GFM syntax is used, but it does go through additional processing before being 
turned into what we see in the IDE.  All of that code resides in the IDE so it 
can be leveraged to process the updates.  I actually modified a stack that can 
allow the editing of a doc and then preview it in a browser.  I’ll need to find 
where that is posted and link here for reference this evening.

For license, I was only referring to the flow back into the main project which 
has the dual commercial/GPL license.

Thanks,
Brian
