| # pandoc to do the conversion. | |
| # | |
| # 1. Install pandoc from http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/ | |
| # 2. Copy this script into the directory containing the .html files | |
| # 3. Ensure that the script has execute permissions | |
| # 4. Run the script | |

| # By default this will keep the original .html file | |
| FILES="*.html" | |
| for f in $FILES | |
| do | |
| # extension="${f##*.}" | |
| filename="${f%.*}" | |
| echo "Converting $f to $filename.md" | |
| pandoc $f -f html -t markdown -o $filename.md | |
| # uncomment this line to delete the source file. | |
