Plain text readers are exposed to lua scripts via the `pandoc.reader`
submodule, which is further subdivided by format. Converting e.g. a
markdown string into a pandoc document is possible from within lua:
doc = pandoc.reader.markdown.read_doc("Hello, World!")
A `read_block` convenience function is provided for all formats,
although it will still parse the whole string but return only the first
block as the result.
Custom reader options are not supported yet, default options are used
for all parsing operations.
* New module: Text.Pandoc.Writers.Ms.
* New template: default.ms.
* The writer uses texmath's new eqn writer to convert math
to eqn format, so a ms file produced with this writer
should be processed with `groff -ms -e` if it contains
math.
* Add `--lua-filter` option. This works like `--filter` but takes pathnames of special lua filters and uses the lua interpreter baked into pandoc, so that no external interpreter is needed. Note that lua filters are all applied after regular filters, regardless of their position on the command line.
* Add Text.Pandoc.Lua, exporting `runLuaFilter`. Add `pandoc.lua` to data files.
* Add private module Text.Pandoc.Lua.PandocModule to supply the default lua module.
* Add Tests.Lua to tests.
* Add data/pandoc.lua, the lua module pandoc imports when processing its lua filters.
* Document in MANUAL.txt.
These were confusing.
Now we rely on the +raw_tex or +raw_html extension with latex
or html input.
Thus, instead of
--parse-raw -f latex
we use
-f latex+raw_tex
and instead of
--parse-raw -f html
we use
-f html+raw_html
