pandoc (0.47) UNRELEASED; urgency=low [ Recai Oktaş ] * Debian packaging changes: + Migrate to GHC 6.8.2. Closes: #461606 + Add new dependencies libghc6-regex-compat-dev and libghc6-uulib-dev. + Remove the code in debian/rules which attempts to remove empty ghc6.6 include directory. This code may cause an installation failure for the -dev package. Closes: #460658 + Fix doc-base to prevent a lintian warning. -- Recai Oktaş Sat, 09 Feb 2008 04:41:46 +0200 pandoc (0.46) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Made -H, -A, and -B options cumulative: if they are specified multiple times, multiple files will be included. * Added optional HTML sanitization using a whitelist. When this option is specified (--sanitize-html on the command line), unsafe HTML tags will be replaced by HTML comments, and unsafe HTML attributes will be removed. This option should be especially useful for those who want to use pandoc libraries in web applications, where users will provide the input. + Main.hs: Added --sanitize-html option. + Text.Pandoc.Shared: Added stateSanitizeHTML to ParserState. + Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML: - Added whitelists of sanitaryTags and sanitaryAttributes. - Added parsers to check these lists (and state) to see if a given tag or attribute should be counted unsafe. - Modified anyHtmlTag and anyHtmlEndTag to replace unsafe tags with comments. - Modified htmlAttribute to remove unsafe attributes. - Modified htmlScript and htmlStyle to remove these elements if unsafe. + Modified README and man pages to document new option. * Improved handling of email addresses in markdown and reStructuredText. Consolidated uri and email address parsers. (Resolves Issue #37.) + New emailAddress and uri parsers in Text.Pandoc.Shared. - uri parser uses parseURI from Network.URI. - emailAddress parser properly handles email addresses with periods in them. + Removed uri and emailAddress parsers from Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST and Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown. * Markdown reader: + Fixed emph parser so that "*hi **there***" is parsed as a Strong nested in an Emph. (A '*' is only recognized as the end of the emphasis if it's not the beginning of a strong emphasis.) + Moved blockQuote parser before list parsers for performance. + Modified 'source' parser to allow backslash-escapes in URLs. So, for example, [my](/url\(1\)) yields a link to /url(1). Resolves Issue #34. + Disallowed links within links. (Resolves Issue #35.) - Replaced inlinesInBalanced with inlinesInBalancedBrackets, which instead of hard-coding the inline parser takes an inline parser as a parameter. - Modified reference and inlineNote to use inlinesInBalancedBrackets. - Removed unneeded inlineString function. - Added inlineNonLink parser, which is now used in the definition of reference. - Added inlineParsers list and redefined inline and inlineNonLink parsers in terms of it. - Added failIfLink parser. + Better handling of parentheses in URLs and quotation marks in titles. - 'source' parser first tries to parse URL with balanced parentheses; if that doesn't work, it tries to parse everything beginning with '(' and ending with ')'. - source parser now uses an auxiliary function source'. - linkTitle parser simplified and improved, under assumption that it will be called in context of source'. + Make 'block' conditional on strictness state, instead of using failIfStrict in block parsers. Use a different ordering of parsers in strict mode (raw HTML block before paragraph) for performance. In non-strict mode use rawHtmlBlocks instead of htmlBlock. Simplified htmlBlock, since we know it's only called in strict mode. + Improved handling of raw HTML. (Resolves Issue #36.) - Tags that can be either block or inline (e.g. ) should be treated as block when appropriate and as inline when appropriate. Thus, for example, hi should be treated as a paragraph with inline tags, while hi should be treated as a paragraph within tags. - Moved htmlBlock after para in list of block parsers. This ensures that tags that can be either block or inline get parsed as inline when appropriate. - Modified rawHtmlInline' so that block elements aren't treated as inline. - Modified para parser so that paragraphs containing only HTML tags and blank space are not allowed. Treat these as raw HTML blocks instead. + Fixed bug wherein HTML preceding a code block could cause it to be parsed as a paragraph. The problem is that the HTML parser used to eat all blank space after an HTML block, including the indentation of the code block. (Resolves Issue #39.) - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML, removed parsing of following space from rawHtmlBlock. - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown, modified rawHtmlBlocks so that indentation is eaten *only* on the first line after the HTML block. This means that in
foo
the foo won't be treated as a code block, but in
foo
