This module provides a wrapper around various text markup languages.
Available by default are Markdown, reStructuredText and Textile, but you can easily add your own markups.
Usage example:
>>> import markups
>>> markup = markups.get_markup_for_file_name("myfile.rst")
>>> markup.name
'reStructuredText'
>>> markup.attributes[markups.common.SYNTAX_DOCUMENTATION]
'http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html'
>>> text = """
... Hello, world!
... =============
...
... This is an example **reStructuredText** document.
... """
>>> result = markup.convert(text)
>>> result.get_document_title()
'Hello, world!'
>>> print(result.get_document_body()) # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
<div class="document" id="hello-world">
<h1 class="title">Hello, world!</h1>
<p>This is an example <strong>reStructuredText</strong> document.</p>
