NAME

       hsmarkdown - convert markdown-formatted text to HTML

SYNOPSIS

       hsmarkdown [input-file]...

DESCRIPTION

       hsmarkdown  converts  markdown-formatted  text  to HTML.  It is designed to be usable as a
       drop-in replacement for John Gruber's Markdown.pl.

       If no input-file is specified, input is read from stdin.  Otherwise, the  input-files  are
       concatenated (with a blank line between each) and used as input.  Output goes to stdout by
       default.  For output to a file, use shell redirection:

             hsmarkdown input.txt > output.html

       hsmarkdown is implemented as a symlink to the pandoc(1) executable.  When called under the
       name   hsmarkdown,   pandoc   behaves   as   if  it  had  been  called  with  the  options
       --from markdown --to html --strict and disables all other options.  (Command-line  options
       will be interpreted as filenames, as they are by Markdown.pl.)

SEE ALSO

       pandoc(1).  The README file distributed with Pandoc contains full documentation.

       The    Pandoc    source    code   and   all   documentation   may   be   downloaded   from
       <http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/>.