it will. This seems the right approach for least surprise. * RST reader: + Fixed bug in parsing explicit links (resolves Issue #44). The problem was that we were looking for inlines until a '<' character signaled the start of the URL; so, if you hit a reference-style link, it would keep looking til the end of the document. Fix: change inline => (notFollowedBy (char '`') >> inline). Note that this won't allow code inlines in links, but these aren't allowed in resT anyway. + Cleaned up parsing of reference names in key blocks and links. Allow nonquoted reference links to contain isolated '.', '-', '_', so so that strings like 'a_b_' count as links. + Removed unnecessary check for following link in str. This is unnecessary now that link is above str in the definition of 'inline'. * HTML reader: + Modified rawHtmlBlock so it parses and tags. This allows these tags to be handled correctly in Markdown. HTML reader now uses rawHtmlBlock', which excludes and , since these are handled in parseHtml. (Resolves Issue #38.) + Fixed bug (emph parser was looking for tag, not ). + Don't interpret contents of style tags as markdown. (Resolves Issue #40.) - Added htmlStyle, analagous to htmlScript. - Use htmlStyle in htmlBlockElement and rawHtmlInline. - Moved "script" from the list of tags that can be either block or inline to the list of block tags. + Modified rawHtmlBlock to use anyHtmlBlockTag instead of anyHtmlTag and anyHtmlEndTag. This fixes a bug in markdown parsing, where inline tags would be included in raw HTML blocks. + Modified anyHtmlBlockTag to test for (not inline) rather than directly for block. This allows us to handle e.g. docbook in the markdown reader. * LaTeX reader: Properly recognize --parse-raw in rawLaTeXInline. Updated LaTeX reader test to use --parse-raw. * HTML writer: + Modified rules for automatic HTML header identifiers to ensure that identifiers begin with an alphabetic character. The new rules are described in README. (Resolves Issue #33.) + Changed handling of titles in HTML writer so you don't get "titleprefix - " followed by nothing. * ConTeXt writer: Use wrappers around Doc elements to ensure proper spacing. Each block element is wrapped with either Pad or Reg. Pad'ed elements are guaranteed to have a blank line in between. * RST writer: + Refactored RST writer to use a record instead of a tuple for state, and to include options in state so it doesn't need to be passed as a parameter. + Use an interpreted text role to render math in restructuredText. See http://www.american.edu/econ/itex2mml/mathhack.rst for the strategy. [ Recai Oktaş ] * Debian packaging changes: + Remove the empty 'include' directory in -dev package, which lintian complains about. + Bump Standarts-Version to 3.7.3. + Use new 'Homepage:' field to specify the upstream URL on suggestion of lintian. -- Recai Oktaş Tue, 08 Jan 2008 05:13:31 +0200 pandoc (0.45) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Simplified parsing of reference keys and notes in markdown and RST readers: The Reference data structure from Text.Pandoc.Shared is no longer needed, since referenceKey and noteBlock parses return strings (as many blank lines as were occupied by the key or note) and update state themselves. getPosition and setPosition are now used to ensure that error messages will give the correct line number. This yields cleaner (and slightly faster) code, with more accurate parsing error messages. * Added new Math inline element: + Markdown and LaTeX readers now convert TeX math into Math elements, not TeX. + This allows math to be treated differently from raw TeX in output. TeX elements are no longer printed in output formats other than Markdown, LaTeX, and ConTeXt. But Math elements are always printed. * New default handling of math in writers: + New module Text.Pandoc.Readers.TeXMath exports readTeXMath, which parses raw TeX math and outputs a string of Pandoc inlines that tries to render it as far as possible using unicode characters, lapsing into literal TeX when needed. + readTeXMath is now used for default HTML output in HTML, S5, RTF, and Docbook, if no other method for displaying math in HTML is specified. Enclosing $'s are no longer printed by default. + By default, math is put inside . This way it can be distinguished from the surrounding text, e.g. put in a different font. * New --gladtex and --mimetex options for display of math in HTML: + If --gladtex is specified, math is output between tags, so it can be processed by gladTeX. + If --mimetex is specified, math is put in tags with a link to the mimetex CGI script (or any other script that takes TeX math as input and outputs an image). The URL of the script may be specified, but defaults to /cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi. + HTMLMathMethod structure in WriterOptions keeps track of how to display math in HTML output. + Updated README with a description of the four options for displaying math in HTML. * HTML reader: + Fixed bug: parser for minimized attributes should not swallow trailing spaces. + Simplified HTML attribute parsing. + Changed parsing of code blocks in HTML reader: tag is no longer needed.
 suffices. All HTML tags in the code block
      (e.g. for syntax highlighting) are skipped, because they are not
      portable to other output formats. A ... block not
      surrounded by 
 now counts as inline HTML, not a code block.
