This plugin lets ikwiki convert files with names ending in ".mdwn" to html. It uses the markdown minimal markup language.
This is the standard markup language used by ikiwiki, although some others are also available in other plugins.
There are several implementations of markdown support that can be used by this plugin. The original version of markdown can be used, or the Text::Markdown perl module.
Text::Markdown also includes a markdown variant called
multimarkdown, which supports
tables, footnotes, and other new features. Multimarkdown is not enabled by
default, but can be turned on via the multimarkdown
option in the setup
file. Note that multimarkdown's metadata and wikilinks features are
disabled when it's used with ikiwiki.
