lowdown

Simple Markdown translator

lowdown is just another Markdown translator. It can output traditional HTML or a document for your troff type-setter of choice, such as groff(1), Heirloom troff, or even mandoc(1). lowdown doesn't require XSLT, Python, or even Perl - it's just clean, secure, open source C code with no dependencies. Its canonical documentation is the lowdown(1) manpage.
