mdp – A command-line based markdown presentation tool

Much of the colour scheme and the grey/blue fading ramp behaviour appears to have been lifted from a similar tool I wrote, vtmc[1]. While it was nice to be credited in the "CREDITS" file, it would have been nicer to make it into README -- nicer still for the code not to have been taken from MIT to GPL!

But I suppose, as they say: imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Did you see the guy's blog post? http://blog.myjm.de/2014/09/mdp/ . You are admitted to be basically the reason he wrote this.

Yea, I wouldn't get too bent out of shape. The original idea is posted in multiple places, so if he didn't pick the one you particularly care about, you might just want to get down from the pedestal, because you're being attributed everywhere else.
