Markdown filter

Provides Markdown filter integration for Drupal input formats. The Markdown syntax is designed to co-exist with HTML, so you can set up input formats with both HTML and Markdown support. It is also meant to be as human-readable as possible when left as "source".

This module is a continuation of the Markdown with Smartypants module, and only includes Markdown support to simplify configuration. It is now suggested that you use Typogrify module if you are interested in Smartypants support. Also note, that if you use the GeSHI filter for code syntax highlighting, arrange this filter after that one.

This module is included in the Acquia Drupal distribution.

Important note about running Markdown with other input filters:

Markdown may conflict with other input filters, depending on the order in which filters are configured to apply. For example, if the "Convert URLs into links" filter is run before Markdown, Markdown-style links will be applied to an already transformed URL, creating unintended results. Additionally, the HTML filter may strip tags from converted Markdown text if the HTML filter runs after Markdown. If using Markdown produces unexpected markup when configured with other filters, experimenting with the order of those filters will likely resolve the issue.
