Use Mikidown to visualize you notes

You can find this file in the menu: Help->README.

If you are unfamiliar with markdown, you can use this file as a simple reference to basic markdown syntax.

However, I suggest you take a look at the complete Markdown Syntax.

Changes made by me:

• Properly support relative URLS
• use wiki:// to indicate a link within the notebook
• Fix PDF support
