3 * Bump version bounds on test-framework packages.
9 * New input formats: `mediawiki` (MediaWiki markup).
11 * New output formats: `epub3` (EPUB v3 with MathML),
12 `fb2` (FictionBook2 ebooks).
14 * New `--toc-depth` option, specifying how many levels of
15 headers to include in a table of contents.
17 * New `--epub-chapter-level` option, specifying the header
18 level at which to divide EPUBs into separate files.
19 Note that this normally affects only performance, not the
20 visual presentation of the EPUB in a reader.
22 * Removed the `--strict` option. Instead of using `--strict`,
23 one can now use the format name `markdown_strict` for either input
24 or output. This gives more fine-grained control that `--strict`
25 did, allowing one to convert from pandoc's markdown to strict
26 markdown or vice versa.
28 * It is now possible to enable or disable specific syntax
29 extensions by appending them (with `+` or `-`) to the writer
30 or reader name. For example,
32 pandoc -f markdown-footnotes+hard_line_breaks
34 disables footnotes and enables treating newlines as hard
35 line breaks. The literate Haskell extensions are now implemented
36 this way as well, using either `+lhs` or `+literate_haskell`.
37 For a list of extension names, see the README under
40 * The following aliases have been introduced for specific
41 combinations of markdown extensions: `markdown_phpextra`,
42 `markdown_github`, `markdown_mmd`, `markdown_strict`. These aliases
43 work just like regular reader and writer names, and can be modified
44 with extension modifiers as described above. (Note that conversion
45 from one markdown dialect to another does not work perfectly,
46 because there are differences in markdown parsers besides
47 just the extensions, and because pandoc's internal document model is
48 not rich enough to capture all of the extensions.)
50 * New `--html-q-tags` option. The previous default was to use `<q>`
51 tags for smart quotes in HTML5. But `<q>` tags are also valid HTML4.
52 Moreover, they are not a robust way of typesetting quotes, since
53 some user agents don't support them, and some CSS resets (e.g.
54 bootstrap) prevent pandoc's quotes CSS from working properly.
55 We now just insert literal quote characters by default in both
56 `html` and `html5` output, but this option is provided for
57 those who still want `<q>` tags.
59 * The markdown reader now prints warnings (to stderr) about
60 duplicate link and note references. Closes #375.
62 * Markdown syntax extensions:
64 + Added pipe tables. Thanks to François Gannaz for the initial patch.
65 These conform to PHP Markdown Extra's pipe table syntax. A subset
66 of org-mode table syntax is also supported, which means that you can
67 use org-mode's nice table editor to create tables.
69 + Added support for RST-style line blocks. These are
70 useful for verse and addresses.
72 + Attributes can now be specified for headers, using the same
73 syntax as in code blocks. (However, currently only the
74 identifier has any effect in most writers.) For example,
78 See [the header above](#foo).
80 + Pandoc will now act as if link references have been defined
81 for all headers without explicit identifiers.
87 Another link to [it][My header].
93 + Command macros now work everywhere, including non-math.
94 Environment macros still not supported.
95 + `\input` now works, as well as `\include`. TEXINPUTS is used.
96 Pandoc looks recursively into included files for more included files.
100 * The Markdown reader no longer puts the text of autolinks in a
101 `Code` inline. This means that autolinks will no longer appear
104 * The character `/` can now appear in markdown citation keys.
106 * HTML blocks in strict_markdown are no longer required to begin
107 at the left margin. Technically this is required, according to
108 the markdown syntax document, but `Markdown.pl` and other markdown
109 processors are more liberal.
111 * The `-V` option has been changed so that if there are duplicate
112 variables, those specified later on the command line take precedence.
114 * Tight lists now work in LaTeX and ConTeXt output.
116 * The LaTeX writer no longer relien on the `enumerate` package.
117 Instead, it uses standard LaTeX commands to change the list numbering
120 * The LaTeX writer now uses `longtable` instead of `ctable`. This allows
121 tables to be split over page boundaries.
123 * The RST writer now uses a line block to render paragraphs containing
124 linebreaks (which previously weren't supported at all).
126 * The markdown writer now applies the `--id-prefix` to footnote IDs.
129 * The plain writer no longer uses backslash-escaped line breaks
130 (which are not very "plain").
132 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Better error message for invalid UTF8.
133 Read bytestring and use `Text`'s decodeUtf8 instead of using
134 `System.IO.hGetContents`. This way you get a message saying
135 "invalid UTF-8 stream" instead of "invalid byte sequence."
136 You are also told which byte caused the problem.
138 * Docx, ODT, and EPUB writers now download images specified by a URL
139 instead of skipping them or raising an error.
143 + The default CSS now left-aligns headers by default, instead of
144 centering. This is more consistent with the rest of the writers.
145 + A proper multi-level table of contents is now used in `toc.ncx`.
146 There is no longer a subsidiary table of contents at the beginning
148 + Code highlighting now works by default.
149 + Section divs are used by default for better semantic markup.
150 + The title is used instead of "Title Page" in the table of contents.
151 Otherwise we have a hard-coded English string, which looks
152 strange in ebooks written in other languages. Closes #572.
156 + Put mathjax in span with class "math". Closes #562.
157 + Put citations in a span with class "citation." In HTML5, also include
158 a `data-cite` attribute with a space-separated list of citation
161 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: use universalNewlineMode in reading.
162 This treats both `\r\n` and `\n` as `\n` on input, no matter
163 what platform we're running on.
165 * Citation processing is now done in the Markdown and LaTeX
166 readers, not in `pandoc.hs`. This makes it easier for library users
171 * HTML: Added css to template to preserve spaces in `<code>` tags.
172 Thanks to Dirk Laurie.
174 * Beamer: Remove English-centric strings in section pages.
175 Section pages used to have "Section" and a number as well as the
176 section title. Now they just have the title. Similarly for part
177 and subsection. Closes #566.
179 * LaTeX, ConTeXt: Added papersize variable.
181 * LaTeX, Beamer templates: Use longtable instead of ctable.
183 * LaTeX, Beamer templates: Don't require 'float' package for tables.
184 We don't actually seem to use the '[H]' option.
186 * LaTeX: Use `upquote` package if it is available. This fixes
187 straight quotes in verbatim environments.
189 * Markdown, plain: Fixed titleblock so it is just a single string.
190 Previously separate title, author, and date variables were used,
191 but this didn't allow different kinds of title blocks.
