I tested LMW a while back. IMHO, two features are preventing wider adoption:

- no clear distinction between content and program controls, mainly in the left pane;
- Dokuwiki's editing syntax feels overly complicated.

To avoid this, I would move all program controls to a single (floatable?) toolbar and make editing Markdown based (viewtopic.php?t=24289). Other than that, I think LMW is a great program. 8)

Two examples from some of the most common types of formatting:
DokuWikiMarkdown
//italics//

_italics_

BTW, are you aware of WikiCreole? (http://www.wikicreole.org/)

Hi, Midas.

Thank you for your contribution. I understand you're saying.

At first I used the Dokuwiki syntax because I was a DokuWikiStick user (I needed to use a local and portable Wiki system and without complications). But it was quite slow to edit pages (not very agile).

The development of LMW was not very planned. I was in a hurry, I needed the tool for my job. So, it was designing it while providing it with functionalities. :roll:

I find it very interesting to use markdown syntax, in fact I have used it for a while. It's simpler and clearer. I will think about the possibility of migrating.

About WikiCreole, it looks a lot like DokuWiki so...

I will continue to work on these ideas
Thanks

Hey, I totally get that and I'm glad you decided to release it as a freeware. Thanks for that. 8)

Great! I'll be eagerly watching. :)

BTW, as I've mentioned elsewhere, I use a note taker on my mobile that features very well developed Markdown capabilities and, although coming from a totally different platform, it might give you some ideas, should you decide to try it -- it's a tiny bit of FLOSS called Diary (https://github.com/billthefarmer/diary).

That's the reason I pointed it out. I'm crazy about standards. :mrgreen:
