feature request: github flavored markdown?

Opened this issue · 2 comments

It would be cool to have an option to have github flavored markdown as an option for the slides.

That way, slides could be simply put on github and viewed directly as markdown (for sharing the presentation after the slides).

Just an idea. I managed to just copy my slides and make github friendly versions afterward, which wasn't too painful.

man, i really like this idea. i would have to make sure it's pretty backward compatible - i think the redcarpet stuff differs a bit.

The biggest thing for me would be detecting syntax hints using backtick quotes, e.g.

    @@@ ruby
    # some ruby

being interchangeable with

```ruby
# some ruby
```
