I currently use a script to create a markdown with this structure:

# filename

```file-extension
file-content
```

# ...

Does your solution have advantages over this?
Btw, is there a table of supported things I can put after the triple `s?
Putting “el”, for example, did not activate EmacsLisp highlighting.

Ps: By plain text, I mean text that always wraps, and keeps its source
indentation. The kind of I thing I’ll see when I use `less` on a file.
