-<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>
-<h3 id="philosophy">Philosophy</h3>
-<p>Markdown is intended to be as easy-to-read and easy-to-write
-as is feasible.</p>
-<p>Readability, however, is emphasized above all else. 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 —
-including <a href=
-"http://docutils.sourceforge.net/mirror/setext.html">Setext</a>,
-<a href="http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/atx/">atx</a>, <a href=
-"http://textism.com/tools/textile/">Textile</a>, <a href=
-"http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html">reStructuredText</a>,
-<a href=
-"http://www.triptico.com/software/grutatxt.html">Grutatext</a>,
-and <a href="http://ettext.taint.org/doc/">EtText</a> — the
-single biggest source of inspiration for Markdown’s syntax
-is the format of plain text email.</p>
-<p>To this end, Markdown’s syntax is comprised entirely of
-punctuation characters, which punctuation characters have been
-carefully chosen so as to look like what they mean. E.g.,
-asterisks around a word actually look like *emphasis*. Markdown
-lists look like, well, lists. Even blockquotes look like quoted
-passages of text, assuming you’ve ever used email.</p>
-<h3 id="html">Inline HTML</h3>
-<p>Markdown’s syntax is intended for one purpose: to be
-used as a format for <em>writing</em> for the web.</p>
-<p>Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it.
-Its syntax is very small, corresponding only to a very small
-subset of HTML tags. The idea is <em>not</em> to create a syntax
-that makes it easier to insert HTML tags. In my opinion, HTML
-tags are already easy to insert. The idea for Markdown is to make
-it easy to read, write, and edit prose. HTML is a
-<em>publishing</em> format; Markdown is a <em>writing</em>
-format. Thus, Markdown’s formatting syntax only addresses
-issues that can be conveyed in plain text.</p>
-<p>For any markup that is not covered by Markdown’s syntax,
-you simply use HTML itself. There’s no need to preface it
-or delimit it to indicate that you’re switching from
-Markdown to HTML; you just use the tags.</p>
-<p>The only restrictions are that block-level HTML elements
-— e.g. <code><div></code>,
-<code><table></code>, <code><pre></code>,
-<code><p></code>, etc. — must be separated from
-surrounding content by blank lines, and the start and end tags of
-the block should not be indented with tabs or spaces. Markdown is
-smart enough not to add extra (unwanted) <code><p></code>
-tags around HTML block-level tags.</p>
-<p>For example, to add an HTML table to a Markdown article:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is a regular paragraph.
-
-<table>
- <tr>
- <td>Foo</td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-
-This is another regular paragraph.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Note that Markdown formatting syntax is not processed within
-block-level HTML tags. E.g., you can’t use Markdown-style
-<code>*emphasis*</code> inside an HTML block.</p>
-<p>Span-level HTML tags — e.g. <code><span></code>,
-<code><cite></code>, or <code><del></code> —
-can be used anywhere in a Markdown paragraph, list item, or
-header. If you want, you can even use HTML tags instead of
-Markdown formatting; e.g. if you’d prefer to use HTML
-<code><a></code> or <code><img></code> tags instead
-of Markdown’s link or image syntax, go right ahead.</p>
-<p>Unlike block-level HTML tags, Markdown syntax <em>is</em>
-processed within span-level tags.</p>
-<h3 id="autoescape">Automatic Escaping for Special
-Characters</h3>
-<p>In HTML, there are two characters that demand special
-treatment: <code><</code> and <code>&</code>. Left angle
-brackets are used to start tags; ampersands are used to denote
-HTML entities. If you want to use them as literal characters, you
-must escape them as entities, e.g. <code>&lt;</code>, and
-<code>&amp;</code>.</p>
-<p>Ampersands in particular are bedeviling for web writers. If
-you want to write about ‘AT&T’, you need to write
-‘<code>AT&amp;T</code>’. You even need to escape
-ampersands within URLs. Thus, if you want to link to:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>http://images.google.com/images?num=30&q=larry+bird
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>you need to encode the URL as:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>http://images.google.com/images?num=30&amp;q=larry+bird
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>in your anchor tag <code>href</code> attribute. Needless to
-say, this is easy to forget, and is probably the single most
-common source of HTML validation errors in otherwise
-well-marked-up web sites.</p>
-<p>Markdown allows you to use these characters naturally, taking
-care of all the necessary escaping for you. If you use an
-ampersand as part of an HTML entity, it remains unchanged;
