I'm running Emacs 24.5. Apropos shows me nothing matching "markdown",
find-library doesn't find a markdown library, and Google shows multiple
markdown mode packages. At the moment I just set text-mode for .md files.
Is there a "one ring to rule them all" for markdown mode? I presume they
understand Markdown syntax to some extent and colorize things in some
non-retina-searing manner. Pick one and be done with it? Continue with
plain old text-mode? Try several (hopefully not)?
Thx,
Skip Montanaro

I use Jason Blevins's `markdown-mode'[1], which you can install from
MELPA.

Multiple? I only know of one:
http://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/
It can be installed through Melpa.
There's also markdown-preview-mode, which is essentially an add-on
for markdown-mode, not a competitor, and there's
markdown-mode+.el, which is also an add-on with some rudimentary
Pandoc support, but given that its last commit is four years old
and Pandoc has evolved quite a bit since then, I wouldn't expect
too much from it.
If you do use Pandoc, you may want to take a look at pandoc-mode,
but caveat emptor, as it's a package maintained by yours truly:

Thanks all. I guess I misread the Google search results. (My brain is a bit
foggy today, running on lack of sleep...) I'll aim for Jason Blevins'
package.
