Little convenience tool to extract docstrings from a module or class and convert them to GitHub Flavoured Markdown:
https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown
Its purpose is to quickly generate README.md files for small projects.
The interface consists of the following functions:
doctrim(docstring)doc2md(docstring, title)
You can run this script from the command line like:
$ doc2md.py [-a] [--no-toc] [-t title] module-name [class-name] > README.mdAt the moment this is suited only for a very specific use case. It is hardly forseeable, if I will decide to improve on it in the near future.