    + Remove just one leading and one trailing newline from contents of
      
...
in codeBlock parser. * Markdown reader: + Removed support for box-style block quotes. + Require space before title in links and references. This fixes a bug in parsing URLs like http://silly/url(withparen). + Improved and simplified setextHeader parser. + Fixed logic in smart quote parsing, adding some needed 'try' statements. + Fixed smart quote parsing so that unicode characters 8216 and 8217 are recognized as single quotes, and 8220 and 8221 as double quotes. * RST reader: + Fixed bug in parsing of code blocks. Previously a full tab indent was required, but RST allows code to be indented any amount. Resolves Issue #27. + Allow field lists to be indented. + Parse the contents of field lists instead of treating as a raw string. + Represent field lists as definition lists instead of blockquotes. + Fixed bug in which metadata would be overridden if the document contained multiple field lists. + Parse fields associated with '.. image::' blocks, and use 'alt' field, if given, for image alt and title attributes. * LaTeX reader: + Modified specialChar so that '"' characters are parsed. + Fixed a bug in parsing of \[ \] math blocks (thanks to Mark Kalderon). * HTML writer: + Changes in handling of math (see above). + Don't produce HTML for table of contents if there are no headers. (This would be an empty list, which is invalid XHTML.) * Markdown writer: + Don't print title attribute if title is empty. (This differs from the behavior of Markdown.pl, and agrees with PHP Markdown. But John Gruber has indicated that he prefers this behavior.) Adjusted test suite accordingly. + Fixed incorrect line wrapping in paragraphs including hard line breaks. Resolves Issue #25. + Fixed bug in markdown writer: If an ordered list item began with a marker greater than 3 characters in width, and the item took more than one line, it would appear on the line after the list marker, e.g.: (12) My list item. Multiline. Now it works as follows: (12) My list item. Multiline. * RST writer + Fixed bug in RST writer's handling of ordered lists. Previously, list items with multiple lines would not always line up with single-line list items. Now, list items are nested the length of the list marker + 1. This looks better and ensures that list items all line up. (Note that list markers are padded to the length of the longest list marker in the series.) + Use 3-space indent for unordered lists. + If label for a link reference contains a colon, surround it by ` signs so it won't be interpreted as the end of the link label. * LaTeX writer: + Cleaner output for footnotes. Footnotes now always begin on a new line, and the final } is on a line by itself only when it needs to be (i.e. only when the note ends with a Verbatim environment). + Added writer options to state, so state doesn't need to be passed as a parameter. + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded. * ConTeXt writer: many improvements for more idiomatic ConTeXt output (thanks to Idris Samawi Hamid for suggestions). + PrettyPrint module now used for output. + Writer options are now in state, so they don't have to be passed as a parameter. + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded. + Better treatment of footnotes: footnotes are always on lines by themselves, and the final } is on a line by itself only when it needs to be (after \stoptyping). + Use \subject, \subsubject, ... or \section, \subsection, ... for headings, depending on whether --number-sections option is selected. + Extra blank line inserted after \stopitemize + Use new, "official" definition of blockquote environment. Also, use blank line after \startblockquote to balance blank line at the end. + Both itemized and enumerated lists are now generated using \start-stopitemize, with appropriate options. Removed definitions of ltxenum and ltxitem, which are no longer needed. Provided defaults for itemized lists in the preamble. State keeps track of ordered list level, so that when default numbering is specified, the appropriate scheme can be used. + Changed \useurl to \useURL. + Changed link color from red to blue. + Use \subsubsubsubsection etc., since these are supported (up to at least sub x 5). * Text.Pandoc.Shared: + Save and restore position in parseFromString, so that accurate error messages can be given. + Improved efficiency of romanNumeral parser. + Added wrappedTeX and wrapTeXIfNeeded functions. These ensure that footnotes occur on lines by themselves (to make them easier to see and move) and do not screw up line wrapping. * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: modified fromUTF8 to strip out the BOM if present. Windows Notepad and other applications insert a BOM at the beginning of a UTF8 file. * Main.hs (tabFilter): Treat '\r' at end of line as newline (in addition to "\r\n" and '\n'). * Added a writer option for wrapped text and a command-line option '--no-wrap', which disables text wrapping and minimizes whitespace in HTML. (Resolves Issue #26.) + Added support for '--no-wrap' to Main.hs. + Added wrapIfNeeded function to Text.Pandoc.Shared. + Use wrapIfNeeded instead of wrapped in the RST, Man, Docbook, and Markdown writers. + Added render and renderFragment helpers to HTML writer. * Modified html2markdown to run tidy only if the HTML cannot be parsed. Previously html2markdown piped all input through tidy before passing it to pandoc. This caused problems on certain pages (e.g. http://daringfireball.com/markdown) which have well-formed XHTML that causes tidy to choke. The solution is to pipe through tidy only if pandoc cannot parse the input by itself. This means that a temp file is now always used, even when input comes from a local file or standard input. * Removed 'version' constant from Main.hs; added 'pandocVersion' to Text.Pandoc library. * pandoc.cabal: + Modified to work with GHC 6.8 and Cabal configurations. (For GHC 6.8, pretty and containers must be added to Build-Depends, and it is desirable to use the -O2 compiler option.) Cabal configurations allows one to select options depending on the compiler version. For GHC 6.6, the splitBase option can be disabled. + pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is provided for users with older versions of Cabal, which do not support configurations. + Use Ghc-Prof-Options to ensure that '-auto-all' is used when '--enable-(executable|library)-profiling' is specified. Updated PROFILING instructions accordingly. * Makefile: + Makefile now checks GHC version. If GHC is 6.6, pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is copied to pandoc.cabal, and the old pandoc.cabal is copied to pandoc.cabal.orig. Otherwise, pandoc.cabal is copied to pandoc.cabal.orig but otherwise unmodified. This way, the Makefile will work properly with either GHC 6.6 or 6.8. + Changed BUILDCONF to point to dist/setup-config, not .setup-config. This is where current versions of Cabal put it. + Added $(BUILDCMD) target, so setup doesn't get compiled every time. + Removed dependency of templates on ./templates, which is circular now that templates is a subdirectory of the top-level. * MacPorts Portfile: + Modified to install the pandoc library in addition to programs. + Installation must be done manually rather than using Makefile's install-all. + Note that the library must be registered in the activate phase, after the library files have been copied out of the destroot. Cabal generates a 'register.sh' script that will do this. * debian/control: Added libghc6-network-dev, libghc6-xhtml-dev, and libghc6-mtl-dev as dependencies for libghc6-pandoc-dev. Closes: #445235 * debian/rules: Converted to UTF-8. * Changed pandoc home page to http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/. * Updated ASCIIMathML.js to latest version. * Directory structure: + Moved everything from src into the top-level directory. + Changed references to source directory in Makefile and pandoc.cabal.*. + Moved ASCIIMathML.js, headers, and ui into templates directory. + Modified fillTemplates.pl to reflect new paths. [ Recai Oktaş ] * Makefile: Fixed the issue of having two copies of the library documentation under some usage scenarios. * Replaced 'ghc' with '$(GHC)' in Makefile, and made GHC and GHC_PKG configurable through the environment, to support unusual ghc installations. For example: GHC=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc GHC_PKG=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc-pkg make -- Recai Oktaş Sun, 07 Oct 2007 20:51:43 +0300 pandoc (0.44) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Fixed bug in HTML writer: when --toc was used, anchors were put around headers, which is invalid XHTML (block content within inline element). Now the anchors are put inside the header tags. Resolves Issue #23. * Added xmlns attribute to html element in html writer tests. This attribute is added by more recent versions of the xhtml library (>= 3000), and is required for valid XHTML. [ Recai Oktaş ] * On configure, compile 'Setup.hs' to 'setup' and use 'setup' as the build command instead of 'runhaskell', which, on some platforms (such as s390, alpha, m68k), throws the following error: runhaskell Setup.hs configure --prefix=/usr ghc-6.6.1: not built for interactive use This causes a serious FTBFS bug. Closes: #440668. -- Recai Oktaş Mon, 03 Sep 2007 18:24:02 +0300 pandoc (0.43) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * The focus of this release is performance. The markdown parser is about five times faster than in 0.42, based on benchmarks with the TextMate manual. * Main.hs: Replaced CRFilter and tabFilter with single function tabFilter, which operates on the whole string rather than breaking it into lines, and handles dos-style line-endings as well as tabs. * Added separate LaTeX reader and native reader tests; removed round-trip tests. * Text.Pandoc.Shared: + Removed tabsToSpaces and tabsInLine (they were used only in Main.hs.) + General code cleanup (to elimante warnings when compiling with -Wall.) + Added 'wrapped' function, which helps wrap text into paragraphs, using the prettyprinting library. + Rewrote