Python script that converts wikilinks in Markdown files into standard Markdown links

add a tests file to document and demonstrate a few conversions?

This looks great! Glancing at the code, I saw that you parse the input document line-by-line based on Regex at some point, and the script is fairly long (longer than a simple global String replacement! :)), so I guess it contains a couple of syntax checks. That'd be great.

My suggestion is to add a tests file, or maybe even embed the tests if the script is launched without any arguments or a --run-tests flag, or something. I first saw this in http://alanwsmith.com/embedding-a-test-suite-in-a-single-file-ruby-app-part-1 and found that to be a neat pattern for simple CLI scripts where I don't want to create a directory with the script and the tests separately, but still want to document how it behaves.

Anyway, I'd be mostly interested in seeing how

foo `[[bar]` baz 

is handled, and GitHub Flavored Markdown fenced code blocks :)
