* `options.url` **{String}**: Specify the url to be used. Defaults to "https://github.com"
* `options.title` **{String|Function}**: Specify the title to be used. May be a function that takes the parsed @ mention and returns a title string.
* `options.renderer` **{String|Function}**: Specify the link renderer to use. Must be a rendered on the [renderers](#renderers) object. May be a function that takes the mention, url, and title to be rendered. Defaults to "md".
* `returns` **{String}**: Transformed string with @ mentions as links.
**Example**
```js
// defaults to github urls
console.log(toMention('- @doowb\n- @jonschlinkert'));
//=> - [doowb](https://github.com/doowb)
//=> - [jonschlinkert](https://github.com/jonschlinkert)
// use custom url
console.log(toMention('- @doowb\n- @jonschlinkert', {url: 'https://twitter.com'}));
//=> - [doowb](https://twitter.com/doowb)
//=> - [jonschlinkert](https://twitter.com/jonschlinkert)
```
## Renderers
Renderers are functions that take the mention, a url, and an optional title and return a formatted link string.
Included renders are "md" and "html". "md" is provided by [markdown-link](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/markdown-link). Additional renderers may be added and used
by passing their name on the `options.renderer` option.
