Subject: [PATCH] fix: Zeilen aus nur - oder = als Text maskieren (QA2-08)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Ein Absatz "---" wurde zur Trennlinie, "===" bzw. "---" nach einem
Zeilenumbruch machte die vorige Zeile zur Setext-Überschrift. Solche
Zeilen erhalten jetzt einen Backslash.
