The Python-Markdown project is developed with the following goals in mind:
-* Maintain a python implementation of markdown that follows the
- [syntax rules](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax)
+* Maintain a Python 2 *and* Python 3 library (with an optional CLI wrapper)
+ suited to use in web server environments (never raise an exception, never
+ write to stdout, etc.) as an implementation of the markdown parser that
+ follows the [syntax rules](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax)
and the behavior of the original (markdown.pl) implementation as reasonably
as possible (see [differences](#differences) for a few exceptions).
* Provide an [Extension API](extensions/api.html) which allows any behaviors of
- the parser to be overridden/changed.
+ the parser to be overridden/changed/added.
