Subject: Provide a Markdown.pl which can optionally be installed
There are people using John Gruber's shell script by shelling out to it. The Text::Markdown dist should prompt you to install a Markdown.pl wrapper on the module (default/unattended answer should be no). Should also provide a wrapper for MultiMarkdown.pl?

Things that shell out to markdown run /usr/bin/markdown. A wrapper using Text::Markdown could easily be written, and this would be useful for backwards compatability. I recommend against making the Makefile.PL prompt about whether to include it BTW. Interactive Makefile.PL just causes problems for distirbutors.

Yep, there's one in my trunk code already, it's going to be in the next release. Show quoted text

If you do it in the right way (using the installer to prompt rather than doing it manually - a non-interactive install just gets the default options), then there isn't a problem here... Cheers Tom

I don't think so? Looking at Markdown-1.0.1 the script name is Markdown.pl Show quoted text

Done in 1.0.17 (script is Markdown.pl) Show quoted text

As noted, getting Module::Install to do this for me means it will do the right thing in situations without a tty..
