This script leverages two other free utilities: 7-zip and wget.

Mandown syntax follows all the rules of Markdown (as implemented by the Showdown Javascript port) with the exceptions detailed below. The exceptions (they’re a feature, not a bug, really!) exist to offer a portable, web-centric documentation format.

The design goals are:

  • Run-time Rendering - the power/simplicity of Markdown without build-time compiling (dynamic Markdown to HTML happens client-side via Javascript acting on the Mandown source).
  • Portability: Can run from desktop OS file browser (local drive or network file share) or any web server of choice—as is.
  • “Baked-in” Screenshot UI features.
  • Human Readable Source Displayed in the Browser viewport if scripting is disabled or not supported.
