[edit] Description

Markdown is a structured text tool from John Gruber.

[edit] Advantages

• Relatively easy to learn.
• Leaves the text easy to read after markup.

[edit] Disadvantages

• Most implementations have a hard time correctly rendering file or variable names with underscores in them. Remembering to escape the underscore in every\_farking\_variable and HKLM\_REGISTRY\_KEY is a pain!
