What is MD File Format?
MD, or Markdown, is a lightweight markup language commonly used for formatting plain text documents. It was created by John Gruber in 2004 with the goal of allowing writers to focus on content without the distractions of complex formatting. Markdown uses simple and intuitive syntax that can be easily converted into HTML or other document formats.
In Markdown, you can apply formatting to text by using a combination of special characters and plain text. For example, you can use asterisks or underscores to create italic or bold text, hashtags to create headings, and hyphens or asterisks to create lists. Markdown also supports adding links, images, code snippets, and tables.
One of the advantages of Markdown is its readability in its raw form, as it closely resembles plain text. It can be written in any text editor and easily converted into HTML or other formats using various tools and converters. Markdown files have the .md or .markdown file extension.
Markdown is widely used for writing documentation, creating blog posts, and even in version control systems like Git. Its simplicity and versatility have made it a popular choice among writers, developers, and content creators for creating structured and well-formatted documents with minimal effort.
What is TXT File Format?
A TXT (text) file is indeed a plain text file format used for storing and exchanging text-based information without any formatting or layout. It is a simple and widely supported file format that consists of a sequence of characters without any specific structure or metadata.
TXT files are commonly used for various purposes, such as creating and sharing documents, taking notes, writing memos, and storing configuration and log files. They are particularly useful for storing data that can be easily read and processed by computers or software programs, as they contain unformatted text.
One of the advantages of TXT files is their universal accessibility. They are supported by virtually all operating systems and applications, making them easy to open and view on different platforms. TXT files can be created and edited using any text editor, ranging from basic options like Notepad to more advanced ones like Sublime Text or Vim.
Due to their simplicity, TXT files have small file sizes compared to other file formats that include formatting or embedded objects like images or tables. This makes TXT files efficient for exchanging large amounts of text-based data, such as email messages or code snippets.
