        # Manifesto
        Taking notes using Markdown makes it easier for sharing on GitHub, but GitHub doesn't display Latex-style mathematics in `.md` files. A good workaround is to write Markdown in Jupyter notebooks and share the `.ipynb` files on GitHub, since everything inside is usually rendered properly. However, it is easier to take notes on a local text editor such as VSCode with Markdown support, becuase it automatically generates and updates the table of content, and you don't have to run a notebook server to take notes.
        
        This package is quite simple, all it does it to create a Jupyter notebook and paste the content of one file into a Markdown block in this notebook. But the author decided to make it a package because of the encouraging [talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIF3LaRqgXo) by Mark Smith at EuroPython 2019.
        
        # Installation
        ```bash
        $ # install using:
        $ python -m pip install md2nb
        $
        $ # to verify installation and show help:
        $ md2nb
        ```
        
        # Usage
        The simplest example - in the root directory of this repo:
        ```bash
        $ md2nb --dir . -r
        Converting '.md' files within ./ and all subdirectories:
        	./README.md
        	./test/example.md
        	./test/example-gB18030.md
        ```
        
        In short, use `md2nb PATH_TO_FILE1 PATH_TO_FILE2`, or `md2nb --dir PATH_TO_DIRECTORY1 PATH_TO_DIRECTORY2`. There are two recommended ways of using `md2nb`:
        1. `md2nb` converts all files with `--ext` specified extensions in the `--dir` specified directories into `.ipynb` files with a single Markdown block. For example:
            ```bash
            # to convert all Markdown and text files in the current directory and all of its subdirectories
            $ md2nb --dir . -r --ext .md .txt
            ```
        2. `md2nb` converts all files identified by their file paths. For example:
            ```bash
            # to convert all Markdown files in the current directory and all of its subdirectories
            $ md2nb *.md -r
            ```
        3. In fact, these two ways can be combined. For example:
            ```bash
            # to convert README, LICENSE, all .md and .txt files in . and ./doc/
            $ md2nb README LICENSE --dir . doc --ext .md .txt
            ```
