+# EXPERIMENTAL Markdown processor with minimal dependencies.
+# Meant to support all features of John Grubers basic Markdown
+# + a number of common extensions, mostly inspired by Pandoc Markdown
+#
+# ToDo:
+# - HTML processing / escaping (according to environment flag)
+# - em-dashes and arrows
+
