[ John MacFarlane ]
* Added --mathml option. When this is selected, pandoc will convert
TeX math into MathML.
+ Added data/MathMLinHTML.js, which is included when no URL is
provided for --mathml. This allows MathML to be displayed (in
better browsers) as text/html.
+ Removed Text.Pandoc.LaTeXMathML. The module was no longer
necessary; it was replaced by two lines in pandoc.hs.
+ Replaced LaTeXMathML.js.commend and LaTeXMathML.js.packed with a
single combined file, LaTeXMathML.js.
* Added --data-dir option.
This specifies a user data directory. If not specified, will default
to ~/.pandoc on unix or Application Data\pandoc on Windows.
Files placed in the user data directory will override system default
data files.
* Added Maybe datadir parameter to readDataFile, saveOpenDocumentAsODT,
latexMathMLScript, s5HeaderIncludes, and getDefaultTemplate. If
Nothing, no user directory is searched for an override.
* Added 'plain' output format. This is similar to markdown, but
removes links, pictures, inline formatting, and most anything that
looks even vaguely markupish. The function writePlain is exported by
Text.Pandoc.Writers.Markdown, with which it shares most of its code.
* Allow multi-line titles and authors in meta block.
Titles may span multiple lines, provided continuation lines
begin with a space character. Separate authors may be put on
multiple lines, provided each line after the first begins with
a space character. Each author must fit on one line. Multiple
authors on a single line may still be separated by a semicolon.
Based on a patch by Justin Bogner.
* When given an absolute URI as parameter, pandoc will try to fetch
the content via HTTP. So you can do:
'pandoc -r html -w markdown http://www.fsf.org'
Adds dependency on HTTP.
* Made HTML reader much more forgiving.
+ Incorporated idea (from HXT) that an element can be closed
by an open tag for another element.
+ Javascript is partially parsed to make sure that a <script>
section is not closed by a </script> in a comment or string.
+ More lenient non-quoted attribute values.
Now we accept anything but a space character, quote, or <>.
This helps in parsing e.g. www.google.com!
+ Bare & signs are now parsed as a string. This is a common
HTML mistake.
+ Skip a bare < in malformed HTML.
* Removed html2markdown and hsmarkdown.
+ html2markdown is no longer needed, since you can now pass URI
arguments to pandoc and directly convert web pages. (Note,
however, that pandoc assumes the pages are UTF8. html2markdown
made an attempt to guess the encoding and convert them.)
+ hsmarkdown is pointless -- a large executable that could be
replaced by 'pandoc --strict'.
* In most writers, an image in a paragraph by itself is now rendered
as a figure, with the alt text as the caption. (Texinfo, HTML, RST,
MediaWiki, Docbook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, HTML.) Other images are
rendered inline.
* Depend on extensible-exceptions. This allows pandoc to be compiled
on GHC 6.8.
* Added --base-header-level option. For example, --base-header-level=2
will change level 1 headers to level 2, level 2 to level 3, etc.
Closes Debian 563416.
* Incomplete support for RST tables (simple and grid).
Thanks to Eric Kow. Colspans and rowspans not yet supported.
* Added accessors (docTitle, docAuthors, docDate) to Meta type.
* MediaWiki writer: format links with relative URLs as wikilinks.
The new rule: If the link target is an absolute URL, an external
link is created. Otherwise, a wikilink is created.
* Text.Pandoc.Shared: Export uniqueIdent, and don't allow tilde in
identifier. Note: This may break links to sections that involve
tildes.
* Markdown(+lhs) reader: handle "inverse bird tracks."
Inverse bird tracks (<) are used for haskell example code that is not
part of the literate Haskell program. Resolves Issue 211.
* LaTeX reader:
+ Recognize '\ ' (interword space).
+ Recognize nonbreaking space '~'.
+ Ignore \section, \pdfannot, \pdfstringdef. Ignore alt title in
section headers. Don't treat \section as inline LaTeX.
Resolves Issue 202.
+ LaTeX reader: allow any special character to be escaped.
Resolves Issue 221.
+ LaTeX reader: treat \paragraph and \subparagraph as level 4, 5
headers. Resolves Issue 207.
* Use template variables for include-before/after.
+ These options now imply -s; previously they worked also in fragment
mode.
+ Users can now adjust position of include-before and include-after
text in the templates.
