Oh, I see -- a specification in the style of "only perl can parse perl."
But then these "most implementations" are not implementations of "standard Markdown," hence my confusion.
All universal programming languages (assembler, C, CLIP, Lisp, Cobol, Python, Java) can parse perl as well.
Only if they implement Perl, perfectly mimicking the functionality of
perl(the only spec for Perl). Amongst other difficulties, Perl has available the full power of Perl at the preprocessing stage.That doesn't matter, kind of like non-paperclips.
