  • Silly changes for Markdown.root

    I made a bunch of silly changes tonight to the Markdown.root. Silly because they weren’t necessarily needed. Most have to do with changing what `MarkdownSuite.utils.getPrefs` returns.

I’d never really thought about it before. A little digging found that the DWHP pulls the text of the posts from the `radio.macros.weblogPostForm`…
