To make things simple for you, I have written a PHP script at /index/new.php. This can take a directory name in the query string with dir= or a file name with file= or both as input. When given just a directory name, it will return a JSON encoded array of the files in the directory that have been modified recently enough to bypass caching for them. Since the directory will already be known by the calling script, it returns the file names without the directories added. When given a file name as input, it will return 1 if that file has been modified recently enough to warrant bypassing the cache, and it will return 0 if the file is old enough that it will be the same as any cached version of the same file. If a directory name is given with a file name, it will use the directory name to put together the full name of the file if needed. If it doesn't find the named directory or file, it will return the value 404.

Quick Markdown Guide

By default, new comments may be entered as Markdown, simple markup syntax designed to be readable and not look like markup. Comments stored as Markdown will be converted to HTML by Parsedown before displaying them. This follows the Github Flavored Markdown Spec with support for Markdown Extra. For a good overview of Markdown in general, check out the Markdown Guide. Here is a quick comparison of some commonly used Markdown with the rendered result:
