Markdown in Emacs

[Shug Boabby]

Hi everyone,

I would appreciate if people could reply with comments on what they are
using for writing/editing Markdown text files
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown], as it is quickly becoming my
document preparation format of choice (with export to almost every
machine readable format known to exist, and extensions to allow LaTeX
equations, without the headache of LaTeX commands for everything else).

Regards,
Shug
