The module can be used to read Markdown files without being distracted by the MArkdown formatting tags.
Here are some key features of "readmd":
· Command-line Usage: readmd [-w=width] [input_file [output_file]]
· Defaults to trying README.md if no file is specified
· Defaults to width of current terminal if not width is specified
· Specify a width of -1 to have the script bypass text wrapping
· Pretty-prints markdown that will generate the same markup as the original markdown
· Handles all special elements in markdown (headers, lists, block quote, code blocks, horizontal rules)
· Formats sub-elements, e.g., a list within a blockquote
· Converts numbers in ordered lists to properly ascend from one
· Idempotent
