* Changing names of some extensions to reflect manual pages or some hierarchy @ 2022-09-30 11:22 lucabal...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org [not found] ` <3a26c3b6-3557-4b2b-a8da-21b9c39fa3c9n-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org> 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: lucabal...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org @ 2022-09-30 11:22 UTC (permalink / raw) To: pandoc-discuss [-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1121 bytes --] Hi, one of the most difficult things for me in using pandoc is to learn extensions and remember their names. I was wondering if it wouldn't be better to rename some of them differently. In particular it would be useful to reverse their names, for example: + simple_tables -> tables_simple + multiline_tables -> tables_multiline + grid_tables -> tables_grid + pipe_tables -> tables_pipe so for example, the output of `pandoc --list-extensions=markdown` would be ``` [OMISSIS] +table_captions +tables_multiline +tables_pipe +tables_simple [OMISSIS] ``` and so on for many other. I know this may break things in scripts, but it would simplify the use of extensions a lot in my opinion.
