HSMARKDOWN(1)

NAME

hsmarkdown - convert markdown-formatted text to HTML

SYNOPSIS

hsmarkdown [input-file]...

DESCRIPTION

hsmarkdown converts markdown-formatted text to HTML. It is designed to be usable as a drop-in replacement for John Gruber's Markdown.pl.

If no input-file is specified, input is read from stdin. Otherwise, the input-files are concatenated (with a blank line between each) and used as input. Output goes to stdout by default. For output to a file, use shell redirection:

      hsmarkdown input.txt > output.html

hsmarkdown is implemented as a symlink to the pandoc(1) executable. When called under the name hsmarkdown, pandoc behaves as if it had been called with the options --from markdown --to html --strict and disables all other options. (Command-line options will be interpreted as filenames, as they are by Markdown.pl.)

SEE ALSO

pandoc(1). The README file distributed with Pandoc contains full documentation.

The Pandoc source code and all documentation may be downloaded from <http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/>.
