I'm curious, what is "markdown" and why one ever needs to print it? ;)

Windows minimals installer

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hi!

I just noticed that --extras tag was replaced with  --modules. This 
leads to changes in my Windows installer code.

BTW, does anyone uses my installer? I have got no suggestions or 
feedback yet. ;)

Some kind of simple ascii tagging.

As it concerned an api specification I wanted to have something readable 
instead of staring at an text file.

Markdown is also referred to as a markup language. There is also a
Wikipedia article about Markdown [1].

markdown

[Hans Hagen]

Hi,

As it happened that I needed to print a readme.markdown file, the new 
beta now has a new extra:

   context --extra=markdown readme.markdown

For some options see:

   context --extra=markdown --help

It will never look real good, but it's better than printing verbatim.

Hans

\setupmarkdown[rule=\...] would fir better in the normal setup concept of ConTeXt
but as this would be the only setting for \setupmarkdown it can wait till John
had more time to play with the module and find missing features.

m-markdown.mkiv

\definedelimitedtext
  [markdownblockquote]
- [markdownquotation]
+ [quotation] % blockquote

How about a parameter to change the output of the rule:

%\unexpanded\def\markdownrule
%  {\hairline\par}

\unexpanded\def\markdownrule
  {\markdownparameter\c!rule}

I uploaded a beta with a markdown module. Not being a user myself I 
leave it to others to provide documentation and examples.

\starttext
     \startmarkdown
     % some examples needed
     \stopmarkdown
\stoptext

The code is derived from luamark (but a few 100% faster so I might have 
messed up). And of course, being the markdown evangelist, John will 
answer all questions.

Can you then also add a few features:

- Headings use \startstructurelevel
- Paragraphs are enclosed in startparagraph/stopparagraph
- emphasis and bold styles use \definehiglight command

to make it possible to change the layout of markdown documents
where ConTeXt is only used to produce a PDF.

Wolfgang

That would be great! That was my intent when I started hacking lunamrk
to include a ConTeXt writer, by due to lack of time I never managed to
do the ConTeXt module part.

Markdown, in its official form, does not seem to evolve very much. However,
there are extensions to the original syntax, such as those provided by
Pandoc (including nice new reference functionalities) and also the Python
Markdown processor.

Anyway, this is great news! Can't wait to see it in action :)

[Hans Hagen]

Hi Khaled,

I took a look at the lunamark code, and ran it on some (copied) sample. 
As it was much slower than I'd expected from lpeg I messed around a 
little and could bring down the runtime on the sample from 2 sec to 0.1 
sec. Anyhow, there is room for improvement so I wonder If I should take 
the code, wrap it up a bit, and make a module so that we can directly 
process markdown in context. (Of course we then need to keep an eye on 
how the original develops, if mkdown develops at all.)

Hans
