[SOLVED] Github markdown editor?

turboscrew · 11-30-2015, 04:31 PM

That hoedown I have to check.

I tried 3 or 4 chrome markdown editors (on chromium) and none of them worked.

And by the way, Atom works well.

This one just runs in the browser, nothing to install:

I seem to be too stupid to use it.
Like how should the editing start?
Drag and drop didn't work.

Copy and paste what you have in the left column.

I selected Emacs Holy, but I found myself using basically Vim (':' brought me to command buffer) and I had to use 'a', 'i' or 'o' to write anything. I checked the dot-file and the settings were consistent with my selections.

Slackware comes with emacs as a standard package. There's an elisp package manager (ELP) that can get elisp packages for you. M-x package-list-packages

Get the "gh-md" package which uses the Github API to render a buffer for you. M-x gh-md-export-buffer will write the results into an html file that you can view in your favorite browser. markdown mode is also available via ELP.

You can also get gh-md from https://github.com/emacs-pe/gh-md.el but it's simpler to use the emacs package manager to install elisp bundles.

Here's a local alternative that doesn't require an internet connection to run:

- Install webkit, pywebkitgtk and Markdown from SBo
- Get and run this: https://github.com/davidbecker/slack...arkdown-editor

Ohh, this is useful! I don't have any of the issues turboscrew seems to have. Works excellently! Thanks!

Noscript?

In about.config javascript seems to be enabled.
I have adblocker, but disabling it didn't have any effect.

If the filename has extension .md then it acts as a viewer?
Still no idea about how to edit anything.

It loads just fine on Firefox here, so one of your extensions must be borking it.

Java seems to be disabled - needs updating (again!).

Also, could it affect that my Firefox is ESR?
On the other hand, my chromium is not... ;-)

I noticed that it doesn't bold or underline.

I use this:

I also playtested typora, and it's good if you want WYSIWIG.
