Markdent does not allow unbalanced markup events to propagate, and will turn unbalanced events into plain text. .Sp Here is an example: .Sp .Vb 1 \& *em **strong* wtf** .Ve .Sp Dingus turns this into: .Sp .Vb 1 \&

em strong wtf

.Ve .Sp Markdent's HTML output for the same: .Sp .Vb 1 \&

em **strong wtf**

.Ve .Sp Note that with inline HTML, Markdent echoes it more or less as-is, so you can still produce bad HTML with Markdent. .SH BUGS .IX Header "BUGS" See Markdent for bug reporting details. .SH AUTHOR .IX Header "AUTHOR" Dave Rolsky, .SH "COPYRIGHT & LICENSE" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT & LICENSE" Copyright 2009\-2012 Dave Rolsky, All Rights Reserved. .PP This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
