This is a terrific post. It answers some of the questions I have had with setting / resetting CSS in my DT markdown notes.
Here’s hoping this leads to a more robust, and more flexible, implementation of markdown within DT. (I would particularly appreciate the ability to choose a style sheet to use: styles for viewing, printing, writing can be different. DT’s “you get one” seems a little limited when faced with Typora’s “whatever you want.”
I’m not crazy about markdown, but it has two advantages over rich text: smaller file sizes (which become less important as the years go by) but also semantic styles. It pains me, pains me, that the styles in rich text are only named for the convenience of the user and are not embedded in the document itself such that if I change the style it cascades throughout the document.
