  v0.2.1, Markdown rendering in AWK
</h2>

<div class='date'>2024-08-18</div>

<p>Anybody deeply interested in shell scripting will at some point come
across <code>awk</code>. In the spirit of <i>do one thing and do it well</i>, <code>awk</code>
can be defined as a <b>line-oriented</b> processor <b>with state</b>. In
contrast, <code>sed</code> is a line-oriented with rules that provide only a
stateless form.</p>

<p>Rendering of Markdown format combines line-oriented approach with the
need for a state. As a form of an introduction to <code>awk</code>, a
<b>rendering</b> of Markdown is provided as a somewhat useful example.</p>
