Version: 1.0, requires Writemonkey 2.7.0.2 RC2 or higher
Release date: October 20th 2014 Author: Josip
Description:
Offers live preview and template picker for your markdown,
textile or wiki texts.
Installation:
Unzip the "Preview" directory into the plugins
directory.
Deployment:
This plugin is initialized at start-up. Use ALT+Y to toggle
visibility.
How it works:
Preview plugin parses your Markdown texts in real time and
shows you formatted (html) version of your document.
Preview window will update every time you hit Enter or save (ctrl+s) your document.
There are two view modes: the default uses current writemonkey color scheme - everything renders in dimmed color. If you prefer text color instead, change this in *_config.incl* file. Double click the edge of the preview window to switch to the normal view - you'll get colors defined in the template, usually normal black on white. Normal view also shows scroll bars so you can navigate preview window independently.
You can access Print menu (and some other options) by right clicking the preview window. Always print from normal view, otherwise wm scheme will be used.
Use CTRL + Mouse Wheel or CTRL + plus or minus key to adjust zoom factor. This will be remembered till the end of current wm session, but preview will always start with 100% zoom.
Change template by clicking current name at the bottom of the preview window. The menu gives you all installed templates.
Preview plugin uses the same setting as regular writemonkey export tools, for example - changing template in preview will affect regular export tools and vice versa.
TIP: If you are using two monitors, drag preview window on your secondary monitor and leave it there always opened.
Each installed language needs 3 files in the wm/dictionaries folder. Those 3 files must have the same base name.
Spell checker needs two files:
Thesaurus needs one file:
Thesaurus file is optional as not all language packs include thesaurus definitions.
Old dic files won't work with Writemonkey 2.7!
If dictionary for your language is not available on Writemonkey's web site, you can get it from one of the following addresses:
Dictionaries are distributed as Open Office Extension (.OXT). In fact the Open Office extension files are Zip files. To get the dictionaries you must download, rename to .zip and open that renamed file. You'll find dic, aff and dat files in there.
The Mozilla add-ons (.XPI) are are also Zip files. The same procedure as for OO dictionaries applies.
