Synopsis

  my $html = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'README.md');

Description

This is the Markdown <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/> parser for Text::Markup. It reads in the file (relying on a BOM <http://www.unicode.org/unicode/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM>), hands it off to Text::Markdown for parsing, and then returns the generated HTML as an encoded UTF-8 string with an "http-equiv="Content-Type"" element identifying the encoding as UTF-8.

It recognizes files with the following extensions as Markdown:

.md

.mkd

.mkdn

.mdown

.markdown
