Last month I wrote a lengthy Beginner's Guide to Markdown post, and a few weeks ago I posted Muxxy's Toolkit, the first part of which featured various sites that make it a little easier to format your posts with markdown.
Today I want to introduce you to another tool I have discovered called HastyMarkup. Its creator is 
What is it?
HastyMarkup is a Windows app that you download from HERE. Once you have installed it, click the post button on Steemit, Busy or any other front end. Next, fire up HastyMarkup. You will be presented with a toolbox like this:
This toolbox can be moved anywhere on your desktop, just click and drag along the top edge where you see the picture. It sits on top of everything else on your screen.
In addition to the regular formatting options, HastyMarkup includes options for saving snippets.
In this picture, I have already saved my regular footer code into snippets, so next time I write a post, I simply need to select it and then click the clipboard icon to insert it.
Dividers contains 6 options for inserting a page divider, as well as the option to add your own by clicking the little gear icon to the right. I inserted a bundled page divider here.
The way I use HastyMarkup during testing is to have it sitting to the right of the post window in the white space, like this:
That way it doesn't obscure what I am typing and I always have access to it. Just remember to highlight the text you want to format first, otherwise it will insert the code and you will have to go in and type inside the >< brackets.
I hope you found this useful and encourage you to visit
