Still seem to have the problem of using asterisks as expression, ie

  • should be asterisk both ends*
Ends up like that ^^^

This is a nuance of the formatting for bullet points that they always start with a * so it puts it as a bullet. Though it does just look for a new line and a * at the start.

So this works *this is my point*

but this doesn't

  • this is my point*
If you want a * at the beginning of a new line then put a space in before the first * like this.

*this works*

Hope that helps.
