DownSmith Markdown Editor

Features

• Instantly see Markdown rendered as HTML while you type. Switch between preview and raw HTML, with synchronized scrolling for smooth navigation.
• Search/replace with case sensitivity, whole‑word, wrap‑around, and full RegEx support. Keep the dialog open, jump through matches, and replace one or all occurrences quickly.
• Build Markdown tables visually using a 10×10 grid. Set column alignment, toggle borders, and auto-generate clean Markdown or HTML without manual formatting.
• Drag in images or pick from disk. The editor creates alt text, manages paths (relative or absolute), and can auto-copy images into a project folder for easy organization.
• Automatic backups run on a configurable timer, with recovery prompts after crashes or unexpected closures. Manual backups and last‑saved status are always available.
• Create and edit bullet, numbered, and task lists. Convert list types, nest items, toggle checkboxes, and choose numbering style, all with fast keyboard shortcuts.
• Switch between light and dark instantly (Ctrl+Shift+D). The theme applies consistently across editor, preview, source view, and tools, and can auto‑load on startup.
• Generate a full TOC from H1–H6 headings with clean anchor links. Insert it at the cursor for easy navigation in long documents and README‑style files.
• Apply bold, italic, strikethrough, code, blockquotes, headings, and links with one click or keyboard shortcuts.
• Export to standalone HTML with proper metadata. Preview your document in a browser (Ctrl+Shift+B) using a temporary file with resolved image paths.
• One-click or Ctrl+Alt+F to insert footnote reference and definition tags. Ctrl+Click on either tag to jump to the other one.
• Real-time line/column position, character count, word count, and more.
• Keyboard shortcuts for every major function.
