org: Markdown export

 
 12.8 Markdown export
 ====================
 
 ‘md’ export back-end generates Markdown syntax(1) for an Org mode
 buffer.
 
    It is built over HTML back-end: any construct not supported by
 Markdown syntax (e.g., tables) will be controlled and translated by
 ‘html’ back-end (SeeHTML export).
 
 Markdown export commands
 ------------------------
 
 ‘C-c C-e m m     (org-md-export-to-markdown)’
      Export as a text file written in Markdown syntax.  For an Org file,
      ‘myfile.org’, the resulting file will be ‘myfile.md’.  The file
      will be overwritten without warning.
 ‘C-c C-e m M     (org-md-export-as-markdown)’
      Export to a temporary buffer.  Do not create a file.
 ‘C-c C-e m o’
      Export as a text file with Markdown syntax, then open it.
 
 Header and sectioning structure
 -------------------------------
 
 Markdown export can generate both ‘atx’ and ‘setext’ types for
 headlines, according to ‘org-md-headline-style’.  The former introduces
 a hard limit of two levels, whereas the latter pushes it to six.
 Headlines below that limit are exported as lists.  You can also set a
 soft limit before that one (SeeExport settings).
