Quill: Initial Public Release

Quill, my blog/wiki text markup language project, has just reached it's first milestone - Initial Public Release!

Quill has been used to drive this blog since it came back to life at the beginning of this month, and the test cases of real data / real usage have been great for finding the edge cases and refining the language itself.

The IPR gives you a Ruby implementation that expects to filter STDIN, a format plugin for Nanoblogger which is being used to generate this blog, and a Trac plugin which is used in the project wiki/bug tracker.

Feel free to download and play with/use this code, bug reports are welcome on the Trac wiki as is feedback direct to my email address, jim(@)inode.co.nz

Dude, where's my Gmail IMAP?

You want Google Mail IMAP? You have to speak English(US). Change your settings (from English(UK) for me) and the option will appear. Change back … and it'll vanish. I haven't tried to see if the vanishing settings also cuts off your usage of IMAP …

Thanks to Ben Kepes for being the first blogger I saw that mentioned this enabling trick.
