For those of us who are real dummies, but fans of Markdown, could you elaborate on where to put what to get MultiMarkdown (MM) to work with Textmate (TM)?

I downloaded MM and stashed it in ~/Library/Application Support/Textmate/Support/bin.
I put MM in ~/Lib ... /Bundles and called it Markdown.pl. I copied a chunk from the demo and tried to preview it. Got lots of "can't find" errors. Maybe I can puzzle this out but if you have a minute or so, a few hints would be really helpful.

Mark,

Good question.  It was mostly for experimental reasons.

Around the time I did this there was lots of chat on ##textmate about
various approaches to go from something like markdown to pdf.
Several people were very anti xslt, and  htmldoc sounded like one of
the favorites at the time, and for smallish kinds of documents
htmldoc seemed like it was quicker and more efficient than

MultiMarkdown -> xhtml -> Latex  -> pdf

For more complicated documents I have had great luck writing the bulk
of my document in multimarkdown and then tweaking the final markup in
the generated latex document.
