Some of the things I implemented are probably better left to voluntary nodelet hack apps. I don't think choroba or Discipulus use `/_` for emphasizing . (ask them?) The casual user would rather prefer to select text and to click on a button. > And I'm probably the only one using this quote style with an > at the beginning of a line.* But auto paragraphs and auto linking of internal and external http://address.es plus Mo::dul::es is fun. Anyway, leaving it to a JS feature which can be individually activated and configured shouldn't be an issue in 2020. edit Especially as JS could also allow to preview in real time.

I frequently use asterisks for emphasizing, rarely slashes. I've never used underscore. `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l]

> I have written code that does this: markdown-ish auto-formatting inside/beside putative HTML I hope it's clear that this is what I implemented. OnSubmit is JS creating new HTML-tags beside old ones. OnLoad is JS purging the new tags from the textarea again, such that only the old ones are visible. Just trying it out may be the simplest explanation. --> Wikisyntax for the Monastery Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery FootballPerl is like chess, only without the dice}	[reply]

"The biggest impediment for me to hacking on PM as-is is that I can’t just download and build a local copy.." Why is that not possible?	[reply]

I don't believe anyone has created or maintains a downloadable container one could use to achieve this. See https://github.com/metacpan/metacpan-docker.	[reply]
