fiddlosopher 858269dd20 Changes to Texinfo writer:
+ No space between paragraph and following @verbatim (provides more
  pleasing appearance in text formats)
+ Blank line consistently after list environments.
+ Removed deVerb.
+ Use @code instead of @verb for inline code (this solves the character
  escaping problem for texi2dvi and texi2pdf).
+ Modified test suite accordingly.
+ Added Peter Wang to copyright statement (for Texinfo.hs).
+ Added news of Texinfo writer to README.
+ Added Texinfo to list of formats in man page, and removed extra 'groff'.
+ Updated macports with Texinfo format.
+ Updated FreeBSD pkg-descr with Texinfo format.
+ Updated web page with Texinfo writer.
+ Added demos for Texinfo writer.
+ Added Texinfo to package description in debian/control.
+ Added texi & texinfo extensions to Main.hs, and fixed bug in determining
  default output extension.
+ Changed from texinfo to texi extension in web demo.

Pandoc is a command-line tool for converting from one markup format
to another. It can read markdown and (subsets of) reStructuredText,
HTML, and LaTeX, and it can write markdown, reStructuredText, HTML,
LaTeX, ConTeXt, DocBook, RTF, GNU Texinfo, groff man pages, and S5 HTML
slide shows.
Pandoc extends standard markdown syntax with footnotes, embedded LaTeX,
and other features. A compatibility mode is provided for those who
need a drop-in replacement for Markdown.pl. Included wrapper scripts
make it easy to convert markdown documents to PDFs and to convert web
pages to markdown documents.
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.
