i have developed a software for linux, #Xwriter , with the possibility to save/read Zip markdown files (.mdz) with images
This new format is based on #markdock, an extended markdown syntax to write/exchange rich-text documents based on markdown
I wish this new format becomes more popular, i have develop #Xwriter for a proof of concept, I'm not a software developer, but the possibility to make mardown-based document in a zip file is definitively a good feature i enjoy

Xwriter V0.4.1 is out

This release contains :
1. Files inclusion with the syntax : {{include filepath/filelink}}
2. Bug fix/User-interface improvement
3. Markdown archive .mdz works with more than 1 markdown file at the root ( tested with github zip file )

#Xwriter #markdown #markdock #richtext #richtexteditor

may be #Xwriter could be the next #emacs with :
1. #tcl instead of #lisp
2. #markdock instead of #orgmode

Still lot of works, but it will be great
It could even be possible to make a tcl/orgmode combo 😲

Note : #markdock is an extended markdown syntax to make rich-text document

The 3 main features i use in #Xwriter I didn't find in another #markdown editor :

1. Hide markdown symbol : you can display your file as a rich-text document, very usefull
2. Extended syntax : you can underline, justify text, change font size/family/color, make border.... all this without HTML
3. Save the file+images in zip archive i can open in Xwriter. I use it more and more to manage all my documents

#richtexteditor #markdock

The more i use #markdock in my everyday documents, the more i like it

That's great when you can use an extended #markdown syntax to make text justification/color, metadata, pagebreak, document title, image size, HTML alias, include files without using HTML

There is definitively a place for a new markup language between the simplicity of markdown and the complexity of HTML/XML/Latex...

I hope to convince the #opensource community, not to be popular, but because it's so much usefull 👍

Xwriter V0.4.0 is out !
Bug fixes and User-interface improvement in this version

#Xwriter is a rich-text editor with an extended #markdown syntax and #pandoc under the hood

Teasing : V0.4.1 will add files 'transclusion' (include files)

In the next release of #Xwriter coming soon, I changed 2 rules :
1. HTML alias as :
`Text`{serif #red ...}
2. Paragraph indentation as :
|1/2/3Tabs+Text

These syntax are just better in plain-text and are closer to the syntax already used in pandoc

#markdown #markdock #editor #richtext #RichTextFormat #richtexteditor

a few months i used markdown to write rich-text documents. Here is the main syntax i need :
# Document title [2 trailing spaces]
__underline__
:: Fully justified
::: Center
{{serif;#red;...}} Text {}

This syntax works for me : easy to remember, good in plain-text, no interference with markdown syntax
I use a software i develop for that ( #Xwriter )

@rufovillosum
i worked on a markup language, based on markdown, which add text justification, html alias, document title, underline...
the name is #markdock if you are curious

In my journey to code a rich-text editor based on #markdown , i realised you just need 5 simple features :

1. a simple syntax for document title
2. a simple syntax for text justification
3. a syntax for HTML alias
4. a simple syntax for picture width
5. a zip file to encapsulate everything

If you are curious, or want to talk about using markdown as a rich-text document reference, use hashtag #markdock
