Plus adding comments would be good, but optional.
The explanation here is better: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4823468/comments-in-markdown [citation]: If you want a comment that is strictly for yourself (readers of the converted document should not be able to see it, even with "view source") you could (ab)use the link labels (for use with reference style links) that are available in the core Markdown specification: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#link That is: [comment]: <> (This is a comment, it will not be included) [comment]: <> (in the output file unless you use it in) [comment]: <> (a reference style link.) Or you could go further: [//]: <> (This is also a comment.) To improve platform compatibility (and to save one keystroke) it is also possible to use # (which is a legitimate hyperlink target) instead of <>: [//]: # (This may be the most platform independent comment) For maximum portability it is important to insert a blank line before and after this type of comments, because some Markdown parsers do not work correctly when definitions brush up against regular text. In general, this approach should work with most Markdown parsers, since it's part of the core specification. (even if the behavior when multiple links are defined, or when a link is defined but never used, is not strictly specified). -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
