NAME
multimarkdown - Convert MultiMarkdown syntax to (X)HTML
DESCRIPTION
This program is distributed as part of Perl's Text::MultiMarkdown module, illustrating sample usage. multimarkdown can be invoked on any file containing MultiMarkdown-syntax, and will produce the corresponding (X)HTML on STDOUT: $ cat file.txt [MultiMarkdown][] *extends* the very well-known [Markdown][] syntax. [MultiMarkdown]: http://fletcherpenney.net/What_is_MultiMarkdown [Markdown]: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ $ multimarkdown file.txt <p><a href="http://fletcherpenney.net/What_is_MultiMarkdown">MultiMarkdown</a> <em>extends</em> the very well-known <a href="http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/">Markdown</a> syntax.</p> If no file is specified, it will expect its input from STDIN: $ echo "A **simple** test" | multimarkdown <p>A <strong>simple</strong> test</p>
OPTIONS
version Shows the full information for this version shortversion Shows only the version number html4tags Produce HTML 4-style tags instead of XHTML - XHTML requires elements that do not wrap a block (i.e. the "hr" tag) to state they will not be closed, by closing with "/>". HTML 4-style will plainly output the tag as it comes: $ echo '---' | multimarkdown <hr /> $ echo '---' | multimarkdown --html4tags <hr> help Shows this documentation