+ Default position of include-before moved back (as it was before 1.4)
before table of contents.
+ Resolves Issue 217.
* Don't print an empty table header: (all writers).
Resolves Issue 210.
* HTML, Docbook writer: Use tbody, thead, and cols in tables.
* HTML writer: Don't include TOC div if table of contents is empty.
* Markdown writer: Fixed citations.
Previously the markdown writer printed raw citation codes, e.g.
[geach1970], rather than the expanded citations provided by
citeproc, e.g. (Geach 1970). Now it prints the expanded citations.
This means that the document produced can be processed as a markdown
document without citeproc. Thanks to dsanson for reporting, and
Andrea Rossato for the patch.
* Improved and simplified title block in context template.
Previously it caused an error if there was no title.
This method should also be easier for users to customize.
* Markdown reader:
+ Treat p., pp., sec., ch., as abbreviations in smart mode.
+ Disallow blank lines in inline code span.
+ Allow footnotes to be indented < 4 spaces.
This fixes a regression. A test case has been added.
+ Escape spaces in URLs as %20. Previously they were incorrectly
escaped as +, which is appropriate only for the query part of
a URL. Resolves Issue 220.
+ Require two spaces after capital letter + period for list item.
Otherwise "E. coli" starts a list. This might change the semantics
of some existing documents, since previously the two-space
requirement was only enforced when the second word started
with a capital letter. But it is consistent with the existing
documentation and follows the principle of least surprise.
Resolves Issue 212.
* LaTeX template: redefine labelwidth when using enumerate package.
Otherwise the list labels (numbers) often extend past the left
margin, which looks bad.
* Mediawiki writer: Don't print a "== Notes ==" header before
references. This is too English-centric. Writers can provide their
own header at the end of the document.
* Promoted mediawiki headers. '= head =' is now level 1, '== head =='
level 2, etc. This seems to be correct; it's only by convention
that wikipedia articles have level 2 headers at most.
Patch due to Eric Kow.
* RunTests.hs: Set LANG to a UTF-8 locale. Use 'pandoc --data-dir=' so
data files don't need to have been installed. This removes the need to
set HOME.
* HTML reader:
+ Handle spaces before <html>. Resolves Issue 216.
+ Be forgiving in parsing a bare list within a list.
The following is not valid xhtml, but the intent is clear:
<ol>
<li>one</li>
<ol><li>sub</li></ol>
<li>two</li>
</ol>
We'll treat the <ol> as if it's in a <li>. Resolves Issue 215.
* Updated INSTALL instructions. cabal method is now promoted.
* Updated markdown2pdf man page. It no longer says all pandoc options
are accepted.
* README/man pages: Removed advice to pipe through tidy before HTML
reader. This is obsolete, now that we have a forgiving HTML parser.
* LaTeX writer: set numbersections template variable, so
the section numbering options work again.
* Removed obsolete Makefile.
* Website: renamed index.txt.in -> index.txt.
* New batch file to make-windows-installer.
+ Removed old Makefile.windows
+ Added make-windows-installer.bat
+ Modified default installer name in pandoc-setup.iss
* Removed freebsd and macports directories.
They are no longer up to date.
* Setup.hs:
+ Made man page building sensitive to build verbosity.
+ Improved detection of highlighting support in test hook.
+ Install wrapper scripts into cabal bin directory.
+ Also simplified installManpages.
+ Setup.hs: install manpages to mandir. Code borrowed from darcs.
* Changed default of writerXeTeX to False.
* HTML writer: don't include empty UL if --toc but no sections.
Resolves Issue 199.
* LaTeX writer:
+ If book, report, or memoir documentclass, use \chapter{}
for first-level headers. Otherwise use \section{}.
+ Removed stLink, link template variable. Reason: we now always
include hyperref in the template.
* LaTeX template:
+ Only show \author if there are some.
+ Always include hyperref package. It is used not just for links but
for toc, section heading bookmarks, footnotes, etc. Also added
unicode=true on hyperref options.
* markdown2pdf: always do at least two runs. hyperref bookmarks
require this.
* cabal file: Removed unneeded dependency on template-haskell.
* Windows installer - fixed bug in data file locations.
Resolves Issue 197.
* Deprecated --custom-header in documentation.
Removed old "Custom Headers" section in README.
