pandoc 2.1.2

on GitHub

Markdown reader:

• Fix parsing bug with nested fenced divs (#4281). Previously we allowed “nonindent spaces” before the opening and closing :::, but this interfered with list parsing, so now we require the fences to be flush with the margin of the containing block.

Commonmark reader:

• raw_html is now on by default. It can be disabled explicitly using -f commonmark-raw_html.

Org reader (Albert Krewinkel):

• Move citation tests to separate module.

• Allow changing emphasis syntax (#4378). The characters allowed before and after emphasis can be configured via #+pandoc-emphasis-pre and #+pandoc-emphasis-post, respectively. This allows to change which strings are recognized as emphasized text on a per-document or even per-paragraph basis. Example:

  #+pandoc-emphasis-pre: "-\t ('\"{"
  #+pandoc-emphasis-post: "-\t\n .,:!?;'\")}["
  

LaTeX reader:

• Fixed comments inside citations (#4374).
• Fix regression in package options including underscore (#4424).
• Make --trace work.
• Fixed parsing of tabular* environment (#4279).

RST reader:

• Fix regression in parsing of headers with trailing space (#4280).

Muse reader (Alexander Krotov):

• Enable <literal> tags even if amuse extension is enabled. Amusewiki disables tags for security reasons. If user wants similar behavior in pandoc, RawBlocks and RawInlines can be removed or replaced with filters.
• Remove space prefix from <literal> tag contents.
• Do not consume whitespace while looking for closing end tag.
• Convert alphabetical list markers to decimal in round-trip test. Alphabetical lists are an addition of Text::Amuse. They are not present in Emacs Muse and can be ambiguous when list starts with “i.”, “c.” etc.
• Allow <quote> and other tags to be indented.
• Allow single colon in definition list term.
• Fix parsing of verse in lists.
• Improved parsing efficiency. Avoid parseFromString. Lists are parsed in linear instead of exponential time now.
• Replace ParserState with MuseState.
• Prioritize lists with roman numerals over alphabetical lists. This is to make sure “i.” starts a roman numbered list, instead of a list with letter “i” (followed by “j”, “k”, …“).
• Fix directive parsing.
• Parse definition lists with multiple descriptions.
• Parse next list item before parsing more item contents.
• Fixed a bug: headers did not terminate lists.
• Move indentation parsing from definitionListItem to definitionList.
• Paragraph indentation does not indicate nested quote. Muse allows indentation to indicate quotation or alignment, but only on the top level, not within a or list.
• Require that block tags are on separate lines. Text::Amuse already explicitly requires it anyway.
• Fix matching of closing inline tags.
• Various internal changes.
• Fix parsing of nested definition lists.
• Require only one space for nested definition list indentation.
• Do not remove trailing whitespace from <code>.
• Fix parsing of trailing whitespace. Newline after whitespace now results in softbreak instead of space.

Docx reader (Jesse Rosenthal, except where noted):

• Handle nested sdt tags (#4415).
• Don’t look up dependant run styles if +styles is enabled.
• Move pandoc inline styling inside custom-style span.
• Read custom styles (#1843). This will read all paragraph and character classes as divs and spans, respectively. Dependent styles will still be resolved, but will be wrapped with appropriate style tags. It is controlled by the +styles extension (-f docx+styles). This can be used in conjunction with the custom-style feature in the docx writer for a pandoc-docx editing workflow. Users can convert from an input docx, reading the custom-styles, and then use that same input docx file as a reference-doc for producing an output docx file. Styles will be maintained across the conversion, even if pandoc doesn’t understand them.
• Small change to Fields hyperlink parser. Previously, unquoted string required a space at the end of the line (and consumed it). Now we either take a space (and don’t consume it), or end of input.
• Pick table width from the longest row or header (Francesco Occhipinti, #4360).

Muse writer (Alexander Krotov):

• Change verse markup: > instead of <verse> tag.
• Remove empty strings during inline normalization.
• Don’t indent nested definition lists.
• Use unicode quotes for quoted text.
• Write image width specified in percent in Text::Amuse mode.
• Don’t wrap displayMath into <verse>.
• Escape nonbreaking space (~~).
• Join code with different attributes during normalization.
• Indent lists inside Div.
• Support definitions with multiple descriptions.

Powerpoint writer (Jesse Rosenthal):

• Use table styles This will use the default table style in the reference-doc file. As a result they will be easier when using in a template, and match the color scheme.
• Remove empty slides. Because of the way that slides were split, these could be accidentally produced by comments after images. When animations are added, there will be a way to add an empty slide with either incremental lists or pauses.
• Implement syntax highlighting. Note that background colors can’t be implemented in PowerPoint, so highlighting styles that require these will be incomplete.
• New test framework for pptx. We now compare the output of the Powerpoint writer with files that we know to (a) not be corrupt, and (b) to show the desired output behavior (details below).
• Add notesMaster to presentation.xml if necessary.
• Ignore links and (end)notes in speaker notes.
• Output speaker notes.
• Read speaker note templates conditionally. If there are speaker notes in the presentation, we read in the notesMasters templates from the reference pptx file.
• Fix deletion track changes (#4303, Jesse Rosenthal).

