Markdown uses a form very close to how you might write text for an email
message. It works like this:
Leave blank lines between paragraphs.
You can **emphasise** or ****strongly emphasise**** text by placing it
in single or double asterisks.
To create a list, start each line with an asterisk:
* this is my list
* another item
To make a numbered list, start each line with a number (any number will
do) followed by a period:
1. first line
2. second line
2. third line
To create a header, start a line with one or more `#` characters followed
by a space and the header text. The number of `#` characters controls the
size of the header:
# h1
## h2
### h3
#### h4
##### h5
###### h6
To create a horizontal rule, just write three or more dashes or stars on
their own line:
----
To quote someone, prefix the quote with ">":
> To be or not to be,
> that is the question.
To write a code block, indent each line with a tab or 4 spaces:
10 PRINT "Hello, world!"
20 GOTO 10
To link to another web page, or to an email address, you can just put the
url in angle brackets: <http://example.com/>, or you can use the
form [example link text](http://example.com)