charsInBalanced and charsInBalanced'. - Documented restriction: open and close must be distinct characters. - Rearranged options for greater efficiency. - Bug fix: Changed inner call to charsInBalanced inside charsInBalanced' to charsInBalanced'. + anyLine now requires that the line end with a newline (not eof). This is a harmless assumption, since we always add newlines to the end of a block before parsing with anyLine, and it yields a 10% speed boost. + Removed unnecessary 'try' in anyLine. + Removed unneeded 'try' from romanNumeral parser. + Use notFollowedBy instead of notFollowedBy' in charsInBalanced. + Removed unneeded 'try' in parseFromString. + Removed unneeded 'try' from stringAnyCase. (Now it behaves like 'string'.) + Changed definition of 'enclosed' in Text.Pandoc.Shared so that 'try' is not automatically applied to the 'end' parser. Added 'try' in calls to 'enclosed' where needed. Slight speed increase. * Writers: + Replaced individual wrapping routines in RST, Man, and Markdown writers with 'wrapped' from Text.Pandoc.Shared. + Rewrote LaTeX writer to use the prettyprinting library, so we get word wrapping, etc. + Modified latex writer tests for new latex writer using prettyprinter. + Fixed bug in LaTeX writer: autolinks would not cause '\usepackage{url}' to be put in the document header. Also, changes to state in enumerated list items would be overwritten. + In Markdown writer, escape paragraphs that begin with ordered list markers, so they don't get interpreted as ordered lists. * Text.Pandoc.Reades.LaTeX: + Fixed bug in LaTeX reader, which wrongly assumed that the roman numeral after "enum" in "setcounter" would consist entirely of "i"s. 'enumiv' is legitimate. + LaTeX command and environment names can't contain numbers. + Rearranged order of parsers in inline for slight speed improvement. + Added '`' to special characters and 'unescapedChar'. * Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST: + Removed unneeded try's in RST reader; also minor code cleanup. + Removed tabchar. + Rearranged parsers in inline (doubled speed). * Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown: + Skip notes parsing if running in strict mode. (This yields a nice speed improvement in strict mode.) + Simplify autolink parsing code, using Network.URI to test for URIs. Added dependency on network library to debian/control and pandoc.cabal. + More perspicuous definition of nonindentSpaces. + Removed unneeded 'try' in 'rawLine'. + Combined linebreak and whitespace into a new whitespace parser, to avoid unnecessary reparsing of space characters. + Removed unnecessary 'try' in 'codeBlock', 'ellipses', 'noteMarker', 'multilineRow', 'dashedLine', 'rawHtmlBlocks'. + Use lookAhead in parsers for setext headers and definition lists to see if the next line begins appropriately; if not, don't waste any more time parsing. + Don't require blank lines after code block. (It's sufficient to end code block with a nonindented line.) + Changed definition of 'emph': italics with '_' must not be followed by an alphanumeric character. This is to help prevent interpretation of e.g. [LC_TYPE]: my_type as '[LCTYPE]:mytype'. + Improved Markdown.pl-compatibility in referenceLink: the two parts of a reference-style link may be separated by one space, but not more... [a] [link], [not] [a link]. + Fixed markdown inline code parsing so it better accords with Markdown.pl: the marker for the end of the code section is a clump of the same number of `'s with which the section began, followed by a non-` character. So, for example, ` h ``` i ` -> h ``` i. + Split 'title' into 'linkTitle' and 'referenceTitle', since the rules are slightly different. + Rewrote 'para' for greater efficiency. + Rewrote link parsers for greater efficiency. + Removed redundant 'referenceLink' in definition of inline (it's already in 'link'). + Refactored escapeChar so it doesn't need 'try'. + Refactored hrule for performance in Markdown reader. + More intelligent rearranging of 'inline' so that most frequently used parsers are tried first. + Removed tabchar parser, as whitespace handles tabs anyway. * Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences: + Refactored. + Removed unnecessary 'try's for a speed improvement. + Removed unnecessary '&' and ';' from the entity table. * Build process: + Makefile: Get VERSION from cabal file, not Main.hs. + Modified MacPorts Portfile: - Depend on haddock - Build and install libraries and library documentation in addition to pandoc executable - Added template item for md5 sum in Portfile.in. - Incorporated changes from MacPorts repository (r28278). + FreeBSD port: Don't try to generate distinfo in Makefile. It can be made using 'make makesum' in FreeBSD. + Make both freebsd and macports targets depend on tarball. * Website and documentation: + Updated INSTALL instructions. + Added pandocwiki demo to website. + Removed local references to Portfile, since pandoc is now in the MacPorts repository. -- Recai Oktaş Sun, 02 Sep 2007 15:50:11 +0300 pandoc (0.42) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Main.hs: