Created July 12, 2011 18:16

A custom.css for use with Marked.app

	/*
	This is my hacked up copy of Marked.app/Contents/Resources/gridless.css

	Changes:

	1. Smaller headings
	2. ~~No scrollbars~~ (I now prefer the Lion default behavior)
	3. Styling of definition lists ala LaTeX description lists.
	4. Centering h1.title, h3.author, h4.date (pandoc's title/author/date block).
