Html that looks like markdown #14

Closed mihai-stancu closed 9 years ago

mihai-stancu commented 9 years ago

Hi,

I added a separate CSS file that makes the rendered HTML look as if it were markup code -- just for the heck of it so I can claim visual homoiconicity.

Interesting, but why? What purpose does it have?

mihai-stancu commented 9 years ago

I mentioned it the pull request "for the heck of it" -- just for fun.

I'll be using it on my blog as part of my theme because I want it to look like Markdown but other than that it servers no real purpose.

It could be a nice learning tool -- allowing you to learn Markdown visually -- but then again 10 super simple, super logical pseudo-syntax rules aren't that hard to learn anyway.

Ok. I think you should rather put it up as a separate repo or something. Doesn't really fit here to be honest :)

Thanks for your time. I'll leave it in the fork for now. Later perhaps I'll give it a separate repository with a dependency towards you.
