Python Markdown
===============
Python Markdown converts Markdown to HTML and can be used as a library or
called from the command line.
## Basic usage as a module:
import markdown
md = Markdown()
html = md.convert(your_text_string)
## Basic use from the command line:
markdown source.txt > destination.html
Run "markdown --help" to see more options.
## Extensions
See for more
information and instructions on how to extend the functionality of
Python Markdown. Read that before you try modifying this file.

OVERALL DESIGN
=============================================================================
Markdown processing takes place in four steps:
1. A bunch of "preprocessors" munge the input text.
2. BlockParser() parses the high-level structural elements of the
pre-processed text into an ElementTree.
3. A bunch of "treeprocessors" are run against the ElementTree. One such
treeprocessor runs InlinePatterns against the ElementTree, detecting inline
markup.
4. Some post-processors are run against the text after the ElementTree has
been serialized into text.
5. The output is written to a string.
Those steps are put together by the Markdown() class.
