First -- whatever tool works best for you is what you should use.

That said, every release of Composer has the latest version of MMD. 
Most other programs that say they use MMD are using versions of MMD that 
are years, sometimes even 5+ years, out of date. Which means they don't 
get the new features and bug fixes that I release.

So eventually, the behavior of MMD in the other apps should fall in line 
with Composer at some point.

There is no "strict MMD". There is "strict Markdown" and there is 
"MultiMarkdown." If you turned off MMD, then many features are 
disabled. So it's no wonder you were having trouble.... ;)

As of when I last checked, there surprisingly did not seem to be a 
straightforward way to change the mouse pointer color. You can readily 
change the insertion point (cursor) color in themes (most of mine do), 
but not the mouse color. I'll see if Apple has improved this lately, 
but a quick Google search suggests not.

hi 
I know that you’re the guy to whom we owe a debt for getting mathematics into Markdown, so I can’t quibble with your stating the rules. It really changed everything for scientists like me, and mathematicians.

I think that in the end, I had the strict MMD rules button selected on this one computer that was much more unhappy than the other two. What I’ve done however, is the following, after fixing this… I’m now rendering in Marked2. While the mathematics is probably fixable in MC, I have many full-width figures in my chapters and the source-preview synchronization in MMC is often frustrated. I know you’ve got a clever algorithmic approach to tethering the preview to the source, but I think my use case is extreme. For some reason, Marked2 seems to handle this and I can see rendering side by side with little or no adjustment, so this works for me.

Of course, I’m not done with questions. I like a particular dark theme TextMate setup that I use and I’ve replicated that as a theme in your setup. However, with the dark background the cursor is really hard to find. Is there any way to adjust the cursor…both in its wandering-around state with the mouse as well as the vertical line, insert-point in text?

Thanks for sticking with me. As I presume you know, I happily purchased MC pro almost as soon as it came out and it’s my choice for long-form writing in markdown.
