Emacs markdown-mode error on preview: “bin / bash: markdown: command not found”

Question

I am using emacs 24 on fedora 17. I installed markdown-mode, but whenever I try to export a file by typing C-c C-c m or C-c C-c p in emacs

Answer 1

You just need to pick and install a markdown parser:

• rdiscount (gem install rdiscount).
• python2-markdown (yum install python-markdown2)
• or some other.

Then, in emacs:

M-x customize-mode RET markdown-mode

Set 'Markdown Command' to the name of the executable you installed -- for example, rdiscount or /usr/bin/markdown2.
