Convert TXT JIRA to MKD

The Jira/Confluence Wiki Markup, often stored with a TXT file extension, referred to as Wiki Markup, is used in Atlassian's Jira and Confluence applications for creating and formatting content. It allows users to write text in a simplified markup language, which is then converted into rich text. This format is particularly useful for documentation, linking to specific parts of pages, and embedding macros. Wiki Markup has been a part of Confluence since its early versions, enabling users to easily manage and organize information.

The MKD file extension stands for Markdown Documentation and is used primarily for creating formatted text using plain text. Originating in 2004 by John Gruber, Markdown offers a simple way to write documentation that is easy to read in plain text and can be converted to HTML for web presentation. Its simplicity and readability have made it a popular choice for software documentation, technical writing, and even blogging. The MKD extension supports various formatting options, including headings, lists, links, and code blocks, making them versatile tools in the IT industry.
