Description-en: PHP library for rendering Markdown data
This is a library package that includes the PHP Markdown parser and its
sibling PHP Markdown Extra with additional features.
.
"Markdown" is actually two things: a plain text markup syntax, and a
software tool that converts the plain text markup to HTML.
.
The Markdown syntax allows you to write text naturally and format it
without using HTML tags. More importantly: in Markdown format, your text
stays enjoyable to read for a human being, and this is true enough that
it makes a Markdown document publishable as-is, as plain text. If you
are using text-formatted email, you already know some part of the
syntax.
