PHP Markdown
I offer my unadulterated praise to PHP Markdown. Markdown is a way of writing that can be converted to HTML. I use the BBEdit Markdown Plugin from Daring Fireballto write XHTML (including these blog posts) and it saves loads and loads of time.
I decided to add the ability to use markdown to linkwalla, to make it easy to add HTML to the link descriptions. I was able to get every thing working in about 20 minutes, I downloaded PHP Markdown and edited one file in linkwalla. Suddenly linkwalla is feeling much richer. That's some nice modularity right there.
So the when the next update of linkwalla come out, and that will be real soon, you'll be able to use Markdown. The only downside is the 40k markdown.php file is about the same size as all the rest of linkwalla combined, so I'll have doubled the download size of linkwalla. But sub 100k is still pretty lightweight.
