Converting files from meta-Markdown to Yamldown

Replace the first line of the file with ---:

ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i '1s/^/---\n/'

Replace the first blank line with ---:

ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i '0,/^$/{s/^$/---\n/}'

(In the range between 0 and the first blank line (inclusive) replace blank lines with ---)

Convert header data:

ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(Title: \)/\L\1/'
ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(Date: \)/\L\1/'
ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(Tags: \)/\L\1/'
ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(Authors: \)/\L\1/'
ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(Summary: \)/\L\1/'
ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i -e 's/\(updated: \)/\L\1/'

Delete unneeded header data:

ls *md | xargs -n 1 sed -i '/Category: .*/d'
