markdown2 Description

A fast and complete Python implementaion of Markdown Markdown is a light text markup format and a processor to convert that to HTML. The originator describes it as follows:Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). -- http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ markdown2 provides a converter written in Python that closely matches the behaviour of the original Perl-implemented Markdown.pl. There is another Python markdown.py (see link at right), but markdown2.py is faster (see PerformanceNotes) and, to my knowledge, more correct (see TestingNotes).Basic Python Module Usage>>> import markdown2>>> markdown2.markdown("*boo!*") # or use `html = markdown_path(PATH)`u'< p >< em >boo!< /em >< /p > '>>> markdowner = Markdown()>>> markdowner.convert("*boo!*")u'< p >< em >boo!< /em >< /p > '>>> markdowner.convert("**boom!**")u'< p >< strong >boom!< /strong >< /p > 'Basic Command-Line Usage$ cat foo.txt*boo!*$ python markdown2.py foo.txt< p >< em >boo!< /em >< /p >$ python markdown2.py -h...detailed command-line usage...
