Damian Conway… a name to conjure with.

What are the advantages of the Podlite design?




It's extensible and not tied to any specific programming language, allowing for constructs like this ( mix chunks of markdown and build TOC ):

---

=toc head1, head2, head3

=begin markdown

  # header from markdown
  ## second level
  
 =end markdown
 
 =head1 This is header from Podlite 
---

That's an interesting feature. What is its advantage, i.e. how and when is it useful?


I agree with you on this. It's a cool feature.

What I find most interesting is that there’s no need to choose between Podlite and Markdown; you can use both and switch between them as needed.

I think Podlite could be really useful in document management systems and electronic publishing. But... let's see what practical uses Podlite will find.

thank you
