A myriad of markup systems
A myriad of markup systems
04/12/2004 11:15 PMIt's hard to avoid the legions of custom markup systems out there
these days. Every Wiki has it's own syntactical quirks, while packages
like Markdown, Textile, BBCode (in
dozens of variants), reStructuredText
offer easy ways of hooking markup conversion in to existing
applications. When it comes to being totally over-implemented and
infuratingly inconsistent, markup systems are rapidly catching up with
template packages. Never one to miss out on an opportunity to reinvent
the wheel, I've worked on several of each ;)
My most recent markup handling attempt has just been published as
part of my SitePoint article on
Bookmarklets (cl
iché). It's a structured markup language in a bookmarklet:
activate the bookmarklet to convert the text in any textarea on a page
to XHTML. The syntax is ridiculously simple, and
serves my limited needs just fine:
= This is a header
Here is a paragraph.
* This is a list of items
* Another item in the list
Converts to:
<h4>This is a header</h4>
<p>Here is a paragraph.</p>
<ul>
<li>This is a list of items</li>
<li>Another item in the list</li>
</ul>
The algorithm is simple, and easily portable to any language you
care to mention:
- Normalise newlines to \n, for cross-platform consistency.
- Split the text up on double newlines, to create a list of
blocks.
- For each block:
- If it starts with an equals sign, wrap it in header tags.
- If it starts with an asterisk, split it in to lines, make each a
list item (stripping off the asterisk at the start of the line if
required) and glue them all together inside a
<ul>.
- Otherwise, wrap it in a
<p> tag
provided it doesn't have one already.
- Glue everything back together again with a couple of newlines, to
make the underlying XHTML look pretty.
The bookmarklet comes in two flavours: Expand HTML
Shorthand (the full version) and Expand HTML Shorthand
IE, which loses header support in order to fit within IE's rippling 508 character limit.
A more capable bookmarklet could be built using the import-script-stub
method described in my
article, but the implementation of such a thing is left as an
exercise for the reader (I've always wanted to say that).
Incidentally, there's a very common bug in markup systems that
allow inline styles that proves extremely difficult to fix: that of
improperly nested tags. Say you have a system where
*text* is bold and _text_ is italic; what
happens when the user enters
_italic*italic-bold_bold*? Most systems (and that includes Markdown, Textile and my
home-rolled Python solution) use naive regular expressions for inline
markup processing and will output vadly formed XHTML: <em>italic<strong>italic-bold</em>bold
</strong>. To truly solve this problem requires a
context-sensitive parser, which involves an unpleasantly large amount
of effort to solve what looks like a simple bug.

Hybrid Financial Analysis
Hybrid Financial Analysis
06/05/2005 11:47 PMCost savings may not offset higher price for hybrids:
Gas-electric hybrids are expensive, but you get all that money back in
gas savings, right? Well, probably not.
The study, the latest on break-even points of hybrid cars, shows
that in most cases, an owner would have to drive a hybrid tens of
thousands of extra miles a year or gasoline would have to hit
stratospheric levels to reach a break-even point with a comparable
gas-powered model.
[...] When compared with the smaller, gas-thrifty conventional
Corolla, the Prius wouldn't equal the five-year costs unless it were
driven 66,500 miles a year or gas reached $10.10 a gallon.
Depressing. But the prices will come down, I'm sure.
Hybrid Solar Lighting
Hybrid Solar Lighting
03/14/2005 06:02 PM
Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which conducts all of its
research in tuneful four part harmony, has developed a system that
uses sunlight (I actually started to write 'solar-powered light')
pumped down fiber-optic tubes to complement an integrated system of
flourscent bulbs. When there's sufficient light outside, a sensor cuts
the electric blubs, letting the light shine in. Obviously, piping
light from roofs to fixtures is something that's best done when the
buildings are actually built, but it's a great idea all the same.
Of course, they don't mention that the light snakes down around
your throat as you sit in satori, attempting to harness the power of
mind to expand your forehead real estate. (Thanks, Boo Boo

Tow Truck Drivers Push Cars into
Tow-Away Zone then hold cars for ransom
03/22/2005 04:59 PMMark Frauenfelder:
Tian says: "On March 7th, I took
photos of a tow truck driver that damages a vehicle then tries
to get away in Phoenix.
Sunday night (March 20th), Phoenix news channel 15 used a bait car
and discovered that local tow truck company(s) would actually push
cars into tow-away zone first, then held the cars as "hostages" for
ransom."
I just watched it. The TV crew set up a white SUV as a bait car,
and parked it legally. Time and time again, tow trucks would push the
car into a red zone, snap a photo, and tow it away. Of course, when
the TV crew showed the owner of the tow truck company how his drivers
had pushed the car into the red lane, the owner denied responsibility.
"I didn't push it," he said.
Arizona lawmakers have been half-heartedly writing legislation to
stop this (isn't it illegal to do this already) but the tow truck has
so far been able to convince them not to ruin the good thing they've
got going.

Jeon–Slaughter, Andrew A. Herkovic, and Michael A.
Kellerhtt
p://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue10_3/jeon/index.htmlAbstract:The emergence of e–journals
brought a great change in scholarly communication and in the behavior
of scholars. However, the importance of scholars’ behavior in the
pricing of scientific journal has been largely ignored in the recent
debate between libraries and publishers over site license practices
and pricing schemes. Stanford’s survey results indicate that sharply
increasing costs are the main reason for individual subscription
cancellation, driving users to rely on library or other institutional
subscriptions. Libraries continue to be a vital information provider
in the electronic era and their bargaining power in the market and the
importance of roles in scholarly communication will be increased by
branding and a strong relationship with users. Publishers’ strategy
for thriving in the electronic era is not to lose personal
subscribers. Cooperation among the three sectors — scholars,
libraries, and publishers — promises optimal results for each sector
more than ever.

Lessons learned from online journals
Lessons learned from online journals
10/29/2003 12:10 AMThere are lessons to be learned from the first round of online
journals, hammered out over time in the private spheres of close
friends and associates. Many from that time have moved on to other
things, but their legacy remains at the core of blogging's
foundations. Write for an audience of friends. When you have an
audience of a million people, there's no way to anticipate what the
best viewpoint to reach them all is; remember that your writing is an
expression of your viewpoint, and express it as such. Express your
viewpoint as if you were talking to a group of friends: clear, to the
point, and perhaps a dash of humor. Aesthetics speak a thousand words.
The appearance of a site frames the content contained within, setting
the tone for the reader. If your color schemes makes it...

Scientists launch open-access journals
Scientists launch open-access journals
03/13/2003 10:16 AM A group of scientists
launched an open-access
scientific journals project: the Public Library of
Science . Supported by a $9 million grant from the Moore Foundation , the two journals,
Public Library of Science Biology and Public Library of
Science Medicine , are planned to appear in 2003.
The thinking behind the project is the argument that scientific
research is a public good, and should be accessible to all , in the interests of education and informed
public debate. The project participates in a larger movement of open-access scholarly journals , and:
is an outgrowth of several years of friction between scientists and
the journals over who should control access to scientific literature
in the electronic age. For most scientists, who typically assign their
copyright to the journals for no compensation, the main goal is to
distribute their work as widely as possible.