-otherwise it will be translated into <code>&amp;</code>.</p>
-<p>So, if you want to include a copyright symbol in your article,
-you can write:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>&copy;
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>and Markdown will leave it alone. But if you write:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>AT&T
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown will translate it to:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>AT&amp;T
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Similarly, because Markdown supports <a href="#html">inline
-HTML</a>, if you use angle brackets as delimiters for HTML tags,
-Markdown will treat them as such. But if you write:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>4 < 5
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown will translate it to:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>4 &lt; 5
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>However, inside Markdown code spans and blocks, angle brackets
-and ampersands are <em>always</em> encoded automatically. This
-makes it easy to use Markdown to write about HTML code. (As
-opposed to raw HTML, which is a terrible format for writing about
-HTML syntax, because every single <code><</code> and
-<code>&</code> in your example code needs to be escaped.)</p>
-<hr>
-<h2 id="block">Block Elements</h2>
-<h3 id="p">Paragraphs and Line Breaks</h3>
-<p>A paragraph is simply one or more consecutive lines of text,
-separated by one or more blank lines. (A blank line is any line
-that looks like a blank line — a line containing nothing
-but spaces or tabs is considered blank.) Normal paragraphs should
-not be intended with spaces or tabs.</p>
-<p>The implication of the “one or more consecutive lines of
-text” rule is that Markdown supports
-“hard-wrapped” text paragraphs. This differs
-significantly from most other text-to-HTML formatters (including
-Movable Type’s “Convert Line Breaks” option)
-which translate every line break character in a paragraph into a
-<code><br /></code> tag.</p>
-<p>When you <em>do</em> want to insert a <code><br
-/></code> break tag using Markdown, you end a line with two or
-more spaces, then type return.</p>
-<p>Yes, this takes a tad more effort to create a <code><br
-/></code>, but a simplistic “every line break is a
-<code><br /></code>” rule wouldn’t work for
-Markdown. Markdown’s email-style <a href=
-"#blockquote">blockquoting</a> and multi-paragraph <a href=
-"#list">list items</a> work best — and look better —
-when you format them with hard breaks.</p>
-<h3 id="header">Headers</h3>
-<p>Markdown supports two styles of headers, <a href=
-"http://docutils.sourceforge.net/mirror/setext.html">Setext</a>
-and <a href="http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/atx/">atx</a>.</p>
-<p>Setext-style headers are “underlined” using equal
-signs (for first-level headers) and dashes (for second-level
-headers). For example:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is an H1
-=============
-
-This is an H2
--------------
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Any number of underlining <code>=</code>’s or
-<code>-</code>’s will work.</p>
-<p>Atx-style headers use 1-6 hash characters at the start of the
-line, corresponding to header levels 1-6. For example:</p>
-<pre>
-<code># This is an H1
-
-## This is an H2
-
-###### This is an H6
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Optionally, you may “close” atx-style headers.
-This is purely cosmetic — you can use this if you think it
-looks better. The closing hashes don’t even need to match
-the number of hashes used to open the header. (The number of
-opening hashes determines the header level.) :</p>
-<pre>
-<code># This is an H1 #
-
-## This is an H2 ##
-
-### This is an H3 ######
-</code>
-</pre>
-<h3 id="blockquote">Blockquotes</h3>
-<p>Markdown uses email-style <code>></code> characters for
-blockquoting. If you’re familiar with quoting passages of
-text in an email message, then you know how to create a
-blockquote in Markdown. It looks best if you hard wrap the text
-and put a <code>></code> before every line:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>> This is a blockquote with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
-> consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus.
-> Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
->
-> Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit. Suspendisse
-> id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown allows you to be lazy and only put the
-<code>></code> before the first line of a hard-wrapped
-paragraph:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>> This is a blockquote with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
-consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus.
-Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
-
-> Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit. Suspendisse
-id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Blockquotes can be nested (i.e. a blockquote-in-a-blockquote)
-by adding additional levels of <code>></code>:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>> This is the first level of quoting.
->
-> > This is nested blockquote.
->
-> Back to the first level.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Blockquotes can contain other Markdown elements, including
-headers, lists, and code blocks:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>> ## This is a header.
->
-> 1. This is the first list item.
-> 2. This is the second list item.
->
-> Here's some example code:
->
-> return shell_exec("echo $input | $markdown_script");
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Any decent text editor should make email-style quoting easy.
-For example, with BBEdit, you can make a selection and choose
-Increase Quote Level from the Text menu.</p>
-<h3 id="list">Lists</h3>
-<p>Markdown supports ordered (numbered) and unordered (bulleted)
-lists.</p>
-<p>Unordered lists use asterisks, pluses, and hyphens —
-interchangably — as list markers:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* Red
-* Green
-* Blue
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>is equivalent to:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>+ Red
-+ Green
-+ Blue
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>and:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>- Red
-- Green
-- Blue
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Ordered lists use numbers followed by periods:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>1. Bird
-2. McHale
-3. Parish
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>It’s important to note that the actual numbers you use
-to mark the list have no effect on the HTML output Markdown
-produces. The HTML Markdown produces from the above list is:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><ol>
-<li>Bird</li>
-<li>McHale</li>
-<li>Parish</li>
-</ol>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>If you instead wrote the list in Markdown like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>1. Bird
-1. McHale
-1. Parish
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>or even:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>3. Bird
-1. McHale
-8. Parish
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>you’d get the exact same HTML output. The point is, if
-you want to, you can use ordinal numbers in your ordered Markdown
-lists, so that the numbers in your source match the numbers in
-your published HTML. But if you want to be lazy, you don’t
-have to.</p>
-<p>If you do use lazy list numbering, however, you should still
-start the list with the number 1. At some point in the future,
-Markdown may support starting ordered lists at an arbitrary
-number.</p>
-<p>List markers typically start at the left margin, but may be
-indented by up to three spaces. List markers must be followed by
-one or more spaces or a tab.</p>
-<p>To make lists look nice, you can wrap items with hanging
-indents:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
- Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus. Vestibulum enim wisi,
- viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
-* Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit.
- Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>But if you want to be lazy, you don’t have to:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
-Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus. Vestibulum enim wisi,
-viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
-* Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit.
-Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>If list items are separated by blank lines, Markdown will wrap
-the items in <code><p></code> tags in the HTML output. For
-example, this input:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* Bird
-* Magic
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will turn into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><ul>
-<li>Bird</li>
-<li>Magic</li>
-</ul>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>But this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* Bird
-
-* Magic
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will turn into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><ul>
-<li><p>Bird</p></li>
-<li><p>Magic</p></li>
-</ul>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>List items may consist of multiple paragraphs. Each subsequent
-paragraph in a list item must be intended by either 4 spaces or
-one tab:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>1. This is a list item with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor
- sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit
- mi posuere lectus.
-
- Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet
- vitae, risus. Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum
- sit amet velit.
-
-2. Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>It looks nice if you indent every line of the subsequent
-paragraphs, but here again, Markdown will allow you to be
-lazy:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* This is a list item with two paragraphs.
-
- This is the second paragraph in the list item. You're
-only required to indent the first line. Lorem ipsum dolor
-sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
-
-* Another item in the same list.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>To put a blockquote within a list item, the blockquote’s
-<code>></code> delimiters need to be indented:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* A list item with a blockquote:
-
- > This is a blockquote
- > inside a list item.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>To put a code block within a list item, the code block needs
-to be indented <em>twice</em> — 8 spaces or two tabs:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* A list item with a code block:
-
- <code goes here>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>It’s worth noting that it’s possible to trigger an
-ordered list by accident, by writing something like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>1986. What a great season.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>In other words, a <em>number-period-space</em> sequence at the
-beginning of a line. To avoid this, you can backslash-escape the
-period:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>1986\. What a great season.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<h3 id="precode">Code Blocks</h3>
-<p>Pre-formatted code blocks are used for writing about
-programming or markup source code. Rather than forming normal
-paragraphs, the lines of a code block are interpreted literally.
