Does anyone know what happened to the push (primarily by Atwood) to create a spec for Markdown (possibly with a different name)?
Apparently it wasn't very successful: https://twitter.com/gruber/status/262287246953164800

#43I use Sublime Text 2 with Markdown Preview[1] + Live Reload[2] * [1] - https://github.com/revolunet/sublimetext-markdown-preview * [2] - https://github.com/dz0ny/LiveReload-sublimetext2
Otherwise, I don't get why you would bother learning several pieces of software, and each probably lacking many features of Sublime or other powerful text editors.

#44I've been using dillinger for a while, and I'm very happy with it: http://dillinger.io/ Also, it is open source: https://github.com/joemccann/dillinger
It appears to only be distributed as a web app. Apples and oranges. Also the editor looks like a code editor (Erato also kind of does, but it has a margin and it doesn't have line numbers by default).

#46Mou is donation based so you can try before you donate. The developer is very responsive and the app is constantly updated.
I really don't get it.

#47This has the same design as http://mouapp.com which has been on the market for a long time now. Mou is donation based so you can try before you donate. The developer is very responsive and the app is constantly updated. I really don't get it.

#48This is especially bad when there are images on the page. Why not just render the current block and leave the rest of the page as is.
Re: Erato - simple and beautiful markdown editor
#49You see, on the one hand I think this is kind of admirable. Yay, I type my markdown over here and I can instantly see the bits I got wrong over there . But I also can't help thinking, if you're going to all that effort why not go full WYSIWYG, with Markdown as the file format? (You'd need some kind of support for merge markers I suppose, I guess that'd be kind of tricky.) You know what it reminds me of? Wordperfect 5…

#50Looks like Mou ( http://mouapp.com/ ). Does anyone know the differences?
Erato has a more flexible window layout than Mou, and provides some nice editor shortcuts that programmers are used to (e.g. better identation features and block autocomplete).
