r-cran-markdown - 1.12+dfsg-2 main

Provides R bindings to the Sundown Markdown rendering library by
Vicent Marti
e.a., based upon work by Natacha Porté. Markdown is a plain-text
formatting syntax that can be converted to XHTML or other formats.
.
The R function `markdownToHTML` renders a markdown file to HTML. Options
controlling HTML output and supported markdown extensions can be
optionally specified.
.
The package also exports the underlying Sundown C extension API which
enables creating and calling custom renderers using the
`renderMarkdown` function.
.
Please note: the rmarkdown package (with leading r) converts R Markdown
documents into even more formats, by using pandoc; the CRAN rmarkdown
package is a newer and enhanced version of this markdown package.