195 + Rationalized templates. Previously there were three different
196 templates involved in epub production. There is now just one
197 template, `default.epub` or `default.epub3`. It can now be
198 overridden using `--template`, just like other templates.
199 The titlepage is now folded into the default template.
200 A `titlepage` variable selects it.
201 + UTF-8, lang tag, meta tags, title element.
203 * Added scale-to-width feature to beamer template
207 * `Text.Pandoc.Definition`: Added `Attr` field to `Header`.
208 Previously header identifers were autogenerated by the writers.
209 Now they are added in the readers (either automatically or explicitly).
211 * `Text.Pandoc.Builder`:
213 + `Inlines` and `Blocks` are now synonyms for `Many Inline` and
214 `Many Block`. `Many` is a newtype wrapper around `Seq`, with
215 custom Monoid instances for `Many Inline` and `Many Block. This
216 allows `Many` to be made an instance of `Foldable` and `Traversable`.
217 + The old `Listable` class has been removed.
218 + The module now exports `isNull`, `toList`, `fromList`.
219 + The old `Read` and `Show` instances have been removed; derived
220 instances are now used.
221 + Added `headerWith`.
223 * The readers now take a `ReaderOptions` rather than a `ParserState`
224 as a parameter. Indeed, not all parsers use the `ParserState` type;
225 some have a custom state. The motivation for this change was to separate
226 user-specifiable options from the accounting functions of parser state.
228 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Options`. This includes the `WriterOptions`
229 formerly in `Text.Pandoc.Shared`, and its associated
230 data types. It also includes a new type `ReaderOptions`, which
231 contains many options formerly in `ParserState`, and its associated
234 + `ParserState.stateParseRaw` -> `ReaderOptions.readerParseRaw`.
235 + `ParserState.stateColumns` -> `ReaderOptions.readerColumns`.
236 + `ParserState.stateTabStop` -> `ReaderOptions.readerTabStop`.
237 + `ParserState.stateOldDashes` -> `ReaderOptions.readerOldDashes`.
238 + `ParserState.stateLiterateHaskell` -> `ReaderOptions.readerLiterateHaskell`.
239 + `ParserState.stateCitations` -> `ReaderOptions.readerReferences`.
240 + `ParserState.stateApplyMacros` -> `ReaderOptions.readerApplyMacros`.
241 + `ParserState.stateIndentedCodeClasses` ->
242 `ReaderOptions.readerIndentedCodeClasses`.
243 + Added `ReaderOptions.readerCitationStyle`.
245 * `WriterOptions` now includes `writerEpubVersion`, `writerEpubChapterLevel`,
246 `writerEpubStylesheet`, `writerEpubFonts`, `writerReferenceODT`,
247 `writerReferenceDocx`, and `writerTOCDepth`. `writerEPUBMetadata` has
248 been renamed `writerEpubMetadata` for consistency.
250 * Changed signatures of `writeODT`, `writeDocx`, `writeEPUB`, since they no
251 longer stylesheet, fonts, reference files as separate parameters.
253 * Removed `writerLiterateHaskell` from `WriterOptions`, and
254 `readerLiterateHaskell` from `ReaderOptions`. LHS is now handled
255 by an extension (`Ext_literate_haskell`).
257 * Removed deprecated `writerXeTeX`.
259 * Removed `writerStrict` from `WriterOptions`. Added `writerExtensions`.
260 Strict is now handled through extensions.
262 * `Text.Pandoc.Options` exports `pandocExtensions`, `strictExtensions`,
263 `phpMarkdownExtraExtensions`, `githubMarkdownExtensions`,
264 and `multimarkdownExtensions`, as well as the `Extensions` type.
266 * New `Text.Pandoc.Readers.MediaWiki` module, exporting
269 * New `Text.Pandoc.Writers.FB2` module, exporting `writeFB2`
270 (thanks to Sergey Astanin).
274 + Added `getReader`, `getWriter` to `Text.Pandoc`.
275 + `writers` is now an association list `(String, Writer)`.
276 A `Writer` can be a `PureStringWriter`, an `IOStringWriter`, or
277 an `IOByteStringWriter`. ALL writers are now in the 'writers'
278 list, including the binary writers and FB2 writer. This allows
279 code in `pandoc.hs` to be simplified.
280 + Changed type of `readers`, so all readers are in IO.
281 Users who want pure readers can still get them form the reader
282 modules; this just affects the function `getReader` that looks up
283 a reader based on the format name. The point of this change is to
284 make it possible to print warnings from the parser.
286 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
288 + `Text.Parsec` now exports all Parsec functions used in pandoc code.
289 No other module directly imports Parsec. This will make it easier
290 to change the parsing backend in the future, if we want to.
291 + `Text.Parsec` is used instead of `Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec`.
292 + Export the type synonym `Parser`.
293 + Export `widthsFromIndices`, `NoteTable'`, `KeyTable'`, `Key'`, `toKey'`,
294 `withQuoteContext`, `singleQuoteStart`, `singleQuoteEnd`,
295 `doubleQuoteStart`, `doubleQuoteEnd`, `ellipses`, `apostrophe`,
296 `dash`, `nested`, `F(..)`, `askF`, `asksF`, `runF`, `lineBlockLines`.
297 + `ParserState` is no longer an instance of `Show`.
298 + Added `stateSubstitutions` and `stateWarnings` to `ParserState`.
299 + Generalized type of `withQuoteContext`.
300 + Added `guardEnabled`, `guardDisabled`, `getOption`.
301 + Removed `failIfStrict`.
302 + `lookupKeySrc` and `fromKey` are no longer exported.
304 * `Data.Default` instances are now provided for `ReaderOptions`,
305 `WriterOptions`, and `ParserState`. `Text.Pandoc` re-exports `def`.
306 Now you can use `def` (which is re-exported by `Text.Pandoc`) instead
307 of `defaultWriterOptions` (which is still defined). Closes #546.
309 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
312 + Renamed `removedLeadingTrailingSpace` to `trim`,
313 `removeLeadingSpace` to `triml`, and `removeTrailingSpace` to `trimr`.
314 + Count `\r` as space in `trim` functions.
315 + Moved `renderTags'` from HTML reader and `Text.Pandoc.SelfContained`
317 + Removed `failUnlessLHS`.
318 + Export `compactify'`, formerly in Markdown reader.
319 + Export `isTightList`.
320 + Do not export `findDataFile`.
