# Maintainer: Darks
# Disclaimer: this script has been done as a quick n' dirty way to convert
# markdown to Planète Casio's BBcode. As it, it does support only those
# features:
#  - # H1 title
#  - ## H2 title
#  - ### H3 title
#  - *emphasis text*
#  - **strong text**
#  - [link](https://domain.tld)
#  - {{ tableofcontents }}
#
# More features may be added in the future, but this script is provided as it.
