Markup is a general purpose HTML utility. It currently has two major functions, but I plan to add more in future releases. Markup has two modules: HTML and Color. The HTML module is a simple HTML character escaping utility. Since characters like , and & are part of the HTML specification, they should be replaced with their escaped versions to guarantee that they show up in all browsers. The HTML module takes text and replaces all occurrences of , and & with < > and & respectively. This is very useful for writing tutorials in HTML that contain html example code. The HTML module also has the option of replacing all characters, which will replace all characters with their escaped values. This could be used to obfuscate an email address so that a spambot would not pick it up.
The color module allows the user to select a color from RGB Sliders or via the Mac OS color picker and converts it into a hexadecimal value for use in HTML or CSS. It also contains a list of all of the acceptable named html colors. So instead of typing in #000000 for black, a user could just type in black. The color module lists all of the color names that are accepted by recent browsers. The list is searchable and offers a preview of the color. The Color module also offers a unique Auto Copy feature that automatically copies the Hex value (or name) of the current color to the clipboard to save time.
Features:
Escape , and & characters in text
Escape all characters in text
Generate hex color representations from RGB values
Generate hex color representations from color picker values
Display named HTML colors and display their hex values
Display the color (and name if it exists) for an HTML hex value
Automatically copy hex values or color names (if they exist) to the clipboard
