Discount is an implementation of John Gruber‘s Markdown markup language in C. It implements all of the language as described in Markdown Syntax and passes the Markdown 1.0 test suite. The RDiscount extension makes the Discount processor available via a Ruby C Extension library.
RDiscount implements the basic protocol popularized by RedCloth and adopted by BlueCloth:
require 'rdiscount' markdown = RDiscount.new("Hello World!") puts markdown.to_html
Inject RDiscount into your BlueCloth-using code by replacing your bluecloth require statements with the following:
begin require 'rdiscount' BlueCloth = RDiscount rescue LoadError require 'bluecloth' end
