Thanks, John! I've never learned any perl, so I can't really parse
what your script is doing, but it's not doing quite what I need. Take
a look at these two files for a before and after view:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/574336/AutoRip-original.md

and

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/574336/AutoRip-numbered.md

Basically, for the first Markdown source/destination pair (the source
in the text, the destination with a URL after the paragraph), the
asterisks need to be replace by 1, and then for the next pair, 2, and
so on, sequentially.

cheers... -Adam
