Markdown Cheat Sheet

I was looking for a online Markdown Cheat Sheet today and found only Cheat Sheets with to much noise and disturbing elements. So here is my plain collection based on the build in Cheat Sheet of TextMate.

Phrase Emphasis

*italic* **bold**
_italic_ __bold__

Links

Inline:

An [example](http://url.com/ "Title")

Reference-style labels (titles are optional):

An [example][id].Then, anywhere  
else in the doc, define the link: 

[id]: http://example.com/ "Title"

Images

Inline (titles are optional):

![alt text](/path/img.jpg "Title") 

Reference-style:


![alt text][id]

[id]: /url/to/img.jpg "Title"

Headers

Setext-style:


  Header 1
  ========
  Header 2
  --------

atx-style (closing #’s are optional):


  # Header 1 #
  ## Header 2 ##
  ###### Header 6

Lists

Ordered, without paragraphs:


1. Foo
2. Bar

Unordered, with paragraphs:


* A list item.  
With multiple paragraphs.
* Bar 

You can nest them:


    * Abacus
      * answer
    * Bubbles
      1. bunk
      2. bupkis
      * BELITTLER
    3. burper
    * Cunning

Blockquotes

> Email-style angle brackets
> are used for blockquotes.

> > And, they can be nested.

> #### Headers in blockquotes
> 
> * You can quote a list.
> * Etc.

Code Spans

`<code>` spans are delimited
by backticks.

You can include literal backticks
like `` `this` ``.

Preformatted Code Blocks

Indent every line of a code block by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab.

This is a normal paragraph.

    This is a preformatted
    code block.

Note, if you have a Code Block after a List you have to ad 8 Spaces to get the Code Block. With 4 spaces it get meshed up with the list!

Horizontal Rules

Three or more dashes or asterisks:


---
* * *
- - - -

Manual Line Breaks

End a line with two or more spaces:


old pond . . .   
a frog leaps in   
water’s sound

Escaping Characters

Reserved characters as “_” can be escaped with a “". E.g. to display “_NO_” you should do this:

\_NO\_
