Hi, last push completed markdown support on the WYIWYG editor. Right now there's a markdown parser, a markdown renderer, a WYIWYG editor renderer, and an html from the WYIWYG editor to markdown syntax converter. [#1] has a bit more info on this.
The only item left, in order to have full Markdown support inside JSPWiki, is making the plain editor able to also output Markdown syntax when using the "snips" functionality, but I have no idea on what's the best way to accomodate this requirement. Right now the aforementioned parser, renderers, etc. are pluggable, so if anyone would want to write an extension to provide, say JIRA wiki markup support, it is possible to do so. Ideally, markdown support on the plain editor should be pluggable as well and allow third party wiki syntaxes. I've thought of providing the appropiate wiki syntax to the js files the same way I18N texts are passed, using the IncludeResources tag on the commonheader.jsp file, but I'm neither sure which files should be provided, nor javascript is one of my strong suits. Or maybe if it should be output a javascript object with the appropiate syntax, and modify whatever js files are required to read the markup snips (or whatever is needed) from this object? Dirk, WDYT? best regards, juan pablo [#1]: https://jspwiki-wiki.apache.org/Wiki.jsp?page=Markdown%20Support
