md (markdown) files from two or three years ago, but in most cases the pattern until recently has been pretty clear: use those ‘primitive’ formats to do some initial work and note-jotting but, once the serious work begins, copy the whole thing into something like Word. txt files to be honest, my conversion wasn’t an overnight thing – yes, I can find plain text back as far as I have files, and even. Now, simply saying these things isn’t enough to make everyone (or anyone) suddenly slap their forehead and switch to plain.
Lately, I’ve had (or created) several opportunities to talk about using plain text file (and markdown syntax) – how great I think it is for writing and (more importantly, really) how perfect it is for making sure your stuff remains ubiquitously compatible and futureproof.
