A Markdown NSAttributedString parser.

A Markdown NSAttributedString Parser

This is a Markdown => NSAttributedString parser built on top of a flex parser. It takes an NSString and returns an NSAttributedString with markdown tags replaced by CoreText formatting attributes.

Adding it to your Project

1. Drag all of the files from the src/ directory into your project.
2. Import NSAttributedStringMarkdownParser.h in your project.
3. Create an instance of the parser object and pass it the string you wish to parse.
4. Plug the resulting NSAttributedString into your favorite NSAttributedString label implementation.
