Enjoy writing fiction in Markdown, and prefer keeping ownership of your files in the filesystem, but still want beautiful ePub3 ebooks and paperback output? Your uncle Matt feels the same way!
I created a configuration and example project for pandoc, the fab #FOSS markup converter, to produce beautiful novels from your folders full of Markdown files. Lots of booky, novel-y, typographical/layout niceness. I'll be using this with #emacs. 💜

in reply to Matt Gemmell • • •There's a modern spec under production, but support for hardware lags heavily due to the low volumes of production and ridiculous price point of Braille equipment to the general consumer.
Pandoc is already in use within the Braille community. Some sort of Braille output added to your cool tool would be an excellent interim step for us, I think.
