How to import content in markdown format? I have text in markdown format. How should I go about importing this into my site? I would think a Feeds Tamper plugin to convert markdown to html would be ideal.

Does such a thing exist? Is there a straightforward way to convert markdown to html in Drupal?
Why complicate things by importing markdown? If html format is what is desired, there are many options to convert it beforehand. For example this simple python implementation.

As tenken suggested, Markdown filter is an option to consider.
