Re: How can I process custom LaTeX commands?

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

Pandoc will handle LaTeX macros automatically.

Example:

 % pandoc -f latex
\newcommand{\argument}[1]{\textbf{#1}}

\argument{hi}
^D
<p><strong>hi</strong></p>

You don't need a filter as long as your macro definitions are
in the file being processed, or in a local sty that it includes.
