Org-babel does a magic thing where you get to edit and view your source code blocks in their native modes. Wow!
I also happen to use markdown-mode to write blog articles. How hard, on a scale from "read the source and figure it out" to "org-babel already has the hooks; you can do it in 5 minutes," would it be to integrate the org-babel stuff with markdown? Seems like this trick would be extremely useful for quite a few modes (RestructuredText, anyone?) Thanks, -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
