Usage Instructions

Install it, and then…

2. In Chrome/Firefox/Safari/Opera, log into your Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo account and start a new email. In Thunderbird, start a new message.
3. Make sure you're using the rich editor.
   • In Gmail, click the "Rich formatting" link, if it's visible.
   • In Thunderbird, make sure "Compose messages in HTML format" is enabled in your "Account Settings", "Composition & Addressing" pane.
4. Compose an email in Markdown. For example:

   Hello world.


   alert('Hello syntax highlighting.');





Right-click in the compose box and choose the "Markdown Toggle" item from the context menu. Or click the button that appears in your address bar. Or use the hotkey (CTRL+ALT+M by default).
You should see your email rendered correctly from Markdown into rich HTML.
