Thanks for implementing Markdown-support in TBX v.7.2.
Markdown - Footnotes
However, the Preview seems not be able to display Markdown-footnotes.
Markdown - Multimarkdown
Is it possible to render the Preview instead of “just” Markdown as MultiMarkdown as well … which automatically takes care of the footnote-feature missing from plain Markdown-Preview-Rendering.
Where do you get the multimarkdown script from please?
I have Scrivener and MultiMarkdown Composer and Marked 2, all of which work fine for MultiMarkdown, but I don’t actually know where the underlying command/script is, so what is it exactly that I have to point to in $PreviewCommand please?
There’s actually nothing relevant in /usr/local/bin, but in the end I went diving into the gnarly depths of the Scrivener app.
For anybody else in this position (i.e. you want to use multimarkdown not markdown) the following works if you’ve got Scrivener installed: change the value of $HTMLPreviewCommand in the Markdown template to point to /Applications/Scrivener.app/Contents/Resources/MultiMarkdown/bin/multimarkdown.
@johnsidi could you give an example of some mediawiki/latex/markdown notes in Tinderbox that you successfully converted to html using pandoc in $HTMLPreviewCommand?
Or did you even get pandoc to work displaying those mediawiki/latex/markdown notes within Tinderbox in Preview-Mode?
In the following screenshots you can see how Pandoc converts expressions written in MediaWiki and LaTex to HTML which you can preview instantaneously on the Preview pane of Tinderbox. Generally, it works really well. Only some Latex symbols and equations cannot be converted by Pandoc.
As a result, for the first time I can write, preview and store my notes written in multiple markup languages using only one program, the amazing Tinderbox! I have never expected this to be a reality!
For rendering mathematical expressions in Multimarkdown you just need to add the following line at the beginning of a note and be connected on the internet.
If you want to see clearly all the examples please click on the images or download them because the images are very tall.
Thanks for this @johnsidi, very useful.
The multi markdown preview works wonders with me, except for the maths part. I’ve added the script call to MathJax at the beginning of the note but it doesn’t seem effective as the Math at the end is rendered as plain text.
Is there a toggle in TinderBox to activate scripting calls?
SOLVED
It seems the MathJax repository you were using has been deactivated. Following the recommendations on the MathJax website I used this line, which works for me:
How does one install MultiMarkdown on mac OSX? I kindly ask for your help.
I used to have everything set-up. But after a clean mac OSX install everything is gone.
So I installed MacTex lite, pandoc, MultiMarkdown-Composter … but nothing shows up in /usr/local/bin/ except pandoc and pandoc-citeproc … but nothing PaulWalters was pointing at in this post by @PaulWalters
on my entire machine I don’t find anything like that:
@johnsidi Can use pandoc to convert markdown html (in order to preview the markdown written text within Tinderbox’ Preview) or is one supposed to use a dedicated multimarkdown-converter like the one you chose from Scrivener?
