Re: Adding own elements to pandoc AST

[Bastien DUMONT <bastien.dumont-VwIFZPTo/vqsTnJN9+BGXg@public.gmane.org>]

Is the content of the \gls macro always a one-word string (without spaces)? If so, using the markup in your sample, you will end up with Str objects that you can handle like this (in Lua, I don't speak Python but it should not be difficult to translate):

```
function Str(s)
  if string.match(s.text, '^gls:') then
    -- code to handle the string
  end
  return s
end
```
