Zk | Editing Markdown Extension

tech markdown vimwiki python package

What it does

I want to be able to have editing comments in Markdown, so I came up with some extensions to the syntax. The goal should be for the text to still be at least mostly readable.

• Additions +{new text}
• Deletions -{old text}
• Substitutions ~{old}{new}
• Comments ?{la de da}(comment)
• Resolutions !{-{bad wolf}}(STET)
• Metadata:
  • Comments on all types in parentheses after ~{old}{new}(comment) etc
  • Attribution in parentheses in comment +{new}(comment (Commenter))
  • Date with attribution -{old}(comment (Commenter 2020-04-21))
  • Comment as footnote ?{la de da}(^note) ... (^note): comment
  • Comments can contain markup ?{la de da}(some *markup*)

This is a +{new} addition

This -{this} word is removed

I say, ~{out with the old}{in with the new}

Here !{just a comment} is a line with a comment

You can also ?{add comments to some text}(Like this)

All -{new}(Redundant (Makyo)) edit marks can have comments with attributions and dates +{like this}(See? (Makyo 2020-04-22)) (though it's ignored with comments !{like this}(won't show))
