Nope, it suggest to use howm with markdown only, while when using emacs prop-line feature, you can use it with any markup.

artsi0m, is there a reason to use prop-line, when howm already supports org by adding a hook to it?

the reason I'm asking is I've been trying to make org-mode automatically work in howm preview buffer howmC, but it still displays as plain text until I hit RET on the note...

was wondering if you maybe found a way around it via prop-line somehow? I've seen your github, where you mention the "# -- mode: org --", but whether I use that or not in .org files - makes no difference to preview buffer

So, because you disagree with one nitpicky detail, you believe a blog post laying out the history and features and uses of howm is inferior to a landing page which contains nothing but 2 links, which themselves contain nothing useful except perhaps 3 or 4 links deep there might finally be something which explains to a HNer what howm is and why they might ever care about it? Nope.

Sorry, of course no. But there is much better introduction blog posts on this topic in my opinion.
