# Process a single Markdown file
sszig --file input.md
sszig -f input.md
# Process an entire directory
sszig --dir content/
sszig -d content/When processing a single file, SSziG creates an output/ directory in the current working directory:
sszig -f my-document.mdInput: my-document.md
Output: output/my-document.html
When processing a directory, SSziG recursively processes all .md files and maintains the directory structure:
sszig -d content/Example structure:
content/
├── index.md
├── about.md
└── blog/
├── post1.md
└── post2.md
Output:
public/
├── index.html
├── about.html
└── blog/
├── post1.html
└── post2.html
The following features are not supported:
- Raw HTML blocks
- superscript
- Nested code blocks
- Escape sequences
- Some other delimiters that I may not have encountered yet
- Only
.mdfiles are processed - Files without extensions are skipped
- Non-markdown files are ignored with a skip message
