</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/">http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/</a> is the official version of all things Markdown syntax.<br></div><div><br></div><div>But when it comes down to it, there are two apps I find indispensable for writing Markdown:</div>
<div><br></div><div>1) MultiMarkdown Composer - <a href="http://multimarkdown.com/download/">http://multimarkdown.com/download/</a></div><div><br></div><div>2) Marked 2 - <a href="http://marked2app.com">http://marked2app.com</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>The first is an editor with built-in preview which can either show you instant format using "strict" Markdown _or_ in the very popular "MultiMarkdown" variant. Really handy because it will immediately show you how things will look when formatted.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The second is a preview tool which will work with almost any text editor (plus things like Scrivener and MarsEdit). It's a separate app that you use with apps that don't have their own previewer built in. _AND_ the developer (Brett Terpstra) is also a recent MailMate conver--err "user" :-)</div>
<div><br></div><div>I like both of them. Both of have free trials available. </div><div><span style="white-space:pre"><br></span></div><div><span style="white-space:pre">TjL</span></div><div><span style="white-space:pre"><br>
