An extension library around Fletcher Penney's MultiMarkdown library in C. It is based upon the ruby rpeg-markdown and rpeg-multimarkdown libraries by Ryan Tomayko and Oliver "djungelvral".
>> require 'rmultimarkdown'
>> MultiMarkdown.new('Hello, world.').to_html
#=> "<p>Hello, world.</p>"
>> MultiMarkdown.new('_Hello World!_', :smart, :filter_html).to_html
#=> "<p><em>Hello World!</em></p>"
>> MultiMarkdown.new('_Hello World!_').to_latex
#=> "\emph{Hello World!}"
>> doc = MultiMarkdown.new("Title: Some document \n\nSome text in the document")
>> doc.metadata
#=> {"title" => "Some document"}
>> doc.metadata("Title")
#=> "Some document"