321 + `readDataFile` now returns a strict ByteString.
322 + Export `readDataFileUTF8` which returns a String, like the
324 + Export `fetchItem` and `openURL`.
326 * `Text.Pandoc.ImageSize`: Use strict, not lazy bytestrings.
327 Removed `readImageSize`.
329 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Export `encodePath`, `decodePath`,
330 `decodeArg`, `toString`, `fromString`, `toStringLazy`,
333 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` is now an exposed module.
335 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
337 + csl parameter now a `String` rather than a `FilePath`.
338 + Changed type of `processBiblio`. It is no longer in the IO monad.
339 It now takes a `Maybe Style` argument rather than parameters for CSL
340 and abbrev filenames. (`pandoc.hs` now calls the functions to parse
341 the style file and add abbreviations.)
343 * Markdown reader now exports `readMarkdownWithWarnings`.
345 * `Text.Pandoc.RTF` now exports `writeRTFWithEmbeddedImages` instead of
350 * Make `--ascii` work properly with `--self-contained`. Closes #568.
354 + Fixed link parser to avoid exponential slowdowns. Closes #620.
355 Previously the parser would hang on input like this:
359 We fixed this by making the link parser parser characters
360 between balanced brackets (skipping brackets in inline code spans),
361 then parsing the result as an inline list. One change is that
363 [hi *there]* bud](/url)
365 is now no longer parsed as a link. But in this respect pandoc behaved
366 differently from most other implementations anyway, so that seems okay.
368 + Look for raw html/latex blocks before tables.
369 Otherwise the following gets parsed as a table:
380 + Added support for `:target:` on `.. image::` blocks
384 - Fixed field lists items with body beginning after a new line
386 - Allow any char but ':' in names of field lists in RST reader
388 - Don't allow line breaks in field names.
389 - Require whitespace after field list field names.
390 - Don't create empty definition list for metadata field lists.
391 Previously a field list consisting only of metadata fields (author,
392 title, date) would be parsed as an empty DefinitionList, which is
393 not legal in LaTeX and not needed in any format.
395 + Don't recognize inline-markup starts inside words.
396 For example, `2*2 = 4*1` should not contain an emphasized
397 section. Added test case for "Literal symbols". Closes #569.
398 + Allow dashes as separator in simple tables. Closes #555.
399 + Added support for `container`, `compound`, `epigraph`,
400 `rubric`, `highlights`, `pull-quote`.
401 + Added support for `.. code::`.
402 + Made directive labels case-insensitive.
403 + Removed requirement that directives begin at left margin.
404 This was (correctly) not in earlier releases; docutils doesn't
405 make the requirement.
406 + Added support for `replace::` and `unicode::` substitutions.
407 + Ignore unknown interpreted roles.
408 + Renamed image parser to `subst`, since it now handles all
409 substitution references.
413 + Allow newlines before pipes in table. Closes #654.
414 + Fixed bug with list items containing line breaks.
415 Now pandoc correctly handles hard line breaks inside list items.
416 Previously they broke list parsing.
417 + Implemented comment blocks.
418 + Fixed bug affected words ending in hyphen.
419 + Properly handle links with surrounding brackets.
420 Square brackets need to be used when the link isn't surrounded by
421 spaces or punctuation, or when the URL ending may be ambiguous.
423 + Removed nullBlock. Better to know about parsing problems than
424 to skip stuff when we get stuck.
425 + Allow ID attributes on headers.
426 + Textile reader: Avoid parsing dashes as strikeout.
434 would be parsed with strikeouts rather than dashes. This fixes
435 the problem by requiring that a strikeout delimiting - not be
436 followed by a -. Closes #631.
437 + Expanded list of `stringBreakers`.
438 This fixes a bug on input like "(_hello_)" which should
439 be a parenthesized emphasized "hello".
440 The new list is taken from the PHP source of textile 2.4.
441 + Fixed autolinks. Previously the textile reader and writer
442 incorrectly implented RST-style autolinks for URLs and email
443 addresses. This has been fixed. Now an autolink is done this way:
444 `"$":http://myurl.com`.
445 + Fixed footnotes bug in textile. This affected notes occuring
446 before punctuation, e.g. `foo[1].`. Closes #518.
450 + Better handling of citation commands.
451 + Better handling of `\noindent`.
452 + Added a 'try' in rawLaTeXBlock, so we can handle `\begin` without `{`.
454 + Made `rawLaTeXInline` try to parse block commands as well. This
455 is usually what we want, given how `rawLaTeXInline` is used in
456 the markdown and textile readers. If a block-level LaTeX command
457 is used in the middle of a paragraph (e.g. `\subtitle` inside a title),
458 we can treat it as raw inline LaTeX.
459 + Handle \slash command. Closes #605.
460 + Basic `\enquote` support.
461 + Fixed parsing of paragraphs beginning with a group. Closes #606.
462 + Use curly quotes for bare straight quotes.
463 + Support obeylines environment. Closes #604.
464 + Guard against "begin", "end" in inlineCommand and
466 + Better error messages for environments. Now it should tell you that
467 it was looking for \end{env}, instead of giving "unknown parse error."
471 + Added HTML 5 tags to list of block-level tags.
472 + HTML reader: Fixed bug in `htmlBalanced`, which
473 caused hangs in parsing certain markdown input using
475 + Parse `<q>` as `Quoted DoubleQuote`.
476 + Handle nested `<q>` tags properly.
477 + Modified `htmlTag` for fewer false positives.
478 A tag must start with `<` followed by `!`,`?`, `/`, or a letter.
479 This makes it more useful in the wikimedia and markdown parsers.
481 * DocBook reader: Support title in "figure" element. Closes #650.
485 + Remove newline after `<br/>` in translation of `LineBreak`
486 There's no particular need for a newline (other than making the
487 generated MediaWiki source look nice to a human), and in fact
488 sometimes it is incorrect: in particular, inside an enumeration, list
489 items cannot have embedded newline characters. (Brent Yorgey)
490 + Use `<code>` not `<tt>` for Code.
492 * Man writer: Escape `-` as `\-`.
493 Unescaped `-`'s become hyphens, while `\-`'s are left as ascii minus
494 signs. That is preferable for use with command-line options. See
495 <http://lintian.debian.org/tags/hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.html>. Thanks
496 to Andrea Bolognani for bringing the issue to our attention.
500 + Improved line block output. Use nonbreaking spaces for
501 initial indent (otherwise lost in HTML and LaTeX).
