If you write on the web, you must have come across the awesome Markdown:

a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).

You can learn more about it from the official documentation.

There are many editors that allow you to write in Markdown but, as I found, most of them require a license. Besides, wouldn’t it be great that your own editor would have a Markdown support? That’s why I love Sublime Text, it has a plugin for everything. Well, ok, it doesn’t have a plugin to throw out sandwiches from your computer, but I guess it will be able to in the not so distant future. 

Ok, jokes and wishes aside, let see how to set up live Markdown preview on Windows with Sublime Text and Markmon plugin.

Install Markmon:

npm install -g markmon

Install pandoc.

Install Markmon Sublime Text plugin through its Package Control (search for “Markmon”).

Make sure you have markmon and pandoc in your PATH variable.

Run markmon in the folder where is your .md file, like this:

markmon myMDfile.md

open up your browser at localhost:3000.

Write on!

My notes from the bestseller book Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife by Dr. Eben Alexander, which I rated  4/5 on my Shelfari account:

A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks it should be. ~ Albert Einstein

There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true. The other is to refuse to believe what is true. ~Soren Kierkegaard

If yo would be a real seeker after truth it is necessary that, at least once in your life, you doubt as far as possible all things. ~ Rene Descartes

If tomorrow starts without me – David Romano

My notes from the bestseller book The ONE Thing by Gary Keller, which I marked as favorite and rated 5/5 on my Shelfari account:

Pam Rose – My life

Go small by ignoring things you could do, and doing things you should do.

To do things at once is to do neither.

Habits are hard to only in the beginning.

Discipline over 66 days equals habit.

Do what mathers most first each morning when your willpower is strongest.

Nothing ever achieved absolute balance. A balanced life is a lie. Time on one thing means time off on another.

When you’re supposed to be working – work. When you’re supposed to be playing – play.

Don’t be afraid to fail! See it as part of your learning process and keep striving for your true potential.

Don’t let small things cut your life down to size. Think big, be bold, aim high and see just how big you can blow up your life.

The key to success is not in all the things that we do, but in the few things that we do well.

Judge a man by his questions, rather than his answers.

Asking questions improves learning and performance by 150%.

What’s the one thing I can do, such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary?

Writing down your goals makes it 35.9% more likely to accomplish them.

Time block your time off, your one thing, and your planning time.

Nobody whoever gave his best regretted it.

Time on a task overtime eventually beats talent every time.

If the people know how hard I had to work to gain my mastery it wouldn’t seem wonderful at all – Michelangelo

Meditate and pray. Eat right. Exercise. Sleep. Hug. Kiss. Love. Set goals. Plan. Timeblock your one thing.

Hang out with people who seek achievements.

20 years from now you’ll be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the things you did to do.
