Because Markdown is relatively straightforward and standardized, Markdown files can easily be converted to other formats, including HTML for posting on Web sites, RTF or Word’s. It’s plain text, which keeps files small, easily manipulable, and portable across multiple apps on every computing platform. Markdown, which took some of its design cues from the setext markup language that Adam Engst helped Ian Feldman develop 25 years ago (see “ TidBITS in new format,” 6 January 1992), has become popular over the last decade. Although the results were useful, many people made it clear that they have traded traditional word processors for apps that support the Markdown text markup language, originally designed by John Gruber of Daring Fireball fame. We recently asked TidBITS readers to vote for their favorite word processors (see “ Vote for Your Favorite Mac Word Processor,” 10 July 2017).
