Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] Trac with Markdown

[Yuri T. <qar...@gm...>]

It doesn't seem that ugly, once I managed to parse it. :)

A question though: this being a "plugin" means that all Markdown formatting
would need to be surrounded by {{{...}}}, right?  Is there a way of avoiding
this?

Judging by http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/615, I am guessing that there
isn't any blessed solution.  But one would think that there should be a way
to hack it to default to Markdown?
