Hi Karl, Thanks for the work. I already saw it on IRC too ;) On a quick glance I see that the numbered bullet items are not incremented on your version anymore: > After: > http://static.karl.berlin/smu-preview/dwm.suckless.org/patches/moveresize/ I've noticed some minor issues like this on the (current) wiki. Certain things are not well-defined in Markdown and are different in the Markdown dialects (for example compared the previous Markdown processor it used: "discount". There some (different) things are broken too. Can you try to get the improvements upstream to Gottox (if you haven't tried it already of course). -- Kind regards, Hiltjo
