For example if i starts a line mentioning an IRC channel like that:
#channel [...]
this would be presented to the user as an header of level 1 which is
not.
The same would be true if i mention a tag for a social network.
I guess this is just as good an argument as the *emphasised* words
clashing with list items thing. AFAIK it hasn't been spotted in the
wild yet, but that's probably just a function of Geminispace being young
and small.
yes, and probably even less likely to occurs than the emphasis.
As for the list item i think would be a good idea to add a space to
the header mark: so from "#" to "#<space>" and so on for header level
2 and 3.
This would be covered by Petite Abeille's proposal to just put a
mandatory space after *all* the special line indicators.
Is it silly that I'm sad this would require (on account of
### sub-sub-headings) changing "It is possible to unambiguously
determine a line's type purely by inspecting its first three characters"
to "first four characters"? It is silly. But three just feels like a
much more *natural* choice of entirely arbitrary small number...
:) Well i think i can sort of understand, if i would need to choose tochange the sentence above to "It is possible to unambiguouslydetermine a line's type purely by inspecting its first *four*characters", and remove the sentence for inexplicable (even to me)reason i would choose the second! ;-D
Anyway, i am starting writing a parser, it is refreshing (for my mind)the fact that the syntax is so simple and still effective! :)
