Need to patch Python-Markdown for Cygwin

[waylan]

David,

Your patch won't apply to the current code. In fact, this was changed back in 2.0.1. We are currently at 2.0.3 and closing in on a release of 2.1.

Although, it does occur to me that you may have already upgraded. The problem there is that we renamed the script (we had multiple other problems which contributed to the rename) to markdown_py. However, installing the new version won't remove the old script and won't overwrite it because we used a different name. So the newer, corrected, script is also on your system. I suggest deleting the old one and using the new script. Or perhaps you could create a symbolic link with the name of the old script if you like that better.

Thanks for the reply!!! I'm glad it's being maintained, it looks really useful.

No, I've only got version 2.0 installed. I followed the instructions at http://www.freewisdom.org/projects/python-markdown/Installation for *nix systems, and it told me to install version 2.0 (not 2.0.1), so that's what I did. It said that the github version was for people who wanted to live on the edge, and I wasn't looking for the edge :-).

If you want people to use version 2.0.3, you need to fix the instructions at http://www.freewisdom.org/projects/python-markdown/Installation. I could edit that page, but I don't know if that's what you actually intend. Otherwise, people might follow the instructions :-).

Ah, sorry about that. I just removed the specific version number from
that document. should always suggest the most recent version now.
