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.)
