`echomd` is a lightweight Markdown‑style formatter that converts plain text into richly styled output for command‑line terminals. It supports cross‑platform visual cues such as bold, underline, dim, colors, headers, lists, quotes and simple code blocks, and is available both as a Perl script and an npm‑installable Node.js module. The tool is aimed at developers and sysadmins who want readable, highlighted documentation or logs directly in their shell consoles.
