How this pair works
Your Plain text file is parsed into a canonical screenplay model (by verified content, not just the file extension), then rendered as Markdown. Markdown background: Markdown (2004, John Gruber) became the lingua franca of plain-text formatting on the web — GitHub, Reddit, and half the writing apps on earth speak it.
