Bookmark: Using MultiMarkdown with Scrivener

From Fletcher Penny: “Using MultiMarkdown with Scrivener”

This document assumes a basic familiarity with Scrivener, and with MultiMarkdown. It is designed to help you combine the two programs into a system to help you with the writing process, as well as the printing and publishing process.

It will guide you through the process of setting up a document that will be compatible with exporting to MultiMarkdown.

I’ve been taking a look at Scrivener again of late — I waver back and forth about using it for my next book, but I’m leaning toward it at the moment.

(In case you don’t know, Fletcher is the one who expanded on John Gruber’s Markdown by creating the spiffy MultiMarkdown. Thanks Fletcher!)

Before the Web

“Anyone who slaps a ‘this page is best viewed with Browser X’ label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network.”

— Tim Berners-Lee
