# A markdown-to-html in pure awk

|
|
|
This awk script reads markdown files and generates html from them.
|
|
Compared to other implementations of markdown in awk, it tries to do the right thing most of the time.
|
|
|
|
You can use `markdown.awk` to generate html pages from your plaintext notes, or send html emails with mutt.
|
|
|
|
**This is a work in progress**
