Hier soir, la dernière épreuve de mon nouveau manuel #Markdown a été validée par les Presses universitaires de Liège.
J'ai donc le plaisir d'annoncer que la version Web de "L’écriture académique au format texte avec Markdown et Pandoc" est dès à présent librement acessible à l'adresse : https://e-publish.uliege.be/md2
La version print sera bientôt disponible sur le site des PUL.

On me suggère (dans l'oreillette) d'ajouter que ce livre a été créé avec une chaîne 100% numérique : rédigé en #Markdown, édité dans #PressBooks et publié dans différents formats ( #print, #pdf, #epub et #Web) grâce à la plateforme https://e-publish.uliege.be de #ULiegeLibrary

Does anybody know a good up to date tutorial about creating an #epub file from scratch, i.e. that explain the organization and content of the metadata files with enough detail?
I times to times I makes websites into ePub to read them and I didn't like the solutions I found so far.

🆕 blog! “Extracting content from an LCP "protected" ePub”
As Cory Doctorow once said "Any time that someone puts a lock on something that belongs to you but won't give you the key, that lock's not there for you."
But here's the thing with the LCP DRM scheme; they do give you the key! As I've written about previously, LCP mostly relies on the user…

I am considering setting up a #socialWeb platform for #writers!
Distinguishing features:
➊ markdown, asciidoc, and possibly a third high-demand input format
➋ fonts!
➌ curation, compilation, and shareable shelves
➍ indices, catalogues, and libraries (advanced structured search)
I want to level up the social web. I want an interface that a library could put on a console for anonymous public use. I want offline and e-ink functionality.
Do you?
#authors #books #journalism #libraries
I think you should be interested if you want to publish #essays, #poetry, #articles, #newsletters, news, and essentially anything that could fit the old #blog paradigm.
One significant difference is that the character limit will be discarded for a pixel limit. A post will be a page. A thread may be downloaded as an #epub.
Code snippets will be a first-class entity for tech lit.
Scientific references will be a first-class entity for science lit.
If you're a writer, you will have what you need.
