#!/usr/bin/env python3
# This script transforms markdown files into html and (optionally) nroff. The
# output files are written into the current directory named for the input file
# without the .md suffix and either the .html suffix or no suffix.
#
# If the input .md file has a section number at the end of the name (e.g.,
# rsync.1.md) a nroff file is also output (PROJ.NUM.md -> PROJ.NUM).
#
# The markdown input format has one extra extension: if a numbered list starts
# at 0, it is turned into a description list. The dl's dt tag is taken from the
# contents of the first tag inside the li, which is usually a p, code, or
# strong tag.
#
# The cmarkgfm or commonmark lib is used to transforms the input file into
# html. Then, the html.parser is used as a state machine that lets us tweak
# the html and (optionally) output nroff data based on the html tags.
#
# If the string @USE_GFM_PARSER@ exists in the file, the string is removed and
# a github-flavored-markup parser is used to parse the file.
#
# The man-page .md files also get the vars @VERSION@, @BINDIR@, and @LIBDIR@
# substituted. Some of these values depend on the Makefile $(prefix) (see the
# generated Makefile). If the maintainer wants to build files for /usr/local
# while creating release-ready man-page files for /usr, use the environment to
# set RSYNC_OVERRIDE_PREFIX=/usr.
