Somewhere on GitHub is a project that converts MarkDown to/from ODT. I did ask the developer if they would be willing to modify it, so that it could be used as a LibO extension. They declined, on the grounds that that feature would be outside the scope of their project. There used to be an extension that validated Markdown, when creating documents using that presentation markup language. It did _not_ convert MarkDown to/from ODT. I say used to be, because it calls something within LibO that appears to no longer exists. jonathon -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

By the way, please do not send replies to my private e-mail, I am a list member and do not need two copies.

I don't know about any plans for LO to support markdown, but there is a MD editor called retext that will export to ODT files. Not sure if it does everything you need, but may be worth checking out.
