bin

This directory contains scripts used for conversion or handling sources. They are run on a local machine to generate HTML files, which are then commited to the repository for publication on github.io.

• convchars.sh is a sed/tr/shell script converting German umlauts and some other special characters into HTML entities
• mrkdwn.pl is a stripped down version of the original Markdown Perl script (note: needs at least Perl version 5.006)
• poorkyll.sh uses convchars.sh and mrkdwn.pl to generate *.html files from all *.md files in the current directory; it can be given the name of a style file (which must be accessible on the host) for inclusion in the generated HTML files. If you give it the name of a nonexistent style file (like "-h"...) it will print some help/hints, including where it expects the other two scripts.
