Re this:

> Ok, I probably missed in the Pandoc citeproc doc that doesn't mention
that supports only MD, so I thought it would work for all formats with
pattern @test.

The @test citation syntax is defined under the citations extension
<https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#extension-citations> (with target
'extension-citations'). This is within the 'Pandoc's Markdown' section and
so perhaps applies only to markdown.

However, there's another citations extension
<https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#org-citations> (with target
'org-citations') in the 'Extensions -> Other extensions' section, and this
describes its usage within org and docx documents.

This little shell script illustrates that the 'citations' extension is
supported for docx, ipynb, jats, markdown (+variants), opml and org, and is
enabled by default for markdown, opml and org.

% for i in $(pandoc --list-input-formats); do echo -n $i:; pandoc
--list-extensions=$i | grep citations || echo; done | grep ':.citations'
docx:-citations
ipynb:-citations
markdown:+citations
markdown_github:-citations
markdown_mmd:-citations
markdown_phpextra:-citations
markdown_strict:-citations
opml:+citations
org:+citations

So I think that (not surprisingly?) the 'citations' syntax supported by a
given input format (if supported) is a function of that input format. The
supported format is clear for markdown (+variants?), org and docx but
perhaps not for ipynb and opml.

I think that it might be useful to clarify some of this in the man page?
Please let me know if I should create an issue.
