it is little annoying to have different extension for markdown, though I hacked a little bit, and I still hope pandoc can support/align with gfm as well.

Github Flavored Markdown starts to be popular and one of the important extension for markdown, will be nice if pandoc can align with it, or extended from it as well.

And in somehow, it is great Github that can understand pandoc extension little bit for example code syntax hightlight

~~~~~~~~~~ {.bash}
# this format is pandoc extension, and github can use it by detecting bash only
$ ls -al # this is comments
~~~~~~~~~~~~
