Dave's doing stuff with markdown

[alexjj]

No doubt you saw but:

• http://docserver.scripting.com/?verb=string.markdownProcess
• http://scripting.com/drummer/blog/2021/11/02/143316.html?title=stringmarkdownprocess

Seemed relevant :)

Alex, thanks for the pointers, I did see that on Scripting News. I am interested to see how he incorporates that into use of the outliner. I would say that people could write Markdown in the outliner, then use this verb to process the text into a web page. I could see updating my script to support that at some point. If you have any thoughts to share, I would welcome them.

Be sure to try my script and let me know what you think about it!

I am also interested to see what Dave does with it, and whether it becomes part of oldschoolblog so we can write in markdown in drummer and it renders.

I started looking into your script and think I'm going to try it with my book list.

I had a poke about with the built-in standalone page generated with drummer, it doesn't quite work properly but I'm hoping Dave comes back and looks at it at some stage. I suppose the code is in oldschoolblog and any one can make a pull request on it. My blog post about it, and RFC.