Use utf8 conversion on the extra files loaded with the -H, -C, -B, and -A options. This fixes problems with unicode characters in these files. * Exposed Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML, since it is imported in Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML and without it we get a linking error when using the library. * Markdown reader: + Added new rule for enhanced markdown ordered lists: if the list marker is a capital letter followed by a period (including a single-letter capital roman numeral), then it must be followed by at least two spaces. The point of this is to avoid accidentally treating people's initials as list markers: a paragraph might begin, "B. Russell was an English philosopher," and this shouldn't be treated as a list. Documented change in README. + Blocks that start with "p. " and a digit are no longer treated as ordered lists (it's a page number). + Added a needed 'try' to listItem. + Removed check for a following setext header in endline. A full test is too inefficient (doubles benchmark time), and the substitute we had before is not 100% accurate. + Don't use Code elements for autolinks if --strict specified. * LaTeX writer: When a footnote ends with a Verbatim environment, the close } of the footnote cannot occur on the same line or an error occurs. Fixed this by adding a newline before the closing } of every footnote. * HTML writer: + Removed incorrect "{}" around style information in HTML tables. Column widths now work properly in HTML. + If --strict option is specified (and --toc is not), don't include identifiers in headers, for better Markdown compatibility. * Build process: + Separated $(web_dest) and website targets. + In website, index.txt is now constructed from template index.txt.in. + Added freebsd target to Markefile. This creates the freebsd Makefile from Makefile.in, and creates distinfo. Removed Makefile and distinfo from the repository. + Added macport target to Makefile. Portfile is built from template Portfile.in. + Removed OSX package targets. (Too many difficulties involving dependencies on dynamic libraries.) + More complete INSTALL instructions for all architectures. * Website: + Added a programming demo, pandocwiki. [ Recai Oktaş ] * Do not forget to close pandoc's ITP. Closes: #391666 -- Recai Oktaş Sun, 26 Aug 2007 22:51:32 +0300 pandoc (0.41) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Fixed bugs in HTML reader: + Skip material at end *only if* is present (previously, only part of the document would be parsed if an error was found; now a proper error message is given). + Added new constant eitherBlockOrInline with elements that may count either as block-level or as inline. Modified isInline and isBlock to take this into account. + Modified rawHtmlBlock to accept any tag (even an inline tag): this is innocuous, because rawHtmlBlock is tried only if a regular inline element can't be parsed. + Added a necessary 'try' in definition of 'para'. * Fixed bug in markdown ordered list parsing. The problem was that anyOrderedListStart did not check for a space following the ordered list marker. So in 'A.B. 2007' the parser would be expecting a list item, but would not find one, causing an error. Fixed a similar bug in the RST reader. Resolves Issue #22. * Refactored RST and Markdown readers using parseFromString. * LaTeX reader will now skip anything after \end{document}. * Fixed blockquote output in markdown writer: previously, block quotes in indented contexts would be indented only in the first line. * Added note to INSTALL about variations in versions of the xhtml library that can lead to failed tests (thanks to Leif LeBaron). -- Recai Oktaş Sun, 19 Aug 2007 23:26:07 +0300 pandoc (0.4) unstable; urgency=low [ John MacFarlane ] * Added two new output formats: groff man pages and ConTeXt. By default, output files with extensions ".ctx" and ".context" are assumed to be ConTeXt, and output files with single-digit extensions are assumed to be man pages. * Enhanced ordered lists (documented in README, under Lists): + The OrderedList block element now stores information about list number style, list number delimiter, and starting number. + The readers parse this information when possible. + The writers use this information to style ordered lists. + The enhancement can be disabled using the --strict option. * Added support for tables (with a new Table block element). Two kinds of tables are supported: a simple table with one-line rows, and a more complex variety with multiline rows. All output formats are supported, but only markdown tables are parsed at the moment. The syntax is documented in README. * Added support for definition lists (with a new DefinitionList block element). All output and input formats are supported. The syntax is documented in README. * Added support for superscripts and subscripts (with new Superscript and Subscript inline elements). All input and output formats. The syntax is documented in README. * Added support for strikeout (with a new Strikeout inline element). All