Package: markdown
Version: 1.0.1-2
Severity: wishlist

With very little work, markdown could be turned into a proper perl
library. I don't want to fork perl and interpret the whole program every
time my program needs to render a page.

My current hack for using /usr/bin/markdown as a perl library is this:

BEGIN {
        $blosxom::version="is a proper perl module too much to ask?";
        do "/usr/bin/markdown";
}

Markdown::Markdown($text);
