Being a punctuation mark enthusiast, I’m very interested where you got that ⟨==xxx==⟩ notation from



I saw similar punctuation on "Forensic Files" used by a serial killer. Not that anyone who uses odd quotes is a serial killer. ~~Just sayin'~~


I like the way it highlights a quote without having to deal with a bunch of actual quotation marks. If something you want to quote includes quotation marks it can be confusing to read (especially on mobile). It also reminds me of commenting out things when programming.


It is also the header syntax for Vimwiki[0]

Looks like one of the wiki dialects.
