The markdown extensions are "mkd" and "markdown".

The exact steps are to enable the setting, checkin a markdown document (with
an "mkd" or "markdown" extension), and then view the checked in document
using the appropriate embedded documenation URL, e.g.:

        http://example.com/doc/trunk/www/index.markdown

Alternatively, the document can be viewed prior to being checked in by using
the special "ckout" name in the URL (i.e. after using "fossil ui"), e.g.:

        http://127.0.0.1:8080/doc/ckout/www/index.markdown

I'm not sure about this.  Perhaps Natacha can shed some light on it?
