    When he's not working behind the scenes at AOL to make sites like Engadget, TUAW and Joystiq look great, Brett Terpstra spends his time writing books and developing amazing apps. Today Brett announced the availability of Marked 2 (US$11.99), the latest iteration of his Markdown preview application for OS X. To start with, here's what Marked is all about: if you use a text editor to write formatted documents in Markdown, Marked provides a real-time preview of how that formatting will look once your document is posted online or printed. The original version of the app is still supported and available on the App Store for $3.99, but longtime users of Marked will definitely want to point themselves in the direction of the Marked 2 website and get the new version with all of its many features: Built-in MultiMarkdown 4.2, including in-line footnotes Support for Fountain and CriticMarkup Improved search features, including case-sensitive and whole-word options Live highlighting of common or overused phrases Additional export file types, including DOC, DOCX, ODT, RTF, RTFD with included images, and paginated PDF The full feature set is included in the PR blast below.
