MarkShow: a modern dialect of MarkDown

Let's see...

No HTML allowed - ok - I just don't buy the explanation. A better way to sell it would be "A 100% secure Markdown clone you can use on the web with no questions asked, no HTML injection possible because no HTML is possible."

When I see a Markdown clone I expect to see some new features: modularity and extendability, a well-defined grammar or translation process (if that's even possible without sacrificing usability, simplicity, or performance), perhaps being exceptionally fast. And I keep looking, because the world needs a better Markdown. Unfortunately, a feature removed from Markdown and a few others slapped on top of it is not enough to make me try it. So I wish you good luck with your project and hope that it evolves beyond that.

What's extra over standard Markdown? I haven't seen the headers with IDs before, so that's probably new, but everything else there seems standard.

Spelling...

i think it's possible to build something like this which is better than this, but maybe that's because i have built something like this which i believe is better than this, so, you know, maybe i am biased... :+)
