Glad to see that the Markdown support has made it into trunk. Documentation for the setting states the following:

   markdown         If enabled (and Fossil was compiled with markdown
                    support), the markdown engine will be used to render
                    embedded documentation conforming to the appropriate
                    content types (e.g. "text/x-markdown"). Default: off.


This isn't entirely helpful. When exactly is a document of type text/x-markdown? When it has a .md extension? .markdown? .mdwn? Is there some other setting that controls this?

It might be more helpful to change this verbiage to the exact steps necessary to enable Markdown processing, rather than this vague statement about content-types. Or, at least, add something stating when a document is determined to have this content-type.

Also, there are a bunch of variants in MD syntax. Is there a link to what is supported in the embedded engine? Is it just vanilla, or any extensions for tables/TOCs/etc.?

Thanks.
