Re: Moving on. A basic para

Markdown test runner, initial pass:

Sorry about the ugly giant table.

Right now I've got 9 markdown parsers running on the VM, because I've only
had a few hours to spend on this. As time goes on I'll keep adding more.
The most obvious early takeaway is that the smaller, less-used
implementations have many small differences in how they parse and output.
lunamark, for instance, doesn't recognize EOF as a paragraph terminator,
apparently. markdown.bash outputs lots of extra newlines. Many parsers
don't trim leading or trailing spaces.
