and anyway bbcode is hardly ever used, except for quote (and code quite alot on this forum)
Maybe doing italics and bold emphasis with BBCode takes too long for people to bother?
I vote for a Textile and/or Markdown and BBCode option.
agreed. The [brackets] should be left out of inline text editing - and writing content especially. 
Yippie! Hopefully PunBB forum members will come around by the time Dean does... JK!
Ahh... well, since Dean has already done it (ASCII conversions)... it won't be hard at all! (me thinks... guess if it was that easy, I would have been able to do it!) sorry, maybe not so easy.
Thanks. I've also emailed Dean some weeks back... no response yet... 
No other takers, huh?
Yes, it's a function library. BTW, Dean, the creator of textile, already is using your punBB in one of the best forums I've ever experienced. And textile is used instead of BBCode *blah*. I have no idea what the license is for using the library, but I know there is an MT plugin.
Again, here is what it does:
Replace single and double primes (' and ") used as quotation marks with HTML entities for opening and closing quotation marks (?? and ??) in readable text, while leaving untouched the primes required within HTML tags.
Replace double hyphens (--) with an em-dash (?) entity.
Replace single hyphens surrounded by spaces with an en-dash (?) entity.
Replace triplets of periods (...) with an ellipsis (?) entity.
Convert many nonstandard characters (?úß???) to browser-safe entities corresponding to keyboard input.
Apply block- and phrase-level structural tags automatically and at the discretion of the writer via quick tags.
Allow the quick creation of simple and complex tables
Allow the simple application of style, class, id, language and alignment attributes to elements
Create hyperlinks and insert images via quick tags.
Define acronyms via quick tags
Wrap an <acronym> tag around runs of three or more capital letters automatically.
Convert (TM), (R), and (C) to ?, ®, and ©
Convert the letter x to a dimension sign: 2x4 to 2×4 and 8 x 10 to 8×10
but, but, but... anyone else? *wimper* (note: *wimper* is wimper with textile, try typing it once, and see how fast, smooth, intuitive it is... )
oh well. anyone else interested?
okay, sorry, maybe not 4 u.
But for those who code regularly, typing _this_ to make this and *that* to make that saves keystrokes. not to mention !/images/this_image.png!:http://thisimage_link.html making a linked image, or !/images/this_image.png(this is an image)!:http://thisimage_link.html making a linked image with alt text. Or, styling, positioning, coding, etc.

For punbb, it can be used in the forum like here. Probably should've asked there first.
Try again, then.

thanks,