input and output formats are supported. Thanks to Bradley Kuhn, who contributed a patch. The syntax is documented in README. Resolves Issue #18. * Added a --toc|--table-of-contents option. This causes an automatically generated table of contents (or an instruction that creates one) to be inserted at the beginning of the document. Not supported in S5, DocBook, or man page writers. * Modified the -m|--asciimathml option: + If an optional URL argument is provided, a link is inserted instead of the contents of the ASCIIMathML.js script. + Nothing is inserted unless the document actually contains LaTeX math. * Removed Blank block element as unnecessary. * Removed Key and Note blocks from the Pandoc data structure. All links are now stored as explicit links, and note contents are stored with the (inline) notes. + All link Targets are now explicit (URL, title) pairs; there is no longer a 'Ref' target. + Markdown and RST parsers now need to extract data from key and note blocks and insert them into the relevant inline elements. Other parsers have been simplified, since there is no longer any need to construct separate key and note blocks. + Markdown, RST, and HTML writers need to construct lists of notes; Markdown and RST writers need to construct lists of link references (when the --reference-links option is specified); and the RST writer needs to construct a list of image substitution references. All writers have been rewritten to use the State monad when state is required. + Several functions (generateReference, keyTable, replaceReferenceLinks, replaceRefLinksBlockList, and some auxiliaries used by them) have been removed from Text.Pandoc.Shared, since they are no longer needed. New functions and data structures (Reference, isNoteBlock, isKeyBlock, isLineClump) have been added. The functions inTags, selfClosingTag, inTagsSimple, and inTagsIndented have been moved to the DocBook writer, since that is now the only module that uses them. NoteTable is now exported in Text.Pandoc.Shared. + Added stateKeys and stateNotes to ParserState; removed stateKeyBlocks, stateKeysUsed, stateNoteBlocks, stateNoteIdentifiers, stateInlineLinks. + Added writerNotes and writerReferenceLinks to WriterOptions. * Added Text.Pandoc module that exports basic readers, writers, definitions, and utility functions. This should export everything needed for most uses of Pandoc libraries. The haddock documentation includes a short example program. * Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML is no longer an exported module. * Added Text.Pandoc.Blocks module to help in printing markdown and RST tables. This module provides functions for working with fixed-width blocks of text--e.g., placing them side by side, as in a table row. * Refactored to avoid reliance on Haskell's Text.Regex library, which (a) is slow, and (b) does not properly handle unicode. This fixed some strange bugs, e.g. in parsing S-cedilla, and improved performance. + Replaced 'gsub' with a general list function 'substitute' that does not rely on Text.Regex. + Rewrote extractTagType in HTML reader so that it doesn't use regexs. + In Markdown reader, replaced email regex test with a custom email autolink parser (autoLinkEmail). Also replaced selfClosingTag regex with a custom function isSelfClosingTag. + Modified Docbook writer so that it doesn't rely on Text.Regex for detecting 'mailto' links. + Removed escapePreservingRegex and reamped entity-handling functions in Text.Pandoc.Shared and Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences to avoid reliance on Text.Regex (see below on character reference handling changes). * Renamed Text.Pandoc.Entities as Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences. * Changed handling of XML entities. Entities are now parsed (and unicode characters returned) in the Markdown and HTML readers, rather than being handled in the writers. In HTML and Docbook writers, UTF-8 is now used instead of entities for characters above 128. This makes the HTML and DocBook output much more readable and more easily editable. + Removed sgmlHexEntity, sgmlDecimalEntity, sgmlNamedEntity, and sgmlCharacterEntity regexes from Text.Pandoc.Shared. + Renamed escapeSGMLChar to escapeCharForXML. Added escapeStringForXML. Moved both functions to Text.Pandoc.Writers.Docbook. + Added characterReference parser to Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences. This parses a string and return a unicode character. + Rewrote decodeCharacterReferences to use the new parser instead of Text.Regex. + Added new charRef parser for Markdown and HTML, which replaces the old 'entity' parser. Added '&' as a special character in Markdown reader. + Modified HTML and Markdown readers to call decodeEntities on all raw strings (e.g. authors, dates, link titles), to ensure that no unprocessed entities are included in the native representation of the document. (In the HTML reader, most of this work is done by a change in extractAttributeName.) + In XML and Markdown output, escape unicode nonbreaking space as ' ', since a unicode non-breaking