Changes since 1.0.1b1:

+   Fixed annoying bug where nested lists would wind up with
    spurious (and invalid) `<p>` tags.

+   Changed _StripLinkDefinitions() so that link definitions must
    occur within three spaces of the left margin. Thus if you indent
    a link definition by four spaces or a tab, it will now be a code
    block.

+   You can now write empty links:

        [like this]()
    
    and they'll be turned into anchor tags with empty href attributes.
    This should have worked before, but didn't.

+   `***this***` and `___this___` are now turned into

        <strong><em>this</em></strong>

    Instead of
    
        <strong><em>this</strong></em>
    
    which isn't valid. (Thanks to Michel Fortin for the fix.)

+   Added a new substitution in EncodeCode(): s/\$/&#036;/g; This
    is only for the benefit of Blosxom users, because Blosxom
    (sometimes?) interpolates Perl scalars in your article bodies.
