NAME
mkd2html — convert a markdown document into (X)HTML
SYNOPSIS
mkd2html [-dHhmnx] [file]
DESCRIPTION
mkd2html utility reads file and generates (X)HTML input from markdown source. If unspecified, file is taken to be standard input.
By default, mkd2html implies -H and -m options.
The options are as follows:
-d, --discount
enable Discount extensions:
•
image size specification, by appending "=(width)x(height)" to the link
•
pseudo-protocols in links:
•
abbr:description for <abbr title="description">...</abbr>
•
class:name for <span class="name">...</span>
•
id:name for <span id="name">...</span>
•
raw:text for verbatim unprocessed text inclusion
•
class blocks: blockquotes beginning with %class% will be rendered as a div of the given class(es)
and PHP-Markdown-like tables.
-H, --html
output HTML (self-closing tags like: <br>).
-h, --help
display help text.
-m, --markdown
disable all extensions and use strict markdown syntax.
-n, --natext
enable Discount extensions and Natasha’s own extensions:
•
id attribute for headers, using the syntax id#Header text
•
class attribute for paragraphs, by putting class name(s) between parenthesis at the very beginning of the paragraph
•
<ins> and <del> spans, using respectively ++ and -- as delimiters (with emphasis-like restrictions, i.e. an opening delimiter cannot be followed by a whitespace, and a closing delimiter cannot be preceded by a whitespace)
•
plain <span> without attribute, using emphasis-like delimiter |
-x, --xhtml
output XHTML (self-closing tags like: <br />).