502 Allow multiple paragraphs in a single line block.
503 Allow soft breaks w continuations in line blocks.
504 + Properly handle images with no alt text. Closes #678.
505 + Fixed bug with links with duplicate text. We now (a) use anonymous
506 links for links with inline URLs, and (b) use an inline link instead
507 of a reference link if the reference link would require a label that
508 has already been used for a different link. Closes #511.
509 + Fixed hyperlinked images. Closes #611. Use `:target:`
510 field when you have a simple linked image.
511 + Don't add `:align: center` to figures.
513 * Texinfo writer: Fixed internal cross-references.
514 Now we insert anchors after each header, and use `@ref` instead of `@uref`
515 for links. Commas are now escaped as `@comma{}` only when needed;
516 previously all commas were escaped. (This change is needed, in part,
517 because `@ref` commands must be followed by a real comma or period.) Also
518 insert a blank line in from of `@verbatim` environments.
522 + Made --id-prefix work in DocBook as well as HTML.
524 + Don't include empty captions in figures. Closes #581.
528 + Use `\hspace*` for nonbreaking space after line break,
529 since `~` spaces after a line break are just ignored.
531 + Don't escape `_` in URLs or hyperref identifiers.
532 + Properly escape strings inside \url{}. Closes #576.
533 + Use `[fragile]` only for slides containing code rendered
534 using listings. Closes #649.
535 + Escape `|` as `\vert` in LaTeX math. This avoids a clash with
536 highlighting-kate's macros, which redefine `|` as a short verbatim
537 delimiter. Thanks to Björn Peemöller for raising this issue.
538 + Use minipage rather than parbox for block containers in tables.
539 This allows verbatim code to be included in grid tables.
541 + Prevent paragraphs containing only linebreaks or spaces.
545 + Included `highlighting-css` for code spans, too.
546 Previously it was only included if used in a code block. Closes #653.
547 + Improved line breaks with `<dd>` tags. We now put a newline between
548 `</dd>` and `<dd>` when there are multiple definitions.
549 + Changed mathjax cdn url so it doesn't use https. (This caused
550 problems when used with `--self-contained`.) See #609.
554 + `--number-sections` now works properly.
555 + Don't strip meta and link elements in epub metadata.
556 Patch from aberrancy. Closes #589.
557 + Fixed a couple validation bugs.
558 + Use ch001, ch002, etc. for chapter filenames. This improves sorting
559 of chapters in some readers, which apparently sort ch2 after ch10.
562 * ODT writer: properly set title property (Arlo O'Keeffe).
566 + Fixed bug with nested lists. Previously a list like
573 would come out with a bullet instead of "2."
574 Thanks to Russell Allen for reporting the bug.
575 + Use `w:cr` in `w:r` instead of `w:br` for linebreaks.
576 This seems to fix a problem viewing pandoc-generated
577 docx files in LibreOffice.
578 + Use integer ids for bookmarks. Closes #626.
579 + Added nsid to abstractNum elements. This helps when merging
580 word documents with numbered or bulleted lists. Closes #627.
581 + Use separate footnotes.xml for notes.
582 This seems to help LibreOffice convert the file, even though
583 it was valid docx before. Closes #637.
584 + Use rIdNN identifiers for r:embed in images.
585 + Avoid reading image files again when we've already processed them.
586 + Fixed typo in `referenc.docx` that prevented image captions from
587 working. Thanks to Huashan Chen.
589 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
591 + Fixed bug in `withRaw`, which didn't correctly handle the case
592 where nothing is parsed.
593 + Made `emailAddress` parser more correct. Now it is based on RFC 822,
594 though it still doesn't implement quoted strings in email addresses.
595 + Revised URI parser. It now allows many more schemes, allows
596 uppercase URIs, and better handles trailing punctuation and
597 trailing slashes in bare URIs. Added many tests.
598 + Simplified and improved singleQuoteStart. This makes `'s'`, `'l'`,
599 etc. parse properly. Formerly we had some English-centric heuristics,
600 but they are no longer needed. Closes #698.
602 * `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`: Added wide punctuation range to `charWidth`.
603 This fixes bug with Chinese commas in markdown and reST tables, and
604 a bug that caused combining characters to be dropped.
606 * `Text.Pandoc.MIME`: Added MIME types for .wof and .eot. Closes #640.
608 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
610 + Run `mvPunc` and `deNote` on metadata too.
611 This fixed a bug with notes on titles using footnote styles.
612 + Fixed bug in fetching CSL files from CSL data directory.
614 * `pandoc.hs`: Give correct value to `writerSourceDirectory` when a URL
615 is provided. It should be the URL up to the path.
617 * Fixed/simplified diff output for tests.
618 Biblio: Make sure mvPunc and deNote run on metadata too.
619 This fixed a bug with notes on titles using footnote styles.
621 [under the hood improvements]
623 * We no longer depend on `utf8-string`. Instead we use functions
624 defined in `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` that use `Data.Text`'s conversions.
626 * Use `safeRead` instead of using `reads` directly (various modules).
628 * "Implicit figures" (images alone in a paragraph) are now handled
629 differently. The markdown reader gives their titles the prefix `fig:`; the
630 writers look for this before treating the image as a figure. Though this
631 is a bit of a hack, it has two advantages: (i) implicit figures can be
632 limited to the markdown reader, and (ii) they can be deactivated by turning
633 off the `implicit_figures` extension.
635 * `catch` from `Control.Exception` is now used instead of the
638 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`: Improved algorithm for `normalizeSpaces`
639 and `oneOfStrings` (which is now non-backtracking).
641 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`: Remove workaround for `toCapital`.
642 Now citeproc-hs is fixed upstream, so this is no longer needed.
645 * Textile reader: Improved speed of `hyphenedWords`.
646 This speeds up the textile reader by about a factor of 4.
648 * Use `Text.Pandoc.Builder` in RST reader, for more flexibility,
649 better performance, and automatic normalization.
651 * Major rewrite of markdown reader:
653 + Use `Text.Pandoc.Builder` instead of lists. This also
654 means that everything is normalized automatically.
655 + Move to a one-pass parsing strategy, returning values in the reader
656 monad, which are then run (at the end of parsing) against the final
659 * In HTML writer, we now use `toHtml` instead of pre-escaping.
660 We work around the problem that blaze-html unnecessarily escapes `'`
661 by pre-escaping just the `'` characters, instead of the whole string.
