Send messages with markdown

Open cubetastic33 opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Is it currently possible to send messages with markdown formatting? Messages sent from other clients that were formatted render properly, but I couldn't figure out how to send formatted messages from here - for example, I tried _foo_, <em>foo</em>, <i>foo<i>, but none of it worked.

The standard Weechat color codes work, besides that *foo* works for emphasis and backticks for inline code.

Ohh that's awesome! But right now we can't use blockquotes, strikethrough, and multiline code? Also, do you have a matrix room for weechat-matrix?

Yeah, that's correct. We need a better input parser that supports multiple lines. At this point it's unlikely that it'll get added to the Python script but a Rust rewrite of the whole thing is currently going on.

The room can be found in the badge in the readme:
