Allow the use of 100% markdown documents
Created by: tautologico
There is some support for markdown inside a specific tag, and depending on an external processor.Some people may feel the XML markup of stog is a bit heavy if you want to concentrate more on writing content (it's definitely my case), so I think it would be good to have full support for markdown-only documents, ideally without needing an external processor. Most other static site generators support a lighter markup format (often markdown).
One possibility would be to look to the file extension and if it is .md or .mdown, translate the markdown syntax to the standard stog XML notation, which shouldn't be too hard. For inclusion of tags in markdown files some additional notation could be used, like YAML. Other static site generators use markdown + yaml (jekyll itself and many similar programs).
