I've tossed some extensions into discount so I can wedge <div> and <span> into the text without actually having to write them, so the only reason I use vanilla html is when I'm adding snippets of html from external sources (like bikely route html, statcounter poop, or railroa timetables) where I do not want to have them marked up. Doing something like >%class:pic% > [... all of the picture goop ...] (or however the other markdown implementations do their style hacks) has the decided advantage that even though it does require that you know about the styles you don't have to go back to html block matching; markdown already has a "you're in this block until you fall off the end" way of doing things, and (at least as far as I'm concerned) it's a better bet to try and follow that than to twine html more intimately than it already is. -david parsons _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
