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
- 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>
