markup

Markup is a small (ie tiny) command line tool for converting Markdown to HTML.

Installation

$ sudo gem install markup --source http://gemcutter.org

Usage

$ markup README.markdown
Created README.html

$ cat README.html
<h1>markup</h1>

<p>Markup is a small.... etc

By default markup outputs to sourcefile_name.html, but you can specify a different filename using the -o option:

$ markup README.markdown -o instructions.html

Overwrite existing output using the -F option (this will clobber existing files so be careful):

$ markup README.markdown -F

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
