I am currently moving some content from Dokuwiki (dokuwiki [DokuWiki]) to Discourse. The Dokuwiki syntax is not clean markdown, therefore it needs manual editing. I normally use the old editor as I can see all characters there. But with the old editor I see strange “jumping effects”: when you mark a text block and try to format it, the cursor jumps up and down. Re-formatting of longer text is nearly impossible that way, as you always have to re-position your editing window again. It is hard to describe this, I could only show it with screencasts … The effect was describe earlier in Cursor jumping around in composer / editor text box
The RTE editor editor does not show this effect. But I am missing an option to clean up junky code imported from other systems …
