- Added commonmark as an input format.
- Added `Text.Pandoc.Readers.CommonMark.readCommonMark`.
- For now, we use the markdown writer to generate benchmark
text for the CommonMark reader. We can change this when we
get a writer.
Issue #1977
Most markdown processors support the [shortcut format] for reference links.
Pandoc's markdown reader parsed this shortcuts unoptionally.
Pandoc's markdown writer (with --reference-links option) never shortcutted links.
This commit adds an extension `shortcut_reference_links`. The extension is
enabled by default for those markdown flavors that support reading shortcut
reference links, namely:
- pandoc
- strict pandoc
- github flavoured
- PHPmarkdown
If extension is enabled, reader parses the shortcuts in the same way as
it preveously did. Otherwise it would parse them as normal text.
If extension is enabled, writer outputs shortcut reference links unless
doing so would cause problems (see test cases in `tests/Tests/Writers/Markdown.hs`).
GFM and PHP Markdown Extra pipe tables require headers.
Previously pandoc allowed pipe tables not to include headers,
and produced headerless pipe tables in Markdown output, but this
was based on a misconception about pipe table syntax. This
commit fixes this.
Note: If you have been using headerless pipe tables, this may
cause existing tables to break.
Closes#1996.
Removed outdated claim that pandoc will look in the user data
directory if a relative path is specified and the file is not
found locally. Closes#1572.
This allows users to turn off the default pandoc behavior of
parsing contents of div and span tags in markdown and HTML
as native pandoc Div blocks and Span inlines.
Setting of default epub extensions has been moved from the EPUB
reader to Text.Pandoc.
This has been documented to affect the epub and docx readers, so
we should either add the epub reader before the next release or
change the documentation.
These can be set to get `\listoftables` and `\listoffigures`.
Closes#1407.
At this point we won't add a command line argument, because
this only affects one writer. But the variables can be set
at the command line with
-Vlof -Vlot
or in YAML metadata.
