MultiMarkdown 4.7 was recently released, and I decided it was time to catch my Quicklook plugin up with it. This version of the MultiMarkdown QuickLook plugin allows for custom styling when previewing Markdown files in Finder. Full details on GitHub.

I’m working on a new splash/intro section to embed in Marked 2. It’s coming along nicely, and in addition to offering a “Getting started” series of slides, it can set groups of configuration options with a single button. Now that Marked has attempted to satisfy so many different writing workflows, it’s become overloaded with options (i.e. “bloated”). This simplifies things greatly (details:1).

I’ve had a few requests from people who missed the first (limited) run of The Lab v2 t-shirts. I think there’s enough interest to do a small run, so if you missed out the first time around, now’s your chance.

Marked 2.4.11 is out in the updater for direct customers (MAS update coming, hopefully soon). It’s a leap forward in speed when analyzing text on large documents, fixes multiple bugs, and hopefully represents a significant improvement in stability for all customers.

As you probably know, I’m a fan of BitTorrent Sync. When it comes to fast file sharing, there are a few really good options (that almost all trump Dropbox for me), and Sync is one of the best. I’ve been beta testing version 2.0 and am excited to announce that it’s stable and available today!

You’re a high schooler. You love music. You want to play music. Not marching band music, and orchestra isn’t cutting it for you. You want your own band.

Thanks to Paddle for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week. I use Paddle for Marked 2 and it’s been so good that I’m planning to use it for a couple of (secret and not-so-secret) upcoming apps. I just integrated the new analytics features, and with two lines of code I’m receiving opt-in analytics info that’s helping me make solid development and marketing decisions.

I’ve been tweaking the Titler Service I published last week a bit over the last few days. It’s now an official “project” with its own page. I wanted to push this version out before I lose any more time to it, but if you run into any problems, be sure to drop me a line.
