The link I provided does have the latest code. If you visited the page somewhat recently you may need to do a refresh to see the latest changes. The code will state that is was last updated March 26 at the top of the code listing.
The updated code does handle doing lists that start with *, #, and -, but not +. I thought about it, but couldn't think of anytime I've seen it used. It would be very easy to add though to the code. Just edit the section "Check for lists" and add \\+ to the two regex finds. It has to be escaped since it's a special character for regex. I'll make an update when I get a chance, probably within the next 20 hours. -Kendall On Tuesday, March 27, 2012 2:18:19 AM UTC-4, KG wrote: > > @Kendall : just one more thing, can you provide a link to the latest > source. from the url you provided i don't see the numbered list edit that > you said you made > > Thanks > > On Tuesday, March 27, 2012 5:14:31 AM UTC+3, Kendall Conrad wrote: >> >> My Smart Newline script can achieve this.
