Basic Markup

Basic Markup is a very basic markup-to-HTML conversion library. It lets you create easy to read web pages without writing verbose HTML. Basic Markup supports the following:

Headings
Bold text
Nested bullet lists
Control of excessive blank lines

WARNING

Basic Markup is a dead project. You should use the SimpleMarkup class in the Ruby standard library instead.

Usage

The call to BasicMarkup.markup takes two parameters. The first is the markup text to convert to HTML. The second is a boolean indicating if you wish to surround the converted HTML with <html> tags, making a complete HTML page.

require 'basic_markup'
html = BasicMarkup.markup("Text to markup", true)

Sample Markup Text

--This is a level 1 header-- With some text ---This is a level 2 header--- With some text ----This is a level 3 header---- With some text --Text Formatting-- Here is a line with some **bolded text**. Fancy, huh? --New Line Insertion-- This should be on a new line. This should be on a new line too. With some text Here is some more text
