EXT. ANCIENT ROME - DAY
ANTONIUS and IPSUM are walking down a tiny, crowded street.
ANTONIUS
Do you think in a thousand years, anyone will remember our names?
IPSUM
Not yours. But they’ll know mine. Because I intend to write something so profound that it will be remembered for the ages. Designers in the 20th Century call for Lorem Ipsum whenever they need to fill text blocks.
I was wondering by Habari's trac and I saw a very old ticket about http://scrippets.org/ and got interest by the subject. As I got nothing to do by the time, I thought it would be nice to spend some time doing a plugin to Habari.
I am not and screenwriter and neither want to be one, so if you are using this plugin, let me know about problems and/or suggestions you may have.The plugin can be downloaded here.
To add a scrippet, just type your text, beginning with [scrippet] and ending with [/scrippet]. Character names, scene headers and transitions need to be in UPPERCASE. Everything else is done for you.
For the example above, you would write...
[scrippet]

The Scrippets plug-in will do the rest, generating the markup and CSS to make it look good. More information about the Scrippet format can be found at http://scrippets.org/

Hey,
Thanks for the plugin! I was the one who put in the ticket. Now I just need to restart my blogging habits. :)
Thanks again for the plug in!
