After the succesful launch of [Bö][], Perl edition, I am pelased to announce the immediate availability of the Bö plugin for [WordPress][]. It can be [downloaded here][].
[Bö][] is a preprocessor for [John Gruber's][] [Markdown][], a text-to-HTML filter that translates an
easy-to-read / easy-to-write structured text format into
HTML.
Its primary (and currently only) purpose is to add smart footnote functionality to
Markdown.
Credits to [Ölbaum][] for the Perl coding (He did the brain-work, I barely *translated* to PHP).
## Revision History ##
* 1.0b2 — First public release.
* 1.0b3 — Fixed a bug with globals. Footnotes will not be duplicated anymore.

You wouldn’t still have a copy of the Perl version around, would you? Ölbaum’s seems to be offline at the moment.

Hi Adders,
I’ve put Bö back up on my temporary back-up web site. Thanks for your interest.
