Updated Moveableype
Thanks to a comment by dvd yesterday, I found out that Movabletype had been updated to 2.6. I backed up my entries (just in case), installed, ran the update script, and all went sweetly. There are some nice improvements, most notably support for text formatting plugins. Brad Choate has already produced one called MT-Textile, which is inspired by an online text processing service written by Dean Allen. It formats block text into paragraphs, headings and lists, does inline text formatting such as emphasis and strong, and converts difficult characters to proper HTML entities. It seems to work very nicely, barring a few minor bugs.