-Markdown wraps a code block in both <code><pre></code> and
-<code><code></code> tags.</p>
-<p>To produce a code block in Markdown, simply indent every line
-of the block by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab. For example, given
-this input:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is a normal paragraph:
-
- This is a code block.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown will generate:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>This is a normal paragraph:</p>
-
-<pre><code>This is a code block.
-</code></pre>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>One level of indentation — 4 spaces or 1 tab — is
-removed from each line of the code block. For example, this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>Here is an example of AppleScript:
-
- tell application "Foo"
- beep
- end tell
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will turn into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>Here is an example of AppleScript:</p>
-
-<pre><code>tell application "Foo"
- beep
-end tell
-</code></pre>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>A code block continues until it reaches a line that is not
-indented (or the end of the article).</p>
-<p>Within a code block, ampersands (<code>&</code>) and angle
-brackets (<code><</code> and <code>></code>) are
-automatically converted into HTML entities. This makes it very
-easy to include example HTML source code using Markdown —
-just paste it and indent it, and Markdown will handle the hassle
-of encoding the ampersands and angle brackets. For example,
-this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code> <div class="footer">
- &copy; 2004 Foo Corporation
- </div>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will turn into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><pre><code>&lt;div class="footer"&gt;
- &amp;copy; 2004 Foo Corporation
-&lt;/div&gt;
-</code></pre>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Regular Markdown syntax is not processed within code blocks.
-E.g., asterisks are just literal asterisks within a code block.
-This means it’s also easy to use Markdown to write about
-Markdown’s own syntax.</p>
-<h3 id="hr">Horizontal Rules</h3>
-<p>You can produce a horizontal rule tag (<code><hr
-/></code>) by placing three or more hyphens or asterisks on a
-line by themselves. If you wish, you may use spaces between the
-hyphens or asterisks. Each of the following lines will produce a
-horizontal rule:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>* * *
-
-***
-
-*****
-
-- - -
-
----------------------------------------
-</code>
-</pre>
-<hr>
-<h2 id="span">Span Elements</h2>
-<h3 id="link">Links</h3>
-<p>Markdown supports two style of links: <em>inline</em> and
-<em>reference</em>.</p>
-<p>In both styles, the link text is delimited by [square
-brackets].</p>
-<p>To create an inline link, use a set of regular parentheses
-immediately after the link text’s closing square bracket.
-Inside the parentheses, put the URL where you want the link to
-point, along with an <em>optional</em> title for the link,
-surrounded in quotes. For example:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is [an example](http://example.com/ "Title") inline link.
-
-[This link](http://example.net/) has no title attribute.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Will produce:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>This is <a href="http://example.com/" title="Title">
-an example</a> inline link.</p>
-
-<p><a href="http://example.net/">This link</a> has no
-title attribute.</p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>If you’re referring to a local resource on the same
-server, you can use relative paths:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>See my [About](/about/) page for details.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Reference-style links use a second set of square brackets,
-inside which you place a label of your choosing to identify the
-link:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is [an example][id] reference-style link.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>You can optionally use a space to separate the sets of
-brackets:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>This is [an example] [id] reference-style link.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Then, anywhere in the document, you define your link label
-like this, on a line by itself:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[id]: http://example.com/ "Optional Title Here"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>That is:</p>
-<ul>
-<li>Square brackets containing the link identifier (optionally
-indented from the left margin using spaces or tabs);</li>
-<li>followed by a colon;</li>
-<li>followed by one or more spaces (or tabs);</li>
-<li>followed by the URL for the link;</li>
-<li>optionally followed by a title attribute for the link,
-enclosed in double or single quotes.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>The link URL may, optionally, be surrounded by angle
-brackets:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[id]: <http://example.com/> "Optional Title Here"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>You can put the title attribute on the next line and use extra
-spaces or tabs for padding, which tends to look better with
-longer URLs:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[id]: http://example.com/longish/path/to/resource/here
- "Optional Title Here"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Link definitions are only used for creating links during
-Markdown processing, and are stripped from your document in the
-HTML output.</p>
-<p>Link definition names may constist of letters, numbers,
-spaces, and punctuation — but they are <em>not</em> case
-sensitive. E.g. these two links:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[link text][a]
-[link text][A]
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>are equivalent.</p>
-<p>The <em>implicit link name</em> shortcut allows you to omit
-the name of the link, in which case the link text itself is used
-as the name. Just use an empty set of square brackets —
-e.g., to link the word “Google” to the google.com web
-site, you could simply write:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[Google][]
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>And then define the link:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[Google]: http://google.com/
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Because link names may contain spaces, this shortcut even
-works for multiple words in the link text:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>Visit [Daring Fireball][] for more information.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>And then define the link:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[Daring Fireball]: http://daringfireball.net/
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Link definitions can be placed anywhere in your Markdown
-document. I tend to put them immediately after each paragraph in
-which they’re used, but if you want, you can put them all
-at the end of your document, sort of like footnotes.</p>
-<p>Here’s an example of reference links in action:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>I get 10 times more traffic from [Google] [1] than from
-[Yahoo] [2] or [MSN] [3].
