Pandoc 2.0 and slides

Pandoc 2.0 and slides

[Conrad Cunningham]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1327 bytes --]

Since homebrew updated Pandoc to 2.0 on my macOS (High Sierra) system last 
week, my creation of slidy slides from markdown no longer works.

Here is the command that seemed to work well before 2.0 for input in file 
xxx.md

    pandoc --self-contained --latexmathml --slide-level=2  -t slidy -s -o 
xxx.html xxx.md

Now, --latexmathml does not seem to work with other builds, so I switched 
to --mathml.  But that does not seem to be the issue.

Given the output, it seems that metadata in my file is not being parsed 
correctly.  But I have not seen that issue with other markdown-to-html 
conversions.

I no longer have a working pre-2.0 version installed, so I have not had 
time to construct a short test case that works in the old but not the new.

Try with 2.0.1.1.  We fixed a problem with --self-contained
+ S5, and it could be that the same issue affects slidy.

Also, does it work without --self-contained?

You say the metadata is not being parsed correctly.  It
would help if you gave more details about why you think
that.

I am using 2.0.1.1.  

However, the problem may be unrelated to Pandoc 2.0.  The Markdown source 
file somehow got all its linefeed characters replaced by carriage returns. 
This was not evident in my editor (Aquamacs).  It showed up when I did 
"more" on the fil.

On macOS the Markdown reader takes the entire file as the title metadata 
line. So all I got was a file of bold centered text. I do not know if the 
behavior changed from pre-2.0 to 2.0 because I no longer have the old 
system installed. (I rely on homebrew.)

I am not sure how this happened to several of my slide source files. (I 
have these files in a Box synched folder that allows me access from my 
office, laptop, and home Macs.)

Solution is easy then:

cat source.md | tr '\r' '\n' > source-fixed.md