662 If blaze-html later stops escaping `'` characters, we can simplify
663 `strToHtml` to `toHtml`. Closes #629.
665 * Moved code for embedding images in RTFs from `pandoc.hs` to the
666 RTF writer (which now exports `writeRTFWithEmbeddedImages`).
668 * Moved citation processing from `pandoc.hs` into the readers.
669 This makes things more convenient for library users.
671 * The man pages are now built by an executable `make-pandoc-man-pages`,
672 which has its own stanza in the cabal file so that dependencies can be
673 handled by Cabal. Special treatment in `Setup.hs` ensures that this
674 executable never gets installed; it is only used to create the man pages.
676 * The cabal file has been modified so that the pandoc library is used
677 in building the pandoc executable. (This required moving `pandoc.hs`
678 from `src` to `.`.) This cuts compile time in half.
680 * `-O2` is no longer used in building pandoc. The performance improvement
681 it yields is so slight that it is not worth it. (Measured with
682 benchmarks on ghc 7.4.)
684 * The `executable` and `library` flags have been removed.
686 * `-threaded` has been removed from ghc-options.
688 * Version bounds of dependencies have been raised, and the
689 `blaze_html_0_5` flag now defaults to True. Pandoc now compiles on
692 * We now require base >= 4.2.
694 * Integrated the benchmark program into cabal. One can now do:
696 cabal configure --enable-benchmarks && cabal build
697 cabal bench --benchmark-option='markdown' --benchmark-option='-s 20'
699 The benchmark now uses README + testsuite, so benchmark results
700 from older versions aren't comparable.
702 * Integrated test suite with cabal.
703 To run tests, configure with `--enable-tests`, then `cabal test`.
704 You can specify particular tests using `--test-options='-t markdown'`.
705 No output is shown unless tests fail. The Haskell test modules
706 have been moved from `src/` to `tests/`.
708 * Moved all data files and templates to the `data/` subdirectory.
710 * Added an `embed_data_files` cabal flag. This causes all
711 data files to be embedded in the binary, so that the binary
712 is self-sufficient and can be relocated anywhere, copied on
713 a USB key, etc. The Windows installer now uses this.
714 (Since we no longer have the option to build the executable
715 without the library, this is the only way to get a relocatable
718 * Removed pcre3.dll from windows package.
719 It isn't needed unless highlighting-kate is compilled with the
720 `pcre-light` flag. By default, regex-prce-builtin is used.
725 * Don't encode/decode file paths if base >= 4.4.
726 Prior to base 4.4, filepaths and command line arguments were treated
727 as unencoded lists of bytes, not unicode strings, so we had to work
728 around that by encoding and decoding them. This commit adds CPP
729 checks for the base version that intelligibly enable encoding/decoding
730 when needed. Fixes a bug with multilingual filenames when pandoc was
731 compiled with ghc 7.4 (#540).
733 * Don't generate an empty H1 after hrule slide breaks.
734 We now use a slide-level header with contents `[Str "\0"]` to mark
735 an hrule break. This avoids creation of an empty H1 in these
736 contexts. Closes #484.
738 * Docbook reader: Added support for "bold" emphasis. Thanks to mb21.
740 * In make_osx_package.sh, ensure citeproc-hs is built with the
741 embed_data_files flag.
743 * MediaWiki writer: Avoid extra blank lines after sublists (Gavin Beatty).
745 * ConTeXt writer: Don't escape `&`, `^`, `<`, `>`, `_`,
746 simplified escapes for `}` and `{` to `\{` and `\}` (Aditya Mahajan).
748 * Fixed handling of absolute URLs in CSS imports with `--self-contained`.
751 * Added webm to mime types. Closes #543.
753 * Added some missing exports and tests to the cabal file
754 (Alexander V Vershilov).
756 * Compile with `-rtsopts` and `-threaded` by default.
760 * Markdown reader: Added `cf.` and `cp.` to list of likely abbreviations.
762 * LaTeX template: Added `linkcolor`, `urlcolor` and `links-as-notes`
763 variables. Make TOC links black.
765 * LaTeX template improvements.
767 + Don't print date unless one is given explicitly in the document.
768 + Simplified templates.
769 + Use fontenc [T1] by default, and lmodern.
770 + Use microtype if available.
774 + Add comma to beginning of bare suffix, e.g. `@item1 [50]`.
775 Motivation: `@item1 [50]` should be as close as possible to
777 + Added workaround for a bug in citeproc-hs 0.3.4 that causes footnotes
778 beginning with a citation to be empty. Closes #531.
780 * Fixed documentation on mixed lists. Closes #533.
784 * Simplified `Text.Pandoc.Biblio` and fixed bugs with citations inside
785 footnotes and captions. We now handle note citations by inserting
786 footnotes during initial citation processing, and doing a separate
787 pass later to remove notes inside notes.
789 * Added 'zenburn' highlight style from highlighting-kate.
791 * Added Slideous writer. Slideous is an HTML + javascript slide show
792 format, similar to Slidy, but works with IE 7. (Jonas Smedegaard)
796 + Ensure we don't have extra blank lines at ends of cells.
797 This can cause LaTeX errors, as they are interpreted as new paragraphs.
798 + More consistent interblock spacing.
799 + Require highlighting-kate >= 0.5.1, for proper highlighted inline
800 code in LaTeX. Closes #527.
801 + Ensure that a Verbatim at the end of a footnote is followed by
802 a newline. (Fixes a regression in the previous version.)
803 + In default template, use black for internal links and TOC.
804 Added commented-out code to use footnotes for links, as would
805 be suitable in print output.
807 * Beamer writer: When `--incremental` is used, lists inside
808 a block quote should appear all at once. (This makes Beamer
809 output consistent with the HTML slide show formats.)
813 + Escape `%` as `\letterpercent{}` not `\letterpercent `,
814 to avoid gobbling spaces after the `%` sign.
815 + Ensure space after `\stopformula`.
819 + Use `:` form instead of `~` in definition lists, for better
820 compatibility with other markdown implementations.
821 + Don't wrap the term, because it breaks definition lists.
822 + Use a nonzero space to prevent false recognition
823 of list marker in ordered lists. Closes #516.
825 * Org writer: Add space before language name. Closes #523.
827 * Docx writer: Simplified bullet characters so they work properly
828 with Word 2007. Closes #520.
830 * LaTeX reader: Support `\centerline`.
832 * RST reader: handle figures. Closes #522.
