I've tried (but failed), with Julia 0.4, to use Markdown strings doc" . . 
." as messages, e.g., error messages or just to make some complex program 
output more readable.

If, in a REPL or IJulia, I just write 
   doc"blah `code` bleh"
in a single line, then this shows ok. But of course in a function or 
script, it will just generate an object of type `Base.Markdown.MD`, without 
output.

[1] Question: how can I actually send it to the output, correctly formatted?

[2] Suggestion: could `print`, `println`, `error` etc automatically 
interpret markdown strings and output them accordingly?

[3] Question: why doc" . . ." and not md" . . ." ? Could these at least be 
used synonymously?

Thanks,
Christoph
