  Description     : libsoldout is a library implementing a parser for the
markdown language

Natacha's flexible C library for markdown, previously known as libupskirt
 libsoldout is a library implementing a parser for the markdown language.
 This package contains

    * libsoldout shared library
    * include files needed to develop program with libsoldout
    * example programs generating HTML,LaTex and man pages from markdown
documents

 This package is useful because it doesn't just transform a markdown document
into
some kind of specific format (HTML, XML, etc.) but enables a developer to build
its
own representation of such a document for its own purposes, for example for the
benefit
of scripting programming languages (Perl, Tcl, Python, etc.). The library is
stable and
maintained by the author, thus once in Debian I presume the maintainance for
this package
will be easy
