Thank you very much for sharing, that looks very promising. Pandoc can't run the script though, says it can't find the utils package. I installed luarocks and with it lua-utils but the error prevails: $ pandoc multi-test.md -t html-multi-writer.lua -o output/multi-test.html Error running Lua: html-multi-writer.lua:21: module 'utils' not found: no field package.preload['utils'] no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.4/utils.lua' no file '/usr/local/share/lua/5.4/utils/init.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.4/utils.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.4/utils/init.lua' no file './utils.lua' no file './utils/init.lua' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.4/utils.so' no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.4/loadall.so' no file './utils.so' stack traceback: html-multi-writer.lua:21: in main chunk P.S.: would you consider creating a repository for this work? I would like to automate the second stage with bash, shouldn't be too hard.
