Patch provided by Derouiche in PR pkg/50404.
Changes:
o version 2.1.8a When I put in the patch to ..
# Change the mail demangler to a debian-specific 'always mangle
one way' hack. (enabled with the configure.sh option
--debian-glitch)
I messed up the format string and made the mangled email address
into a fixed bogus string. Sigh. Fixed (thanks to a patch from
Alessandro Ghedini), updated (and I really have to expand the
runtime configuration flags array to be long enough to fit 64
settings, but that?s a fix for a different day) and released.
o version 2.1.8 After a year or so of letting the code sit and slowly
accumulate fixes, a new version which fixes a wad of bugs and adds
a few new features. Some of this code is front other people, and
those changes will be marked with their names:
# FINALLY address the bug where markdown extra-style footnotes
lose numbering when they show up in nested element; I was not
carrying the m-e reference# inside the footnotes structure, but
was instead carrying it in the parent structure and not
updating it. So I changed the footnotes structure to include
the reference + the list of footnotes, which made the
misnumbering go away on my tests.
# Fix makefile distclean to cleanup all the generated files and
corrected the names of the installed sample program man pages
to end in .1 (Mark Pizzolato mark@infocomm.com)
# Change the mail demangler to a debian-specific 'always mangle
one way' hack. (enabled with the configure.sh option
--debian-glitch)
# Add --with-unmangled-email compile-time flag to disable mailto:
mangling
# Allow the magic output filename -, which means send output to
stdout instead of to a file.
# Fix a bug where autolink + github flavored markdown absorbs the
^C eoln character into a link at the end of a line.
# Tweak install.samples so that the user can supply a SAMPLE_PFX
on the command line SAMPLE_PFX=discount- make install.samples
to install the sample programs with a package-specific prefix.
# Emit pages in utf-8 instead of us-ascii (simply a change to the
Content-Type meta) (Nathan Phillip Brink binki@gentoo.org)
# Patch the horrible list handler to support long numeric list
items (George Hartzell hartzell@alerce.com)
# Various bugfixes (Masayoshi Sekimura sekimura@gmail.com)
# Fix support for CFLAGS=-m32 ./configure.sh by using CFLAGS for
all build invokations of CC. (Nathan Phillip Brink
binki@gentoo.org)
# Github-style language attributes on fenced code blocks (Loren
Segal lsegal@amazon.com)
# When defining WORD & DWORD, check first for the MS Windows
WinDef.h file; if found, include it instead of defining WORD &
DWORD ourselves.
# support url-encoded anchor links with --with-urlencoded-anchor
option (Daisuke Murase typester@cpan.org)

Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown
allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text
format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).
The overriding design goal for Markdown's formatting syntax is to make
it as readable as possible. The idea is that a Markdown-formatted
document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking
like it's been marked up with tags or formatting instructions. While
Markdown's syntax has been influenced by several existing text-to-HTML
filters, the single biggest source of inspiration for Markdown's
syntax is the format of plain text email.
Original Markdown implementation is written in Perl. Discount provides a
Markdown CLI tool and a library, written in C.
