+Available Extensions
+====================
+
+Python Markdown offers a flexible extension mechanism, which makes it possible 
+to change and/or extend the behavior of the parser without having to edit the 
+actual source files. 
+
+To use an extension, pass it's name to markdown with the `extensions` keyword.
+See the [Library Reference](../reference.html#extensions) for more details. 
+
+    markdown.markdown(some_text, extensions=['extra', 'nl2br'])
+
+From the command line, specify an extension with the `-x` option. See the 
+[Command Line docs](../cli.html) or use the `--help` option for more details.
+
+    python -m markdown -x extra input.txt > output.html

+Third Party Extensions
+----------------------
+
+Various individuals and/or organizations have developed extensions which they
+have made available to the public.  A [list of third party 
+extensions](https://github.com/waylan/Python-Markdown/wiki/Third-Party-Extensions)
+is maintained on the wiki for your convenience. The Python-Markdown team 
+offers no official support for these extensions. Please see the developer of 
+each extension for support.

+If you would like to write your own extensions, see the 
+[Extensions API](api.html) for details.
