Markdown Plugin

Author: Vitaliy Berdinskikh
Version: 0.1.0

MarkdownPlugin is a plugin for jEdit that can render Markdown text from the current buffer or from selected text. The resulting HTML is written to a new buffer or copied to the clipboard. The plugin can also show a preview in a web-browser (using the Info Viewer plugin).

Markdown is an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format. Using this plugin you can convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML).

MarkdownPlugin based on pegdown - the pure java Markdown processor.
