I'm using the script exactly as downloaded from daringfireball.net. Be
sure to put it in the Unix Filters folder, *not* its sibling, the Unix
Scripts folder.

Based on its name, the Unix Scripts folder sounds sensible enough.
When I tried putting Markdown.pl here, it caused a blank window to
open, just like you describe. It also created a blank file called Unix
Script Output in the parent of the scripts folder.
