Style guide for txt file documents?
Style guide for txt file documents?
Is there a style guide or convention for documents that exist as pure .txt files? I’m looking for the accepted convention to specify titles & headings, lists & dot points, and so on, but without the bold & italics formatting available in conventional word processors.

Emacs has org-mode. It's similar to markdown, with a ton of extra functionality and the ability to export very nice documents in other formats like LaTeX, HTML, and OpenDocument. When read as plain text it's clear and easy to read.
It'll also act as a personal planner, a TODO list wrangler, format tables with spreadsheet capabilities, and a whole lot more. It's basically Emacs' killer app.
This is a great resource! Thanks!