834 * Textile reader: fix for `<notextile>` and `==`. Closes #517.
839 * Fixed bug in `fromEntities`. The previous version would turn
840 `hi & low you know;` into `hi &`.
844 + Don't skip nonbreaking spaces.
845 Previously a paragraph containing just ` ` would be rendered
846 as an empty paragraph. Thanks to Paul Vorbach for pointing out the bug.
847 + Support `<col>` and `<caption>` in tables. Closes #486.
851 + Don't recognize references inside delimited code blocks.
852 + Allow list items to begin with lists.
854 * Added basic docbook reader (John MacFarlane and Mauro Bieg).
858 + Handle `\bgroup`, `\egroup`, `\begingroup`, `\endgroup`.
859 + Control sequences can't be followed by a letter.
860 This fixes a bug where `\begingroup` was parsed as `\begin`
862 + Parse 'dimension' arguments to unknown commands. e.g. `\parindent0pt`
863 + Make `\label` and `\ref` sensitive to `--parse-raw`.
864 If `--parse-raw` is selected, these will be parsed as raw latex
865 inlines, rather than bracketed text.
866 + Don't crash on unknown block commands (like `\vspace{10pt}`)
867 inside `\author`; just skip them. Closes #505.
871 + Implemented literal escapes with `==` and `<notextile>`. Closes #473.
872 + Added support for LaTeX blocks and inlines (Paul Rivier).
873 + Better conformance to RedCloth inline parsing (Paul Rivier).
874 + Parse '+text+' as emphasized (should be underlined, but this
875 is better than leaving literal plus characters in the output.
877 * Docx writer: Fixed multi-paragraph list items. Previously they each
878 got a list marker. Closes #457.
882 + Added `--no-tex-ligatures` option to avoid replacing
883 quotation marks and dashes with TeX ligatures.
884 + Use `fixltx2e` package to provide '\textsubscript'.
885 + Improve spacing around LaTeX block environments:
886 quote, verbatim, itemize, description, enumerate.
888 + Use blue instead of pink for URL links in latex/pdf output.
890 * ConTeXt writer: Fixed escaping of `%`.
891 In text, `%` needs to be escaped as `\letterpercent`, not `\%`
892 Inside URLs, `%` needs to be escaped as `\%`
893 Thanks to jmarca and adityam for the fix. Closes #492.
895 * Texinfo writer: Escape special characters in node titles.
896 This fixes a problem pointed out by Joost Kremers. Pandoc used
897 to escape an '@' in a chapter title, but not in the corresponding
898 node title, leading to invalid texinfo.
900 * Fixed document encoding in texinfo template.
901 Resolves Debian Bug #667816.
905 + Don't force delimited code blocks to be flush left.
906 Fixes bug with delimited code blocks inside lists etc.
907 + Escape `<` and `$`.
909 * LaTeX writer: Use `\hyperref[ident]{text}` for internal links.
910 Previously we used `\href{\#ident}{text}`, which didn't work on
911 all systems. Thanks to Dirk Laurie.
913 * RST writer: Don't wrap link references. Closes #487.
915 * Updated to use latest versions of blaze-html, mtl.
922 + Made `lstlisting` work as a proper verbatim environment.
923 + Fixed bug parsing LaTeX tables with one column.
927 + Use `{}` around `ctable` caption, so that formatting can be used.
928 + Don't require eurosym package unless document has a €.
930 * LaTeX template: Added variables for `geometry`, `romanfont`,
931 `sansfont`, `mathfont`, `mainfont` so users can more easily
936 + Run latex engine at least two times, to ensure
937 that PDFs will have hyperlinked bookmarks.
938 + Added PDF metadata (title,author) in LaTeX standalone + PDF output.
940 * Texinfo writer: retain directories in image paths. (Peter Wang)
942 * RST writer: Better handling of inline formatting, in accord
943 with docutils' "inline markup recognition rules" (though we don't
944 implement the unicode rules fully). Now `hi*there*hi` gets
945 rendered properly as `hi\ *there*\ hi`, and unnecessary
946 `\ ` are avoided around `:math:`, `:sub:`, `:sup:`.
950 + Parse `\ ` as null, not escaped space.
951 + Allow `` :math:`...` `` even when not followed by blank
952 or `\`. This does not implement the complex rule docutils follows,
953 but it should be good enough for most purposes.
954 + Add support for the rST default-role directive. (Greg Maslov)
956 * Text.Pandoc.Parsing: Added `stateRstDefaultRole` field to `ParserState`.
959 * Markdown reader: Properly handle citations nested in other inline
962 * Markdown writer: don't replace empty alt in image with "image".
964 * DZSlides: Updated template.html and styles in default template.
965 Removed bizarre CSS for `q` in dzslides template.
967 * Avoid repeated `id` attribute in section and header in HTML slides.
969 * README improvements: new instructions on internal links,
970 removed misleading note on reST math.
974 + Fixed Windows installer so that dzslides works.
975 + Removed stripansi.sh.
976 + Added .travis.yml for Travis continuous integration support..
977 + Fixed upper bound for zlib (Sergei Trofimovich).
978 + Fixed upper bound for test-framework.
979 + Updated haddocks for haddock-2.10 (Sergei Trofimovich).
983 * Added `beamer+lhs` as output format.
985 * Don't escape `<` in `<style>` tags with `--self-contained`.
986 This fixes a bug which prevented highlighting from working
987 when using `--self-contained`.
989 * PDF: run latex engine three times if `--toc` specified.
990 This fixes page numbers in the table of contents.
992 * Docx writer: Added TableNormal style to tables.
994 * LaTeX math environment fixes. `aligned` is now used instead of
995 the nonexistent `aligned*`. `multline` instead of the nonexistent
998 * LaTeX writer: Use `\textasciitilde` for literal `~`.
1000 * HTML writer: Don't escape contents of EQ tags with --gladtex.
1001 This fixes a regression from 1.8.
1003 * Use `<q>` tags for Quoted items for HTML5 output.
1004 The quote style can be changed by modifying the template
1005 or including a css file. A default quote style is included.
1007 * LaTeX reader: Fixed accents (\~{a}, `\c{c}`).
1008 Correctly handle \^{}. Support "minted" as a LaTeX verbatim block.
1010 * Updated LaTeX template for better language support.
1011 Use `polyglossia` instead of `babel` with xetex.
1012 Set `lang` as documentclass option.
1013 `\setmainlanguage` will use the last of a comma-separated
1014 list of languages. Thanks to François Gannaz.
