-## Known Differences in Output
-
-In most cases, Showdown's output is identical to that of Perl Markdown v1.0.2b7.  What follows is a list of all known deviations.  Please file an issue if you find more.
-
-  * This release uses the HTML parser from Markdown 1.0.2b2,
-    which means it fails `Inline HTML (Advanced).text` from
-    the Markdown test suite:
-
-        <div>
-        <div>
-        unindented == broken
-        </div>
-        </div>
-
-  * Showdown doesn't support the markdown="1" attribute:
-
-        <div markdown="1">
-             Markdown does *not* work in here.
-        </div>
-
-    This is half laziness on my part and half stubbornness.
-    Markdown is smart enough to process the contents of span-
-    level tags without screwing things up; shouldn't it be
-    able to do the same inside block elements?  Let's find a
-    way to make markdown="1" the default.
-
-
-  * You can only nest square brackets in link titles to a
-    depth of two levels:
-
-        [[fine]](http://www.attacklab.net/)
-        [[[broken]]](http://www.attacklab.net/)
-
-    If you need more, you can escape them with backslashes.
-
-
-  * When sublists have paragraphs, Showdown produces equivalent
-    HTML with a slightly different arrangement of newlines:
-
-        + item
-
-             - subitem
-
-               The HTML has a superfluous newline before this
-               paragraph.
-
-             - subitem
-
-               The HTML here is unchanged.
-
-             - subitem
-
-               The HTML is missing a newline after this
-               list subitem.
-
-
-
-  * Markdown.pl creates empty title attributes for
-    inline-style images:
-
-        Here's an empty title on an inline-style
-        ![image](http://w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml10).
-
-    I tried to replicate this to clean up my diffs during
-    testing, but I went too far: now Showdown also makes
-    empty titles for reference-style images:
-
-        Showdown  makes an empty title for
-        reference-style ![images][] too.
-
-        [images]: http://w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml10
-
-
-  * With crazy input, Markdown will mistakenly put
-    `<strong>` or `<em>` tags in URLs:
-
-        <a href="<*Markdown adds em tags in here*>">
-           improbable URL
-        </a>
-
-    Showdown won't.  But still, don't do that.
-

-## Creating Markdown Extensions
-
-A showdown extension is simply a function which returns an array of extensions.  Each single extension can be one of two types:
-
-  * Language Extension -- Language extensions are ones that that add new markdown syntax to showdown.  For example, say you wanted `^^youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0` to automatically render as an embedded YouTube video, that would be a language extension.
-  * Output Modifiers -- After showdown has run, and generated HTML, an output modifier would change that HTML.  For example, say you wanted to change `<div class="header">` to be `<header>`, that would be an output modifier.
-
-Each extension can provide two combinations of interfaces for showdown.
-
-### Regex/Replace
-
-Regex/replace style extensions are very similar to Javascript's `string.replace` function.  Two properties are given, `regex` and `replace`.  `regex` is a string and `replace` can be either a string or a function.  If `replace` is a string, it can use the `$1` syntax for group substitution, exactly as if it were making use of `string.replace` (internally it does this actually);  The value of `regex` is assumed to be a global replacement.
-
-**Example:**
-
-```js
-var demo = function(converter) {
-  return [
-    // Replace escaped @ symbols
-    { type: 'lang', regex: '\\@', replace: '@' }
-  ];
-}
-```
-
-### Filter
-
-Alternately, if you'd just like to do everything yourself, you can specify a filter which is a callback with a single input parameter, text (the current source text within the showdown engine).
-
-**Example:**
-
-```js
-var demo = function(converter) {
-  return [
-    // Replace escaped @ symbols
-    { type: 'lang', filter: function(text) {
-      return text.replace(/\\@/g, '@');
-    }}
-  ];
-}
-```
-
-### Implementation Concerns
-
-One bit which should be taken into account is maintaining both client-side and server-side compatibility.  This can be achieved with a few lines of boilerplate code.  First, to prevent polluting the global scope for client-side code, the extension definition should be wrapped in a self-executing function.
-
-```js
-(function(){
-  // Your extension here
-}());
-```
-
-Second, client-side extensions should add a property onto `Showdown.extensions` which matches the name of the file.  As an example, a file named `demo.js` should then add `Showdown.extensions.demo`.  Server-side extensions can simply export themselves.
-
-```js
-(function(){
-  var demo = function(converter) {
-    // ... extension code here ...
-  };
-
-  // Client-side export
-  if (typeof window !== 'undefined' && window.Showdown && window.Showdown.extensions) { window.Showdown.extensions.demo = demo; }
-  // Server-side export
-  if (typeof module !== 'undefined') module.exports = demo;
-}());
-```
-
-### Testing Extensions
-
-The showdown test runner is setup to automatically test cases for extensions.  To add test cases for an extension,
-create a new folder under `./test/extensions` which matches the name of the `.js` file in `./src/extensions`.
-Place any test cases into the folder using the md/html format and they will automatically be run when tests are run.
