Bug ID: 484850
Summary: Feature request: Options for markdown insertion
characters
Classification: Applications
Product: ghostwriter
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: megan.con...@kdemail.net
Reporter: benjf5+...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
The current implementation in
`InlineMarkupTogglePrivate::InlineMarkupTogglePrivate()` only supports the
asterisk for formatting marks inserted using Ctrl+I and Ctrl+B. For my personal
style, I prefer using a single underscore for italics and a double asterisk for
bold; that way the different formatting styles are visually distinct. This is a
feature in Zettlr, which was useful when I tried it. I don't know if a link is
going to work here, but I can provide one if needed.
I think it'd be really cool if there were an option to set these both
independently; something in the preferences dialog that lets you pick:
Emphasis (italics) markup character: `(•) * ( ) _`
Strong (bold) markup sequence: `(•) ** ( ) __`
And then the markup toggle can pull from that setting to determine the correct
character to use.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 2.1.6
Qt Version: 5.15.2
(I include the version here, but I'm reading the current development sources
and seeing no change.)
