About

Convert Markdown to Unicode:

Uses pulldown-cmark and a modified version of its push_html to do real Markdown parsing and rendering. As a result, it normalizes:

• Headings: Setext headings
• Unordered lists: *
• Ordered lists: numbered, .
• Rules: ---
• Tables

Notes

1. This crate does not do syntax highlighting or terminal colors. For that, please check out bat and syntect.

2. This crate outputs Unicode text using the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols and Enclosed Alphanumerics blocks, however your ability to see the effects depends on the specific applications (terminal, text editor, web browser, etc) you're using and their configurations (fonts, etc). For instance, it's very probable that regular and monospace look identical in a terminal or text editor, because the font is probably monospace. If a non-monospace font is configured or another application is used that uses a non-monospace font, or the output bytes are examined more closely, you will see the effect.

3. This crate can be considered an improved version of the markdown2unicode crate but contains no copyrighted nor GPLv3 licensed code from its original upstream source (USBashka's markdown2unicode) and uses pulldown-cmark instead.
