New in DEVONthink 3.7
Markdown is a lightweight but powerful text format that has stepped out of its nerdy neighborhood into the mainstream of the research and information gatherer community. DEVONthink for Mac 3.7 fully embraces Markdown with WYSIWYG editing, file transclusion, and more. While editing Markdown, users will now, e.g., see bold characters embolden, italics italicize, directly in the source. Quotes, code blocks, and links immediately stand out while typing. This includes support for Roam, Obsidian, and iA Writer syntax.
DEVONthink 3.7 also supports transclusion, allowing the display of another Markdown, plain text, or HTML document’s content in a Markdown document. Text blocks can be included dynamically into every document and be edited separately and for all documents at once. In addition, DEVONthink makes certain MultiMarkdown metadata types searchable. They can be used with smart rules, batch processing, and automatic tag assignment.
Many of our users love Markdown — and we know why. It’s small, robust, and human-readable even without rendering it graphically. Our customers use it for clipping data from the web, making notes, or even building their personal wiki with automatic WikiLinking. With this update we bring many long-requested Markdown features to DEVONthink that will make this great format even more useful for our customers.

Among the other changes, the Sorter has new keyboard shortcuts, automatic WikiLinks can also be used in the Annotations inspector, and autocompletion picks square-bracket WikiLinks up in an item’s complete name now. Improved handling and deleting RSS articles makes reading and archiving news feeds more comfortable. The synchronization handles Bonjour timeouts better and the maintenance routines allow for some more valid types of zero-byte (empty) files. Finally, the update brings new AppleScript commands for the automation crowd, including one to automate summarizing document highlights.
The update is free for existing users and highly recommended.
