Ruby

Any way to get RDoc style labelled lists in Markdown? e.g. in RDoc:

Author:: John Joe

In Markdown?

Nope. Maybe some superset out there, but not markdown proper.

Seems to be a kramdown extra:

Look at pandoc too, this also supports definition lists.

pandoc can do some really neat stuff, like exporting to slideshows. And
there’s a neat wiki which incorporates it: http://gitit.net/

It’s written in Haskell, which for me means treating it as a (very
shiny) black box :slight_smile:
