Plain text formats have received increasing attention from scholars in recent years and have been described as among the best ways to store knowledge persistently. This workshop will introduce you to the benefits of using plain text files and simple markup formats to create flexible, robust, and future-proof workflows for digital scholarship, research, and knowledge. We will begin with a brief introduction to the Markdown text format and create a short sample document which with the use of a few simple tools that can be converted into a website, dynamic slideshow presentation, PDF, and even a formatted PhD thesis. We will also cover how to migrate existing \u00ab\u00a0closed\u00a0\u00bb files like Word documents and PowerPoint presentations into more accessible plain text Markdown (or similar formats like Asciidoc), for archival, collaboration, version control, and other purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