-
- [1]: http://google.com/ "Google"
- [2]: http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search"
- [3]: http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Using the implicit link name shortcut, you could instead
-write:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>I get 10 times more traffic from [Google][] than from
-[Yahoo][] or [MSN][].
-
- [google]: http://google.com/ "Google"
- [yahoo]: http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search"
- [msn]: http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Both of the above examples will produce the following HTML
-output:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>I get 10 times more traffic from <a href="http://google.com/"
-title="Google">Google</a> than from
-<a href="http://search.yahoo.com/" title="Yahoo Search">Yahoo</a>
-or <a href="http://search.msn.com/" title="MSN Search">MSN</a>.</p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>For comparison, here is the same paragraph written using
-Markdown’s inline link style:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>I get 10 times more traffic from [Google](http://google.com/ "Google")
-than from [Yahoo](http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search") or
-[MSN](http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search").
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>The point of reference-style links is not that they’re
-easier to write. The point is that with reference-style links,
-your document source is vastly more readable. Compare the above
-examples: using reference-style links, the paragraph itself is
-only 81 characters long; with inline-style links, it’s 176
-characters; and as raw HTML, it’s 234 characters. In the
-raw HTML, there’s more markup than there is text.</p>
-<p>With Markdown’s reference-style links, a source document
-much more closely resembles the final output, as rendered in a
-browser. By allowing you to move the markup-related metadata out
-of the paragraph, you can add links without interrupting the
-narrative flow of your prose.</p>
-<h3 id="em">Emphasis</h3>
-<p>Markdown treats asterisks (<code>*</code>) and underscores
-(<code>_</code>) as indicators of emphasis. Text wrapped with one
-<code>*</code> or <code>_</code> will be wrapped with an HTML
-<code><em></code> tag; double <code>*</code>’s or
-<code>_</code>’s will be wrapped with an HTML
-<code><strong></code> tag. E.g., this input:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>*single asterisks*
-
-_single underscores_
-
-**double asterisks**
-
-__double underscores__
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will produce:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><em>single asterisks</em>
-
-<em>single underscores</em>
-
-<strong>double asterisks</strong>
-
-<strong>double underscores</strong>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>You can use whichever style you prefer; the lone restriction
-is that the same character must be used to open and close an
-emphasis span.</p>
-<p>Emphasis can be used in the middle of a word:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>un*fucking*believable
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>But if you surround an <code>*</code> or <code>_</code> with
-spaces, it’ll be treated as a literal asterisk or
-underscore.</p>
-<p>To produce a literal asterisk or underscore at a position
-where it would otherwise be used as an emphasis delimiter, you
-can backslash escape it:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>\*this text is surrounded by literal asterisks\*
-</code>
-</pre>
-<h3 id="code">Code</h3>
-<p>To indicate a span of code, wrap it with backtick quotes
-(<code>`</code>). Unlike a pre-formatted code block, a code span
-indicates code within a normal paragraph. For example:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>Use the `printf()` function.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>will produce:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>Use the <code>printf()</code> function.</p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>To include a literal backtick character within a code span,
-you can backslash escape it:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>`There is a literal backtick (\`) here.`
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Or, if you prefer, you can use multiple backticks as the
-opening and closing delimiters:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>``There is a literal backtick (`) here.``
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Both of the previous two examples will produce this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p><code>There is a literal backtick (`) here.</code></p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>With a code span, ampersands and angle brackets are encoded as
-HTML entities automatically, which makes it easy to include
-example HTML tags. Markdown will turn this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>Please don't use any `<blink>` tags.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p>Please don't use any <code>&lt;blink&gt;</code> tags.</p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>You can write this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>`&#8212;` is the decimal-encoded equivalent of `&mdash;`.
