Thread: [Python-markdown-discuss] Making urls clickable...

I've been experimenting with python-markdown and it seems neat.  This is the
first time I've used markdown.

I am surprised, especially coming from textile, that markdown won't
automatically turn a text url into an actual clickable url.

Has anyone written an extension that I can use to make url's clickable?

Thanks!

I try to not add to the core script features that aren't part of
Markdown.  If you want, you can bring this up on the main markdown
list.  If they like the idea, I would add it to python-markdown too.

I don't know of anyone who did this as an extension, but this should
be hard to do.  It would be a great exercise for learning how to write
extensions! :)