1016 * Fixed default LaTeX template so `\euro` and `€` work. The
1017 `eurosym` package is needed if you are using pdflatex.
1019 * Fixed escaping of period in man writer (thanks to Michael Thompson).
1021 * Fixed list label positions in beamer.
1023 * Set `mainlang` variable in context writer.
1024 This parallels behavior of latex writer. `mainlang` is the last
1025 of a comma-separated list of languages in lang.
1027 * EPUB language metadat: convert e.g. `en_US` from locale to `en-US`.
1029 * Changed `-V` so that you can specify a key without a value.
1030 Such keys get the value `true`.
1032 * Fixed permissions on installed man pages - thanks Magnus Therning.
1034 * Windows installer: require XP or higher. The installer is
1035 now compiled on a Windows 7 machine, which fixes a problem
1036 using citation functions on Windows 7.
1038 * OSX package: Check for 64-bit Intel CPU before installing.
1042 * Better handling of raw latex environments in markdown. Now
1048 turns into a raw latex block as expected.
1050 * Improvements to LaTeX reader:
1052 + Skip options after block commands.
1053 + Correctly handle `{\\}` in braced.
1054 + Added a needed 'try'.
1055 + Citations: add `, ` to suffix if it doesn't start with space or
1056 punctuation. Otherwise we get no space between the year and the
1057 suffix in author-date styles.
1059 * Added two needed data files for S5. This fixes a problem with
1060 `pandoc -t s5 --self-contained`. Also removed `slides.min.js`,
1061 which was no longer being used.
1063 * Fixed some minor problems in `reference.docx`:
1064 name on "Date" style, `xCs` instead of `xIs`.
1066 * Fixed a problem creating docx files using a reference docx
1067 modified using Word. The problem seems to be that Word
1068 modifies `_rels/.rels`, changing the Type of the Relationship to
1069 `docProps/core.xml`. Pandoc now changes this back to the correct
1070 value if it has been altered, fixing the problem.
1072 * Fixed html5 template so it works properly with highlighting.
1078 + Fixed regression in 1.9; properly handle escaped $ in latex math.
1079 + Put LaTeX verse environments in blockquotes.
1083 + Limit nesting of strong/emph. This avoids exponential lookahead
1084 in parasitic cases, like `a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**`.
1085 + Improved attributes syntax (inn code blocks/spans):
1086 (1) Attributes can contain line breaks. (2) Values in key-value
1087 attributes can be surrounded by either double or single quotes, or
1088 left unquoted if they contain no spaces.
1090 * Don't wrap headers in markdown or RST writers.
1092 * Added `stateMaxNestingLevel` to `ParserState`.
1093 We set this to 6, so you can still have `Emph` inside `Emph`,
1094 just not indefinitely.
1096 * More efficient implementation of `nowrap` in `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`.
1098 * `Text.Pandoc.PDF`: Only run latex twice if `\tableofcontents`
1101 * Require highlighting-kate >= 0.5.0.2, texmath >= 0.6.0.2.
1105 * Changed cabal file so that build-depends for the test program
1106 are not required unless the tests flag is used.
1108 * LaTeX writer: insert `{}` between adjacent hyphens so they don't
1109 form ligatures (dashes) in code spans.
1113 * Raised version bound on test-framework to avoid problems
1114 compiling tests on GHC 7.4.1.
1116 * LaTeX reader: Use raw LaTeX as fallback inline text for Cites,
1117 so citations don't just disappear unless you process with
1118 citeproc. Ignore `\bibliographystyle`, `\nocite`.
1120 * Simplified tex2pdf; it will always run latex twice to
1121 resolve table of contents and hyperrefs.
1125 * Require Cabal >= 1.10.
1126 * Tweaked cabal file to meet Cabal 1.10 requirements.
1130 * Allow build with json 0.4 or 0.5. Otherwise we can't build with
1137 * Added a Microsoft Word `docx` writer. The writer includes support
1138 for highlighted code and for math (which is converted from TeX to OMML,
1139 Office's native math markup language, using texmath's new OMML module).
1140 A new option `--reference-docx` allows the user to customize the
1143 * Added an `asciidoc` writer (<http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/>).
1145 * Better support for slide shows:
1147 + Added a `dzslides` writer. DZSlides is a lightweight HTML5/javascript
1148 slide show format due to Paul Rouget (<http://paulrouget.com/dzslides/>).
1150 + Added a LaTeX `beamer` writer. Beamer is a LaTeX package for creating
1151 slide presentations.
1153 + New, flexible rules for dividing documents into sections and slides
1154 (see the "Structuring the slide show" in the User's Guide). These
1155 are backward-compatible with the old rules, but they allow slide
1156 shows to be organized into sections and subsections containing
1159 + A new `--slide-level` option allows users to override defaults
1160 and select a slide level below the first header level with content.
1162 * A new `--self-contained` option produces HTML output that does not
1163 depend on an internet connection or the presence of any external
1164 files. Linked images, CSS, and javascript is downloaded (or fetched
1165 locally) and encoded in `data:` URIs. This is useful for making portable
1166 `HTML slide shows. The --offline` option has been deprecated and is now
1167 `treated as a synonym or --self-contained`.
1169 * Support for PDF output:
1171 + Removed the old `markdown2pdf`.
1172 + `pandoc` can now create PDFs (assuming you have latex and a set of
1173 appropriate packages installed): just specify an output file with the
1175 + A new option `--latex-engine` allows you to specify `pdflatex`,
1176 `xelatex`, or `lualatex` as the processor.
1178 * Highlighting changes:
1180 + Syntax highlighting is now a standard feature; the `highlighting`
1181 flag is no longer needed when compiling.
1182 + A new `--no-highlight` option allows highlighting to be disabled.
1183 + Highlighting now works in `docx`, `latex`, and `epub`, as well as
1184 `html`, `html5`, `dzslides`, `s5`, and `slidy`.
1185 + A new `--highlight-style` option selects between various highlighting
1188 * Internal links to sections now work in ConTeXt and LaTeX as well as HTML.
1190 * LaTeX `\include` and `\usepackage` commands are now processed,
1191 provided the files are in the working directory.
1193 * EPUB improvements:
1195 + Internal and external links now work in EPUB.
1196 + Raw HTML is allowed.
1197 + New `--epub-embed-font` option.
