+Feature: Markdown
+  As a hacker who likes to blog
+  I want to be able to make a static site
+  In order to share my awesome ideas with the interwebs
+
+  Scenario: Markdown in list on index
+    Given I have a configuration file with "paginate" set to "5"
+    And I have an "index.html" page that contains "Index - {% for post in site.posts %} {{ post.content }} {% endfor %}"
+    And I have a _posts directory
+    And I have the following post:
+      | title   | date      | content    | type     |
+      | Hackers | 3/27/2009 | # My Title | markdown |
+    When I run jekyll
+    Then the _site directory should exist
+    And I should see "Index" in "_site/index.html"
+    And I should see "<h1 id='my_title'>My Title</h1>" in "_site/2009/03/27/hackers.html"
+    And I should see "<h1>My Title</h1>" in "_site/index.html"
+
+  Scenario: Markdown in pagination on index
+    Given I have a configuration file with "paginate" set to "5"

+    And I have a _posts directory
+    And I have the following post:
+      | title   | date      | content    | type     |
+      | Hackers | 3/27/2009 | # My Title | markdown |
+    When I run jekyll
