Awesome plugin Brett! Thanks so much for taking the time to put it together and 
making it available freely. Thanks also particularly for this 4.4 update which has
fixed the display issues of the previous version. For anyone who needs the ability
to paste Markdown text into the WordPress text editor then convert it to HTML with
one click — this is the plugin you’re looking for! It works great and can convert
both ways (markdown > html or html > markdown) as well as giving you markdown tags
in the toolbar and adding a heap of auto tagging stuff. I couldn’t be happier with
the plugin and definitely recommend it for anyone who prefers to work with Markdown
text as opposed to typing full HTML. I use this plugin to paste articles written
in Markdown in a separate text editor into WordPress, then convert the Markdown 
to HTML using the ‘Render’ option added by this plugin below the text entry area.
Thanks again, Brett!
