MultiMarkdown is a Markdown parser by Fletcher Penney which adds several powerful extensions to the original Markdown specification including tables and footnotes. Drafts includes MultiMarkdown 6. More details about MultiMarkdown syntax and extensions can be found in the user guide. Since MultiMarkdown syntax is not processed inside of metadata, you can use the latex author metadata to override the regular author metadata when exporting to LaTeX. This metadata must come after the regular author metadata if it is also being used. The following markup styles are available on this site. Local IkiWiki markdown page. Local IkiWiki formatting page.

becomes a Scene Heading because of the EXT
, but SNIPER SCOPE POV
requires the period before it to force a Scene Heading element. The period is removed from the formatted output.
Note that only a single leading period followed by an alphanumeric character will force a Scene Heading. This allows the writer to begin Action and Dialogue elements with ellipses without worry that they'll be interpreted as Scene Headings.
Although uppercase is recommended for Scene Headings to increase readability, it is not required. This will still be recognized as a Scene Heading:
A line beginning with any of the following, followed by either a dot or a space, is considered a Scene Heading (unless the line is preceded by an exclamation point !
). Case insensitive.
Multimarkdown Table Syntax
