Rui CarmoMarkdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers, allowing you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid (X)HTML.
Althought I used to prefer Textile for its table support and other niceties, Markdown has won that war and enjoys indisputably wider adoption, as well as making for slightly more readable text when writing essays.
