What is Mark My Words?

Mark My Words

Mark My Words is a handy tool for anyone who works with programming and documentation. It helps you keep track of changes in markdown files, which is pretty cool! So, if you're into creating rich text files from plain text, this app is definitely worth checking out.

What Is Markdown?

Markdown is a simple way to format your text. With Mark My Words, you can easily see how your markdown files change over time. This app gives you an almost real-time preview of updates.

Before You Start

Before diving in, make sure you have the .NET Framework on your computer. Most modern Windows systems already have it, so you’re probably good to go!

How It Works

The main job of Mark My Words is to keep an eye on a specific markdown file, and it can do that really well! Just remember that it mainly works with MK files but can also handle TXT and RTF formats.

A Little Quirk

You’ll need to use the browse dialog to load your file because dragging it into the app won’t work. A little annoying, right? Also, you can only watch one file at a time unless you open multiple instances of the application for more flexibility.

Viewing Changes

Your content will show up in a special area where you can copy text but not edit it directly. If you want to make changes, you'll need to use another tool for that. The refresh rate is super quick at half a second! Just remember: for Mark My Words to read any changes, your target file has to be saved in the editor.

The Bottom Line

To wrap things up, Mark My Words is lightweight and makes viewing changes in markdown files easy-peasy! While there’s no alert system or highlighted changes to signal updates, its quick refresh rate makes it worth considering if you're managing content regularly.
