Discount Markdown Processor for Ruby

CODE: git clone git://github.com/davidfstr/rdiscount.git
HOME: http://dafoster.net/projects/rdiscount/
DOCS: http://rdoc.info/github/davidfstr/rdiscount/master/RDiscount
BUGS: http://github.com/davidfstr/rdiscount/issues

Discount was developed by David Loren Parsons. The Ruby extension is maintained by David Foster.

INSTALL, HACKING

New releases of RDiscount are published to RubyGems:

$ [sudo] gem install rdiscount

The RDiscount sources are available via Git:

$ git clone git://github.com/davidfstr/rdiscount.git
$ cd rdiscount
$ rake --tasks

See the file BUILDING for hacking instructions.

USAGE

RDiscount implements the basic protocol popularized by RedCloth and adopted by BlueCloth:

require 'rdiscount'
markdown = RDiscount.new("Hello World!")
puts markdown.to_html

Additional processing options can be turned on when creating the RDiscount object:

markdown = RDiscount.new("Hello World!", :smart, :filter_html)

Inject RDiscount into your BlueCloth-using code by replacing your bluecloth require statements with the following:

begin
  require 'rdiscount'
  BlueCloth = RDiscount
rescue LoadError
  require 'bluecloth'
end
