What exactly is there to "fear"?
That you would propose a not what You See Is What You Get editor, and one that coders love as vim. Terrible idea. Now, if you would propose
You can use both. WYSIWYG editor in the browser at least (probably there are also offline Markdown editors, I never needed one so have not checked this out) and any plain text editor. It does not need to be vim. NOTEPAD.EXE will do just fine, too ;-)
LyX, that would be acceptable.
Sorry, I can not contribute documentation that way.
So a Web-only WYSIWIG editor is fine with the wiki, but not with github? OK.
No, I said editors like vi or (puagh) notepad are "no way". WYSIWIG on line I do not like but I can work with, sometimes.
But the *availability* of editors does not harm you. So I don't understand why you object the possibility of using an editor instead of an web browser.
No, I object to the idea that I could find enticing the idea of editing plain text with tokens to produce formatting. I find that kind of editing disgusting. I can understand a coder finds that kind of producing formatted text attractive, but a writer does not. You people are happy with vi. The coder type of people. None mentioned editors like LibreOffice writer. That you don't is indicative of a mindset. The closer I can get is LyX, which is related to latex, also a markup editor. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
