DESCRIPTION
MultiMarkdown is an extended version of Markdown. See the website for
more information.
http://fletcherpenney.net/multimarkdown/
Markdown is a text-to-HTML filter; it translates an easy-to-read /
easy-to-write structured text format into HTML. Markdown's text format
is most similar to that of plain text email, and supports features such
as headers, *emphasis*, code blocks, blockquotes, and links.
Markdown's syntax is designed not as a generic markup language, but
specifically to serve as a front-end to (X)HTML. You can use span-level
HTML tags anywhere in a Markdown document, and you can use block level
HTML tags (like <div> and <table> as well).
For more information about Markdown's syntax, see:
http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/
OPTIONS
Use "--" to end switch parsing. For example, to open a file named "-z",
use:
Markdown.pl -- -z
--html4tags
Use HTML 4 style for empty element tags, e.g.:
<br>
instead of Markdown's default XHTML style tags, e.g.:
<br />
-v, --version
Display Markdown's version number and copyright information.
-s, --shortversion
Display the short-form version number.
