Bö 1.0b2 has been released by Ölbaum and can now be downloaded.

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.

Bö’s syntax is very similar to the Markdown syntax. Please find examples on Ölbaum’s release page in the README of the distribution.

The PHP version of Bö will follow shortly. (See here)
