Hi,

Currently, the most popular option available on GitHub posts the Markdown to the GitHub API and parses the resulting HTML document and I hope you would agree this is far from a clean solution.

Therefore please, let me say that I sincerely appreciate your contribution, as it addresses an issue I had been facing while trying to find a suitable tool for generating CSV files from Markdown tables.

In terms of future development, do you think it might be worth considering Goldmark as an alternative to Gomarkdown? I am curious to hear your thoughts.

Thanks again for taking the time to read my message. Let's keep the conversation going and work together towards finding the best solution!

I have 1 markdown table to convert so just looking for a textarea somewhere to paste it in and get the CSV. Just a suggestion!

I found this via a google search.

Cool stuff!

• -f, --file
• -o, --output

I will add the patch later.
