Tidy Markdown

Beautify Markdown, fixing formatting mistakes and converting basic HTML & Unicode into their Markdown equilivants. Based on the conventions in Carrot Creative's Markdown Styleguide and built on Marked.

Features

• standardize syntatical elements to use a single way of being written (for example, all unordered lists are formatted to start with hyphens, rather than allowing asterisks and/or addition signs to be mixed in).
• fix numbering - making ordered lists count naturally from 1 to n and reference links do the same (based on first occurance).
• make headers move from h1 to smaller without gaps (like an h1 followed by an h4 would be corrected to an h1 followed by an h2).
• decode Unicode characters that have markdown equilivants (like "…" becomes "..." and "—" becomes "--").
• move long or repeated links into the reference links section.
