markdown washing?

markdown washing?

[Fraga, Eric]

Dear all,

I am using rss2email to retrieve mastodon toots.  The resulting email
contents are formatted using markdown, especially for links in the
toots.  Does anybody know of a washing function that will format such
emails more nicely, e.g. with buttons for the links instead of both the
full URL and description?

Thank you,
eric

On other hand watch about rendering the markdown inside the email
instead?

That is what washing does essentially?  But, in any case, any
suggestions on how to do this?

Thank you,

Don't follow what kind of stuff you guys wash but I do this:

(defun gnus-article-wash-more ()
  (article-translate-strings
   '(
     ("#+begin_quote\n"          "")
     ("#+end_quote\n"            "")
     ("#+begin_src emacs-lisp\n" "")
     ("#+begin_src r\n"          "")
     ("#+end_src\n"              "")
     ("--8<---------------cut"                     "")
     ("here---------------end--------------->8---" "")
     ("here---------------start------------->8---" "")
     ("Sendt fra min iPad"                         "")
     ("Sent using Zoho Mail"                       "")
     ("Skickades från E-post för Windows 10"       "")
     ("Skickat från Yahoo Mail för iPhone"         "")
     ("naïve" "naive")
     ("ʼ" "'")
     ("⇒" "→")
     ("➜" "→")
     ("⟦" "[")
     ("⟧" "]")
     ("> > > >" ">>>>")
     ("> > >"   ">>>")
     ("> >"     ">>")
     ("colour"  "color")
     ("・" "·")
     ("　" " ")
     ))
  (gnus-article-strip-multiple-blank-lines) )

(defun gnus-article-prepare-hook-f ()
  (gnus-with-article-buffer
    (gnus-article-wash-more) ))
(add-hook 'gnus-article-prepare-hook #'gnus-article-prepare-hook-f)

Thank you for this.  It might provide the basis for what I need.
