- Description
- An MD file is a text file created using one of several possible dialects of the Markdown language. It is saved in plain text format but includes inline text symbols that define how to format the text (e.g., bold, indentations, headers, table formatting). MD files are designed for authoring plain text documentation that can be easily converted to HTML.
- Emacs Muse is a lightweight markup language and authoring tool for Emacs, used to write structured documents that can be published to formats like HTML, LaTeX, and PDF. The .muse extension denotes a plain text file written in this markup syntax.
