I don't understand what you mean. Could you also explain the negativity around this comment? I didn't think it was a badly voiced opinion, and karma is not meant to be used to show how much you agree or disagree with someone.

I had no right to downvote your reply. (even now) ;) Please take it easy. I just want to say that using C library is not always preferred.

I agree, but I did not mean to make any sweeping statement in that regard, but in the case of a standardised markup like markdown, there are already suites of field-tested C libraries that provide much better speed than this library would; for markdown content, this provides a better experience for your users.

Agree, too. Well, plain text sucks. So I like to use smiley symbols now. ;-)
