You can even eliminate some of the blank lines like this: http://johnmacfarlane.net/babelmark2/?normalize=1&text=%3E+foo%0A%0A%3C!--+blank+line+--%3E%0A%3E+bar%0A%0A%3C!--+blank+line+--%3E%0A%3E+baz Although that breaks pandoc in strange ways. However, all other implementations handle that fine and you save a few blank lines in your document. The rest are necessary though. -- ---- \X/ /-\ `/ |_ /-\ |\| Waylan Limberg _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list Markdown-Discuss@six.pairlist.net http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
