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.

Define plain text.  Do you just want it passed through with no changes?
Do you want emphasis?  Do you want indents?  Do you want wrapping?
Wrapping in some places but not others?

Pandoc reads several different formats that look like plain text.

In your case, I'd probably create a couple of files, each with just one
line:

00000.py:
~~~{.python}

ZZZZZZ.py
~~~~

Then use `-f markdown` - that should enclose the whole thing inside a
fenced code block and have it treat the interior as python code.
