Previously we used our own homespun formatting. But this
produces over-long lines that aren't ideal for diffs in tests.
Easier to use something off-the-shelf and standard.
Closes#7580.
Performance is slower by about a factor of 10, but this isn't
really a problem because native isn't suitable as a serialization
format. (For serialization you should use json, because the reader
is so much faster than native.)
* Require recent doctemplates. It is more flexible and
supports partials.
* Changed type of writerTemplate to Maybe Template instead
of Maybe String.
* Remove code from the LaTeX, Docbook, and JATS writers that looked in
the template for strings to determine whether it is a book or an
article, or whether csquotes is used. This was always kludgy and
unreliable. To use csquotes for LaTeX, set `csquotes` in your
variables or metadata. It is no longer sufficient to put
`\usepackage{csquotes}` in your template or header includes.
To specify a book style, use the `documentclass` variable or
`--top-level-division`.
* Change template code to use new API for doctemplates.
We can't always tell if it's LaTeX, ConTeXt, or plain TeX.
Better just to use "tex" always.
Also changed:
ConTeXt writer: now outputs raw "tex" blocks as well as "context".
(Closes#969).
RST writer: uses ".. raw:: latex" for "tex" content.
(RST doesn't support raw context anyway.)
Note that if "context" or "latex" specifically is desired,
you can still force that in a markdown document by using
the raw attribute (see MANUAL.txt):
```{=latex}
\foo
```
Note that this change may affect some filters, if they assume that raw
tex parsed by the Markdown reader will be RawBlock (Format "latex").
In most cases it should be trivial to modify the filters to accept
"tex" as well.
This is now the default for pandoc's Markdown.
It allows whitespace between the two parts of a
reference link: e.g.
[a] [b]
[b]: url
This is now forbidden by default.
Closes#2602.
