+## Kohana Markdown ##
+###### *Last edited: Wed, 07 July 2010 (stroppytux)* ######
+
+A text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers for Kohana 3.
+
+Based off the php created by Michel Fortin under the gpl lisense. For more
+information, please refer to:
+<http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/>
+
+Original Markdown concept by John Gruber. Please refer to:
+<http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>
+
+Markdown is a text-to-HTML filter; it translates an easy-to-read /
+easy-to-write structured text format into HTML. Markdown's text format
+is most similar to that of plain text email, and supports features such
+as headers, *emphasis*, code blocks, blockquotes, and links.
+
+Markdown's syntax is designed not as a generic markup language, but
+specifically to serve as a front-end to (X)HTML. You can use span-level
+HTML tags anywhere in a Markdown document, and you can use block level
+HTML tags (like <div> and <table> as well).
+
+For more information about Markdown's syntax, see:
+<http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>
+
+## Installation ##
+
+1. ### Check out the main source ###
+
+	Checkout the main repository from github. In order to do this, you will need
+	a github key configured. Please check the github documentation for more
+	details.
+
+		git clone git@github.com:stroppytux/kohana-markdown.git markdown
+
+
+	This should give you the following (in the markdown directory):
+
+		README.md  classes  config
+
+2. ### Configure Markdown ###
+
+	Copy the configuration file located in markdown/config to your application
+	configuration directory.
+
+		cp modules/markdown/config/markdown.php application/config/
+
+3. ### Enable Markdown ###
+
+	In order to enable the markdown module, edit the application/bootstrap.php
+	file and add and enable the markdown module.
+
+		'markdown'		=> MODPATH.'markdown',		// Markdown module
+
+4. ### Process strings ###
+
+	Now add the markdown transformer in between the value received from the
+	user, and the storage. eg.
+
+		<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');
+		
+		class Model_Description extends Model {
+			
+			public function add($data)
+			{
+				$query = DB::query(Database::INSERT, '
+				INSERT INTO `Descriptions`
+					(`d_title`, `d_description`)
+				VALUES
+					(:title, :description)');
+				
+				/* Sort out the description */
+				$description = Markdown::instance()->transform($data['description']);
+				
+				/* Add the paramaters to the query */
+				$query->param(':title', $data['title']);
+				$query->param(':description', $description);
+				return $query->execute();
+			}
+		}
+
+5. ### Validation rules ###
+
+	TODO: Need to create a regex validation rule for markdown.
