It's called "Markdown". It is interesting/neat because it uses "plain text" formatting, such as we often use in email as its source and can reformat that into HTML or XHTML.
http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ I think it is interesting because I like the idea of using text which is readable "as is", such as in ISPF edit or browse, and being able to use that to create HTML for web pages. I got a pointer to it from "github", which is something else that I'm looking at the possibility of using for something. But I'm unsure of this other use, so I'm still mulling it over in my mind. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
