Description-en: text-to-HTML conversion library/tool (Python 2 version)
Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown
allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text
format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).
.
This is a Python implementation of John Gruber's Markdown. The current
version of python-markdown implements all Markdown syntax features and
fully passes Markdown Test Suite 1.0. It also supports footnotes and
attributes.
.
This package contains all the files needed to use Markdown with Python
2.x, and the /usr/bin/markdown_py command-line tool (provided for
compatibility purposes).
