I'm using the script exactly as downloaded from daringfireball.net. Be sure to put it in the Unix Filters folder, *not* its sibling, the Unix Scripts folder.

Based on its name, the Unix Scripts folder sounds sensible enough. When I tried putting Markdown.pl here, it caused a blank window to open, just like you describe. It also created a blank file called Unix Script Output in the parent of the scripts folder.

@Tom Humiston: I'm not at home right now, but I had tried to install via the method you did for TextWrangler and when I attempted to use it all I got back was an empty page so I figured I had done something wrong. Did you need to do anything to the script to get it to work?

TextWrangler: I dropped the Markdown 1.0.1 Perl script into ~/ Library/Application Support/TextWrangler/Unix Support/Unix Filters/

I renamed it "Convert Markdown to HTML" for a friendlier menu name, and to distinguish it from another script that converts HTML to Markdown.

If anyone knows how to do it, I'd like to see a Markdown item on Mac OS X's Services menu, so that I can reach it from TextEdit or wherever. Ditto for Markdown Extra.

ThisService is your friend:

"Tools that, although not written specifically for ThisService, happen to work just fine when fed to ThisService"... markdown is one of them.
