Thank you, Fletcher. Putting the script into the Scripts folder
works without side effects. :)
I also found that a reduced, stdin/stdout-ish version of the filter
(without cd "$(dirname "$BB_DOC_PATH")" and an -o target file), i.e.
pandoc --from markdown --to html --toc --standalone "${BB_DOC_PATH}"
… returns Pandoc’s output to the current window, allowing for in-place
conversion. Nice!
