Using AsciiDoc for Documentation

[Chris Good]

Hi devs,

I've been following this discussion and had a look at the asciidoc website.
I could use asciidoc but unless there is a wysiwyg editor available on Linux or Windows (I don't have a Mac), I cannot see any advantage. I currently use jEdit with xml plugin and another plugin I cannot currently remember the name of, which draws nice vertical lines to show matching start/end tags.

Occasionally I get stuck for a while with docbook syntax, but I'm getting ok at it now.
I agree that it must be difficult, if not impossible, for non programmers to use.
However, if they write text and put it in a bug, I'm happy to put it into the documentation as time permits.

Regards,

Chris Good
