I’m sure some mailing list services handle Markdown to HTML conversion, but I use Sendy, and it doesn’t. It doesn’t really even have a decent WYSIWYG editor. I wanted to create good-looking emails while just writing in Markdown, like I do everywhere else.

Merry Christmas! I’m all alone for the most part today (I’m ok with it), so working on a few different projects. Here’s my 4am accomplishment, such that it is.

I’ve updated the Homebrew formula for Gather to use binaries instead of requiring Swift to compile. This will make it much, much easier for most users to install it using Homebrew.

Apex was designed to make using existing Markdown syntax from a range of tools (CommonMark, GFM, MultiMarkdown, Kramdown, mmark) easier — not to add a bunch of new or special syntax. Plugins allow you to add your own syntax and even entirely new tools to markdown generation, keeping the core focused while giving you the flexibility to extend it however you need.

This is currently a work in progress, but I have a 0.1.0 release of a “One Ring To Rule Them All” Markdown processor published.

NA has always had its own search syntax for navigating TaskPaper files, but it didn’t understand TaskPaper’s actual search syntax. I thought it might be time to change that.

I whipped up a script this morning to simulate Finder’s “Open With…” menu from the command line. It extends the macOS command with a command line menu selection of apps able to open the file you specify.

I recently built a WordPress plugin specifically for my friend Allison Sheridan over at Podfeet Podcasts. She had a huge mind map she wanted to display on her blog — HTML embeds were messy and broke the site, PNG exports were unsearchable and impossible to navigate, and she didn’t want to just offer an OPML download. So she output an SVG, and I built a viewer to embed it in a WordPress post with nice zooming and panning, text searchability, and a bunch of customization options.