Markdown writer: properly escape @ to avoid capture as citation (#4366).

LaTeX writer:

• Put hypertarget inside figure environment (#4388). This works around a problem with the endfloat package and makes pandoc’s output compatible with it.
• Fix image height with percentage (#4389). This previously caused the image to be resized to a percentage of textwidth, rather than textheight.

ConTeXt writer (Henri Menke):

• New section syntax and support --section-divs (#2609). \section[my-header]{My Header} -> \section[title={My Header},reference={my-header}]. The ConTeXt writer now supports the --section-divs option to write sections in the fenced style, with \startsection and \stopsection.
• xtables: correct wrong usage of caption (Henri Menke).

Docx writer:

• Fix image resizing with multiple images (#3930, Andrew Pritchard).
• Use new golden framework (Jesse Rosenthal).
• Make more deterministic to facilitate testing (Jesse Rosenthal).
  • getUniqueId now calls to the state to get an incremented digit, instead of calling to P.uniqueHash.
  • we always start the PRNG in mkNumbering/mkAbstractNum with the same seed (1848), so our randoms should be the same each time.
• Fix ids in comment writing (Jesse Rosenthal). Comments from --track-changes=all were producing corrupt docx, because the writer was trying to get id from the (ID,_,_) field of the attributes, and ignoring the “id” entry in the key-value pairs. We now check both.

Ms writer: Added papersize variable.

TEI writer:

• Use height instead of depth for images (#4331).
• Ensure that id prefix is always used.
• Don’t emit role attribute; that was a leftover from the Docbook writer.
• Use ‘xml:id’, not ‘id’ attribute (#4371).

AsciiDoc writer:

• Do not output implicit heading IDs (#4363, Alexander Krotov). Convert to asciidoc-auto_identifiers for old behaviour.

RST writer:

• Remove blockToRST' moving its logic into fixBlocks (Francesco Occhipinti).
• Insert comment between lists and quotes (#4248, Francesco Occchipinti).

RST template: remove definition of ‘math’ role as raw. This used to be needed prior to v 0.8 of docutils, but now math support is built-in.

Slides: Use divs to set incremental/non-incremental (#4381, Jesse Rosenthal). The old method (list inside blockquote) still works, but we are encouraging the use of divs with class incremental or nonincremental.

Text.Pandoc.ImageSize:

• Make image size detection for PDFs more robust (#4322).
• Determine image size for PDFs (#4322).
• EMF Image size support (#4375, Andrew Pritchard).

Text.Pandoc.Extensions:

• Add Ext_styles (Jesse Rosenthal, API change). This will be used in the docx reader (defaulting to off) to read pargraph and character styles not understood by pandoc (as divs and spans, respectively).
• Made Ext_raw_html default for commonmark format.

Text.Pandoc.Parsing:

• Export manyUntil (Alexander Krotov, API change).
• Export improved sepBy1 (Alexander Krotov).
• Export list marker parsers: upperRoman, lowerRoman, decimal, lowerAlpha, upperAlpha (Alexander Krotov, API change).

Tests/Lua: fix tests on windows (Albert Krewinkel).

Lua: register script name in global variable (#4393). The name of the Lua script which is executed is made available in the global Lua variable PANDOC_SCRIPT_FILE, both for Lua filters and custom writers.

Tests: Abstract powerpoint tests out to OOXML tests (Jesse Rosenthal). There is very little pptx-specific in these tests, so we abstract out the basic testing function so it can be used for docx as well. This should allow us to catch some errors in the docx writer that slipped by the roundtrip testing.

Lua filters: store constructors in registry (Albert Krewinkel). Lua functions used to construct AST element values are stored in the Lua registry for quicker access. Getting a value from the registry is much faster than getting a global value (partly to idiosyncrasies of hslua); this change results in a considerable performance boost.

Documentation:

• doc/org.md Add draft of Org-mode documentation (Albert Krewinkel).
• doc/lua-filters.md: document global vars set for filters (Albert Krewinkel).
• INSTALL.md: mention Stack version. (#4343, Adam Brandizzi).

• MANUAL.txt: document header and footer variables (newmana).
• MANUAL.txt: self-contained implies standalone (#4304, Daniel Lublin).
• CONTRIBUTING.md: label was renamed. (#4310, Alexander Brandizzi).
