Subject: [Mediacloth-talk] Using mediacloth with rassmalog blogging software
Message-ID: <20080521180502.19357159@pen2.homeunix.net>

Hi!

I send this message to both mediacloth-talk and mediacloth-devel
because it both is about using and developing MediaCloth.

I am a new user of MediaCloth. I have been using Rassmalog[1] for my
blog[2] for more than a year now. Per default this program uses the
RedCloth[3] implementation of Textile[4].

Last weekend I modified my copy of rassmalog (more precisely
config/format.rb[5] that does the actual 'clothing') to use MediaCloth
in place of RedCloth (which was ridiculously simple; the hard part was
converting all Blog entries to the new format).

What I miss a lot is one feature the original MediaWiki has:
controlling table cell formats. I sometimes use tables where it is
crucial that I can control the background colour of cells (for
highlighting them). I currently use <nowiki> and plain HTML in these
cases.
