md->asciidoc inline code has plus signs

md->asciidoc inline code has plus signs

Hi,

I've searched the archive for this, but wasn't able to find it.

I'm using pandoc 2.7.3 under Mac OS X to convert docs from Markdown to
Asciidoc.  Some of these may later be converted to HTML and/or PDF.

The issue is that when converting inline code, pandoc surrounds the text
with back-ticks AND plus signs, but both are not required by asciidoc, only
one or the other.  So the question is:  how do I get the plus signs to go
away?

Here's a trivial example:

echo 'Normal text `this is code`' |pandoc - -o- -f markdown -t asciidoc
Normal text `+this is code+`


If this output is then converted to HTML, the plus signs are rendered as if
they had been part of the original text:

echo 'Normal text `this is code`' |pandoc - -o- -f markdown -t asciidoc
|asciidoc -o- -b xhtml11 -
<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph"><p>Normal text <code>+this is code+</code></p></div>
</div>


(I've omitted some of the HTML output for clarity.)

Thanks in advance for any help.

Interesting, this seems to work differently in asciidoc and
asciidoctor (in asciidoctor you get the expected output).

Here's the commit that added this:

commit 98ee6ca289ad7117b7336a57bcfc6f4b54463f4e
Author: John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>

    Asciidoc writer: use `` `+...+` `` form for inline code.
    
    The old `` `a__b__c` `` yields emphasis inside code in asciidoc.
    To get a pure literal code span, use `` `+a__b__c+` ``.

Looks like this behavior is asciidoctor-specific.
Could you put an issue on our tracker so we won't forget
to fix this?  It should be easy enough to make the `+`s
conditional on the asciidoctor extension.

PS.  I get annoyed when I see online forums talking about how
asciidoc is superior to markdown because there aren't
N+1 versions!

Don't worry about putting up an issue, I'll just
fix it now since it's easy.
