# Steps:
#
#  1. Download corresponding html file for some README.md:
#       curl -s $1
#
#  2. Discard rows where no substring 'user-content-' (github's markup):
#       awk '/user-content-/ { ...
#
#  3.1 Get last number in each row like ' ... </span></a>sitemap.js</h1'.
#      It's a level of the current header:
#       substr($0, length($0), 1)
#
#  3.2 Get level from 3.1 and insert corresponding number of spaces before '*':
#       sprintf("%*s", substr($0, length($0), 1)*2, " ")
#
#  4. Find head's text and insert it inside "* [ ... ]":
#       substr($0, match($0, /a>.*<\/h/)+2, RLENGTH-5)
#
#  5. Find anchor and insert it inside "(...)":
#       substr($0, match($0, "href=\"[^\"]+?\" ")+6, RLENGTH-8)
