Makers Mark(down)

Generate syntax highlighted HTML using Markdown/Lighthouse conventions. Good for stuff.

Usage

Write something in Markdown. Use the mark command to generate the HTML:

$ mark some-file.md

Syntax Highlighting

If you've used Lighthouse, you probably know how to post snippets of code. This lets you do that as well:

# Some interesting code

Here it is:

@@@ ruby
    def foo
      :bar
    end
@@@

Todo

• The highlighting code is still a bit sketchy
• Ability to insert into a layout
• Other stuff...
