Add first draft of @def-lkb's post (for 20 Aug?)

[amirmc]

For #6

This guest post covers both ocp-indent and merlin.

It could go up either Wed or Thu.
@def-lkb, I hope you don't mind if we post it on the Platform blog.

A the time of this writing, an interface to these tools is only available for Emacs and Vim although using them from other editors is definitely possible and some efforts exist for ...

[Chris00]

I think a screenshot or two would be nice.

[let-def]

@amirmc No problem for posting to the platform blog!

[yallop]

Fixed some minor issues in d352e20.

[yallop]

Changed to @Chris00's suggested wording in 6e12379, and made some broader changes to wording in 11e08fa.

@def-lkb or anyone else: got any Merlin screenshots handy? I can edit them in if you do.

[let-def]

I just made this one showing auto-complete on Emacs:

The screenshot is nice. My minor gripe about it is that the current position of the cursor is not visible. Maybe one could add it by hand (or have a sentence explaining what the user is doing).

[let-def]

The cursor was in dark blue… on a dark grey background.
I painted it in orange here http://yawdp.com/~def/shot3.png

Much better I think.

@def-lkb Can you add/link the image in the post? @avsm once that's done, are you happy to merge this and make it live?

[let-def]

Done. I don't know how author list is displayed, but it would be nice to
add @trefis too.

@AltGr how do multiple authors work? There isn't another example in this repo. Would the following be correct?

authors: "Frederic Bour" {"https://github.com/def-lkb"} "Thomas Refis" {"https://github.com/trefis"}

[avsm]

Live, thanks. @amirmc, the format of the authors header is the same as opam's parser, through no coincidence :)
