I'm looking for a tool or script to convert Markdown files to Dokuwiki format, that will run on a PC.

This is so that I can use MarkdownPad on a PC to create initial drafts of documents, and then convert them to Dokuwiki format, to upload to a Dokuwiki installation that I have no control over. (This means that the Markdown plugin is no use to me.)

I could spend time writing a Python script to do the conversion myself, but I'd like to avoid spending time on this, if such a thing exists already.

The Markdown tags I'd like to have supported/converted are:

  • Heading levels 1 - 5
  • Bold, italic, underline, fixed width font
  • Numbered and unnumbered lists
  • Hyperlinks
  • Horizontal rules

Does such a tool exist, or is there a good starting point available?
