Pandoc is a [Haskell] library for converting from one markup format
|
|
to another, and a command-line tool that uses this library. It can read
|
|
[markdown] and (subsets of) [reStructuredText], [HTML], and [LaTeX],
|
|
and it can write [markdown], [reStructuredText], [HTML], [LaTeX], [RTF],
|
|
and [S5] HTML slide shows. Pandoc's version of markdown contains some
|
|
enhancements, like footnotes and embedded LaTeX.
|
|
|
|
In contrast to existing tools for converting markdown to HTML, which
|
|
use regex substitutions, Pandoc has a modular design: it consists of a
|
|
set of readers, which parse text in a given format and produce a native
|
|
representation of the document, and a set of writers, which convert
|
|
this native representation into a target format. Thus, adding an input
|
|
or output format requires only adding a reader or writer.
