Adding text of the format

Apple
:   Pomaceous fruit of plants of the genus Malus in 
    the family Rosaceae.
:   An american computer company.

Orange
:   The fruit of an evergreen tree of the genus Citrus.

Does not result in expected HTML as described in the MultiMarkdown Syntax Guide:

Should be

<dl xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<dt>Apple</dt>
 <dd>
   <p>Pomaceous fruit of plants of the genus Malus in 
      the family Rosaceae.</p>
 </dd>
 <dd>
   <p>An american computer company.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Orange</dt>
 <dd>
  <p>The fruit of an evergreen tree of the genus Citrus.</p>
 </dd>
</dl>

But instead it gives:

<p>Apple
 :   Pomaceous fruit of plants of the genus Malus in 
     the family Rosaceae.
 :   An american computer company.</p>

<p>Orange
:   The fruit of an evergreen tree of the genus Citrus.</p>

ikiwiki's markdown support does not include support for multimarkdown by default. If you want to enable that, you can turn on the multimarkdown option in the setup file. --Joey

Sorry, I should have indicated, I have multimarkdown enabled:

# mdwn plugin
# enable multimarkdown features?
multimarkdown => 1,

Other features appear to be working, tables and footnotes for instance. See current install: http://wiki.infosoph.org

Ok, in that case it's a bug in the perl module. Forwarded to http://github.com/bobtfish/text-markdown/issues#issue/6 --Joey
