I wrote it, and I don't use it that much. I do use it for quick notes-to-self when writing, but footnotes do the job just as well. > I'm hoping to embark on a book project with a colleague.

I do a lot of manuscript editing, and passing files around, and have only barely gotten some people to accept my "weird" workflow, which is to send them a clean version of an edited file, and along with that an HTML file containing htmlized word-diff output, where the insertions and deletions are colorized. They make further edits on the clean copy, and I do another go-around. It's a huge pain. > My colleague is familiar with markdown but for major projects has only > ever used word.
