Hi all,

I have some problems understanding the correct behavior of the variables
--toc and --table-of-contents.

As per this commit[1] I would expect that I could enable the generation of
the table of contents by simply inserting `toc: true` in my YAML metadata
block; the table of contents should then appear in my template when invoked
by `$table-of-contents$`. Is it correct or did I misunderstood something?

If that is the desired behavior, than I think there could be a bug:

with `toc: true` specified in my example.md, the following command will
produce an HTML file with an empty <nav> block:

pandoc example.md -s -o example.html


to obtain a working table of contents I have to specify --toc:

pandoc example.md --toc -s -o example.html


I am working with pandoc on linux, pandoc -v:

pandoc 2.0.1
Compiled with pandoc-types 1.17.2, texmath 0.9.4.4, skylighting 0.4.2


Thanks,
Piero
