Mario, Some progress here, thanks.
Codemirror allows indents/with tabs, but the render does not honor them, but here I want no indent, just a paragraph. In my case I already use ":" to indent and make an effective paragraph, multiple indents as well, as you know ";" is bolded but is does what I want otherwise, but since I we are dealing with paragraphs it seems best to use the html P tag. At one point I removed the bold with ;.p where p was a class name that unbolded it. But ;.p is surprisingly distracting. I notice that using period as the second character to ;.classname and :.classname works, so theoretically ..classname could also work while rendering the text in an un-indented paragraph. But I am not wedded to period, however it is nicely easy to access on the keyboard (no shift) and it is often so unassuming if it was at the beginning of a paragraph (not wikifield) it is almost unnoticeable. One idea is what if we used an invisible character? eg; non breaking space, one that is otherwise ignored?, the only question is how do we get a single key entry, and ideally display while editing raw text. I also created .q and .a classes to highlight Questions and their Dnswers differently and this also allowed the Questions and answers in a long text to be listed in a footer. With matching I listed unanswered Questions. You can see here, this provides an ad hoc way for an author to add annotations, classification and formatting details to their content as they write, a bit like a home grown shorthand, which is what markup is all about. I may also add when trying to take notes in a class or watching a video the more easy tricks the better. Regardless if such "customisations" were hackable more can be done. Inventions we can't imagine. - One I can imagine - an indicator to later excise, and transclude or Link to that transclusion (needs beginning and end, or default to end of line/paragraph) Regards Tony On Thursday, February 27, 2020 at 8:52:17 PM UTC+11, PMario wrote: > > Did some more experiments and found out, the "dot" as an indicator is > problematic. > > eg: I want to be able to create indented paragraphs, which is only > possible at the moment with lists and special CSS > > So, I used the tick ´ as an indicator: > > ´.test some text ... will create > > <p class="test tc-p1">some text<p> > > ´´ some more text ... will create > > <p class="tc-p2">some more text<p> > > Which should allow us to create text like this: > > some text > > some more text > > The line spacing can be done with CSS using .tc-p1, .tc-p2 or tc-p3 ... > Maximum 3 levels should be possible. > > If we use a dot, we loose the "user defined class" see ´.test at the very > first example. > > I'm not so happy with the ´ tick or the dot. ...
