love your feedback. I hope this help HNers like munificient[2] move from textfiles to a better solution.
