Convert Markdown from String not File

[talezion]

Hi,

Is there a way to convert Markdown directly from String instead of creating CMDocument? The reason is I have the markdown text in a String, so I need to save to local directory and then convert to CMDocument which is an expensive task. CMDocument can only take contentOfFile.

Thank you
Tal

You can use -[CMDocument initWithData:options:]. For an NSString you have to convert it into an NSData first:

// Use appropriate encoding here
NSData *data = [string dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
CMDocument *doc = [[CMDocument alloc] initWithData:data options:0];

+1 Would be nice to have a convenience initializer.

A convenience initializer was added as part of #52.
