Ah markdown language

Yup, Scrivener has it, or rather can work with it.

And a few other apps for the mac have it.

So I got myself a light markdown editor for the mac and IOs machine, and markdown pad for windows (which is free)

As of now I can work with any of my toys and edit the files that live on dropbox.

Oh and the windows one can also print your actual formatted file.

What is best, is that all you need to do this is quite brutally honest any text editor. As long as you know the major code, which is not that much, it takes less time than actually asking the damn thing to format, as in word, et al.

So working on the background for quite the dystopia and have the damn think to the point where I have started draft zero... I am afraid the short will be shorter than any background. But if you are looking for a tool to work across oh many platforms... multi markdown editors if you want to save some time, text edit if you really want to just go ahead and code it... and there you have it.

(And yes, I cannot wait for scrivener to actually finally release the actual program for the ipad.)
