+### Generic raw attribute ###

+#### Extension: `raw_attribute` ####
+
+Inline spans and fenced code blocks with a special
+kind of attribute will be parsed as raw content with the
+designated format.  For example, the following produces a raw
+groff `ms` block:
+
+    ```{=ms}
+    .MYMACRO
+    blah blah
+    ```
+And the following produces a raw `html` inline element:
+
+    This is `<a>html</a>`{=html}
+
+This extension presupposes that the relevant kind of
+inline code or fenced code block is enabled.  Thus, for
+example, to use a raw attribute with a backtick code block,
+`backtick_code_blocks` must be enabled.
+
+The raw attribute cannot be combined with regular attributes.
