A small feature is missing in the handling of figures. The markdown syntax[1] states
that figures are specified as follows:
![Alt text](/path/to/img.jpg)
Pandoc, when translating from markdown to latex/context, treats the alt-text as
the figure caption. ConTeXt, just ignores the alt text. I would suggest changing
the c_image function to (not completely sure about this)
local function c_image(lab,src,tit)
return {
"\\placemarkdownfigure{",
lab,
"}",
"{",
"\\externalfigure[",
src,
"]",
"}"
}
end
where \placemarkdownfigure is a new type of float. I have not used any optional
argument to \placemarkdownfigure so that the options can be set using
\setupfloat. The default setup could be
\setupfloat[markdownfigure][default={here,nonumber}]
What do others think?