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>to produce:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><p><code>&amp;#8212;</code> is the decimal-encoded
-equivalent of <code>&amp;mdash;</code>.</p>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<h3 id="img">Images</h3>
-<p>Admittedly, it’s fairly difficult to devise a
-“natural” syntax for placing images into a plain text
-document format.</p>
-<p>Markdown uses an image syntax that is intended to resemble the
-syntax for links, allowing for two styles: <em>inline</em> and
-<em>reference</em>.</p>
-<p>Inline image syntax looks like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>
-
-
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>That is:</p>
-<ul>
-<li>An exclamation mark: <code>!</code>;</li>
-<li>followed by a set of square brackets, containing the
-<code>alt</code> attribute text for the image;</li>
-<li>followed by a set of parentheses, containing the URL or path
-to the image, and an optional <code>title</code> attribute
-enclosed in double or single quotes.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>Reference-style image syntax looks like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>![Alt text][id]
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Where “id” is the name of a defined image
-reference. Image references are defined using syntax identical to
-link references:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>[id]: url/to/image "Optional title attribute"
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>As of this writing, Markdown has no syntax for specifying the
-dimensions of an image; if this is important to you, you can
-simply use regular HTML <code><img></code> tags.</p>
-<hr>
-<h2 id="misc">Miscellaneous</h2>
-<h3 id="autolink">Automatic Links</h3>
-<p>Markdown supports a shortcut style for creating
-“automatic” links for URLs and email addresses:
-simply surround the URL or email address with angle brackets.
-What this means is that if you want to show the actual text of a
-URL or email address, and also have it be a clickable link, you
-can do this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><http://example.com/>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown will turn this into:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><a href="http://example.com/">http://example.com/</a>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Automatic links for email addresses work similarly, except
-that Markdown will also perform a bit of randomized decimal and
-hex entity-encoding to help obscure your address from
-address-harvesting spambots. For example, Markdown will turn
-this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><address@example.com>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>into something like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code><a href="&#x6D;&#x61;i&#x6C;&#x74;&#x6F;:&#x61;&#x64;&#x64;&#x72;&#x65;
-&#115;&#115;&#64;&#101;&#120;&#x61;&#109;&#x70;&#x6C;e&#x2E;&#99;&#111;
-&#109;">&#x61;&#x64;&#x64;&#x72;&#x65;&#115;&#115;&#64;&#101;&#120;&#x61;
-&#109;&#x70;&#x6C;e&#x2E;&#99;&#111;&#109;</a>
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>which will render in a browser as a clickable link to
-“address@example.com”.</p>
-<p>(This sort of entity-encoding trick will indeed fool many, if
-not most, address-harvesting bots, but it definitely won’t
-fool all of them. It’s better than nothing, but an address
-published in this way will probably eventually start receiving
-spam.)</p>
-<h3 id="backslash">Backslash Escapes</h3>
-<p>Markdown allows you to use backslash escapes to generate
-literal characters which would otherwise have special meaning in
-Markdown’s formatting syntax. For example, if you wanted to
-surround a word with literal asterisks (instead of an HTML
-<code><em></code> tag), you can backslashes before the
-asterisks, like this:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>\*literal asterisks\*
-</code>
-</pre>
-<p>Markdown provides backslash escapes for the following
-characters:</p>
-<pre>
-<code>\ backslash
-` backtick
-* asterisk
-_ underscore
-{} curly braces
-[] square brackets
-() parentheses
-# hash mark
-. dot
-! exclamation mark
-</code>