space is impossible to distinguish visually from a regular space. (Resolves Issue #3.) + Removed encodeEntitiesNumerical. + Use Data.Map for entityTable and (new) reverseEntityTable, for a slight performance boost over the old association list. + Removed unneeded decodeEntities from 'str' parser in HTML and Markdown readers. * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: Renamed encodeUTF8 to toUTF8, decodeUTF8 to fromUTF8, for clarity. * Replaced old haskell98 module names replaced by hierarchical module names, e.g. List by Data.List. Removed haskell98 from dependencies in pandoc.cabal, and added mtl (needed for state monad). Substituted xhtml for html. * Refactored and cleaned up character escaping in writers, using backslashEscapes and escapeStringUsing functions. * Instead of adding "\n\n" to the end of an input string in Main.hs, this is now done in the readers. This makes the libraries behave the way you'd expect from the pandoc program. Resolves Issue #10. * URLs and email addresses in autolinks are now typeset as Code. * In Main.hs, changed putStr to putStrLn -- mainly because MacOS X doesn't display the whole output unless there's a line ending. * Major code cleanup in all modules, for greater consistency, concision, and readability. * HTML reader: + Fixed several bugs (extractTagType, attribute parsing). + Remove Null blocks in lists of blocks when possible. + Allow HTML comments as raw HTML inline. * Markdown reader: + Ordered list items may no longer begin with uppercase letters, or letters greater than 'n'. (This prevents first initials and page reference, e.g. 'p. 400', from being parsed as beginning lists.) Also, numbers beginning list items may no longer end with ')', which is now allowed only after letters. Note: These changes may cause documents to be parsed differently. Users should take care in upgrading. + Changed autoLink parsing to conform better to Markdown.pl's behavior. is not treated as a link, but , , and are. + Cleaned up handling of embedded quotes in link titles. Now these are stored as a '"' character, not as '"'. + Use lookAhead parser for the 'first pass' (looking for reference keys), instead of parsing normally, then using setInput to reset input. This yields a slight performance boost. + Fixed several bugs in smart quote recognition. + Fixed bug in indentSpaces (which didn't properly handle cases with mixed spaces and tabs). + Consolidated 'text', 'special', and 'inline' into 'inline'. + Fixed bug which allowed URL and title to be separated by multiple blank lines in links and reference keys. They can be on separate lines but can't have blank lines between them. + Correctly handle bracketed text inside inline footnotes and links,using new function inlinesInBalanced. Resolves Issue #14. + Fixed bug in footnotes: links in footnotes were not being processed. Solution: three-stage parse. First, get all the reference keys and add information to state. Next, get all the notes and add information to state. (Reference keys may be needed at this stage.) Finally, parse everything else. + Replaced named constants like 'emphStart' with literals. + Removed an extra occurance of escapedChar in definition of inline. * RST reader: + Allow the URI in a RST hyperlink target to start on the line after the reference key. + Added 'try' in front of 'string', where needed, or used a different parser. This fixes a bug where ````` would not be correctly parsed as a verbatim `. + Fixed slow performance in parsing inline literals in RST reader. The problem was that ``#`` was seen by 'inline' as a potential link or image. Fix: inserted 'notFollowedBy (char '`')' in link parsers. Resolves Issue #8. + Use lookAhead instead of getInput/setInput in RST reader. Removed unneeded getState call, since lookAhead automatically saves and restores the parser state. + Allow hyperlink target URIs to be split over multiple lines, and to start on the line after the reference. Resolves Issue #7. + Fixed handling of autolinks. * LaTeX reader: + Replaced 'choice [(try (string ...), ...]' idiom with 'oneOfStrings', for clarity. + Added clauses for tilde and caret. Tilde is \ensuremath{\sim}, and caret is \^{}, not \^ as before. + Added parsing for \url. + Parse \texttt{} as code, provided there's nothing fancy inside. * HTML writer: + Modified HTML writer to use the Text.XHtml library. This results in cleaner, faster code, and it makes it easier to use Pandoc in other projects, like wikis, which use Text.XHtml. Two functions are now provided, writeHtml and writeHtmlString: the former outputs an Html structure, the latter a rendered string. The S5 writer is also changed, in parallel ways (writeS5, writeS5String). + The Html header is now written programmatically, so it has been removed from the 'headers' directory. The S5 header is still needed, but the doctype and some of the meta declarations have been removed, since they are written programatically. This change introduces a new dependency on the xhtml package. + Fixed two bugs in email obfuscation involving improper escaping of '&' in the
