Is it safe to use for non Github Markdowns? #17

Hi,

I want to be serious in regards of Markdown and I find your plugin excellent. However, I will write first in MultiMarkdown or original Markdown.

Is this plugin safe to use with these Markdowns?

@uryupinsk I don’t know what do you mean by “safe”

If you mean that your text would not be corrupted in some way then yes, it’s completely safe.

If you mean that all elements are highlighted exactly as they would be rendered by MultiMarkdown or by the original Markdown then no, for now this follow the GFM (Github Flavoured Markdown) syntax.

In practical terms, some things would not be highlighted properly but it depends on what you are writing and on what feature/extensions of the syntax you want to use

My advice is to try it and see if it suits your needs

FYI: +1 - you should try it. It makes editing *.md files much nicer.