1198 + Customizable templates for EPUB pages offer more control over
1199 formatting: `epub-page.html`, `epub-coverimage.html`,
1200 `epub-titlepage.html`.
1202 * `--mathml` now works with DocBook.
1204 * Added support for math in RST reader and writer. Inline math uses the
1205 `` :math:`...` `` construct. Display math uses
1209 or if the math is multiline,
1215 These constructions are now supported now by `rst2latex.py`.
1217 * Github syntax for fenced code blocks is supported in pandoc's
1218 markdown. You can now write
1230 * Easier scripting: a new `toJsonFilter` function makes it easier to
1231 write Haskell scripts to manipulate the Pandoc AST.
1235 * Fixed parsing of consecutive lists in markdown.
1236 Pandoc previously behaved like Markdown.pl for consecutive
1237 lists of different styles. Thus, the following would be parsed
1238 as a single ordered list, rather than an ordered list followed
1239 by an unordered list:
1247 This change makes pandoc behave more sensibly, parsing this as
1248 two lists. Any change in list type (ordered/unordered) or in
1249 list number style will trigger a new list. Thus, the following
1250 will also be parsed as two lists:
1258 Since we regard this as a bug in Markdown.pl, and not something
1259 anyone would ever rely on, we do not preserve the old behavior
1260 even when `--strict` is selected.
1262 * Dashes work differently with `--smart`: `---` is always em-dash,
1263 and `--` is always en-dash. Pandoc no longer tries to guess when
1264 `-` should be en-dash. *Note:* This may change how existing documents
1265 look when processed with pandoc. A new option, `--old-dashes`,
1266 is provided for legacy documents.
1268 * The markdown writer now uses setext headers for levels 1-2.
1269 The old behavior (ATX headers for all levels) can be restored
1270 using the new `--atx-headers` option.
1272 * Links are now allowed in markdown image captions. They are also
1273 allowed in links, but will appear there as regular text. So,
1275 [link with [link](/url)](/url)
1279 <p><a href="/url">link with link</a></p>
1281 * Improved handling of citations using `citeproc-hs-0.3.4`.
1282 Added `--citation-abbreviations` option.
1284 * Citation keys can no longer end with a punctuation character.
1285 This means that `@item1.` will be parsed as a citation with key
1286 'item1', followed by a period, instead of a citation with key
1287 'item1.', as was the case previously.
1289 * In HTML output, citations are now put in a span with class `citation`.
1291 * The markdown reader now recognizes DocBook block and inline tags.
1292 It was always possible to include raw DocBook tags in a markdown
1293 document, but now pandoc will be able to distinguish block from
1294 inline tags and behave accordingly. Thus, for example,
1300 will not be wrapped in `<para>` tags.
1302 * The LaTeX parser has been completely rewritten; it is now much more
1303 accurate, robust, and extensible. However, there are two important
1304 changes in how it treats unknown LaTeX. (1) Previously, unknown
1305 environments became BlockQuote elements; now, they are treated
1306 as "transparent", so `\begin{unknown}xyz\end{unknown}` is the
1307 same as `xyz`. (2) Previously, arguments of unknown commands
1308 were passed through with their braces; now the braces are stripped
1311 * `--smart` is no longer selected automatically with `man` output.
1313 * The deprecated `--xetex` option has been removed.
1315 * The `--html5`/`-5` option has been deprecated. Use `-t html5`
1316 instead. `html5` and `html5+lhs` are now separate output formats.
1318 * Single quotes are no longer escaped in HTML output. They do not
1319 need to be escaped outside of attributes.
1321 * Pandoc will no longer transform leading newlines in code
1322 blocks to `<br/>` tags.
1324 * The ODT writer now sizes images appropriately, using the image
1325 size and DPI information embedded in the image.
1327 * `--standalone` is once again implicitly for a non-text output format
1328 (ODT, EPUB). You can again do `pandoc test.txt -o test.odt`
1329 and get a standalone ODT file.
1331 * The Docbook writer now uses `<sect1>`, `<sect2>`, etc. instead of
1334 * The HTML writer now uses `<del>` for strikeout.
1336 * In HTML output with `--section-divs`, the classes `section` and
1337 `level[1,2,..6]` are put on the `div` tags so they can be styled.
1338 In HTML 5 output with `--section-divs`, the classes
1339 `level[1,2,...6]` are put on `section` tags.
1341 * EPUB writer changes:
1343 + The `lang` variable now sets the language
1344 in the metadata (if it is not set, we default to the locale).
1345 + EPUB: UTF-8 is used rather than decimal entities.
1347 * Added `titleslide` class to title slide in S5 template.
1349 * In HTML, EPUB, and docx metadata, the date is normalized into
1350 YYYY-MM-DD format if possible. (This is required for validation.)
1352 * Attributes in highlighted code blocks are now preserved in HTML.
1353 The container element will have the classes, id, and key-value attributes
1354 you specified in the delimited code block. Previously these were stripped
1357 * The reference backlink in the HTML writer no longer has a special
1358 `footnoteBacklink` class.
1360 * The HTML template has been split into `html` and `html5` templates.
1362 * Author and date are treated more consistently in HTML templates.
1363 Authors are now `<h2>`, date `<h3>`.
1365 * URLs are hyphenated in the ConTeXt writer (B. Scott Michel).
1367 * In `Text.Pandoc.Builder`, `+++` has been replaced by `<>`.
1371 * Better support for combining characters and East Asian wide characters
1372 in markdown and reST.
1374 * Better handling of single quotes with `--smart`.
1375 Previously `D'oh l'*aide*` would be parsed with left and right single
1376 quotes instead of apostrophes. This kind of error is now fixed.
1378 * Highlighting: Use `reads` instead of `read` for better error handling.
1379 Fixes crash on `startNum="abc"`.
1381 * Added blank comment after directives in rst template.
1383 * Unescape entities in citation `refId`. The `refId`s coming
1384 from citeproc contain XML numeric entities, and these don't match with the
1385 citation keys parsed by pandoc. Solution is to unescape them.
1387 * HTML reader: Fixed bug parsing tables with both thead and tbody.
1391 + Better handling of escapes in link URLs and titles.
1392 + Fixed backslash escapes in reference links.
1393 + Fixed bug in table/hrule parsing, by checking that the top
1394 line of a table is not followed by a blank line. This bug caused
1395 slowdowns on some files with hrules and tables, as pandoc tried to
1396 interpret the hrules as the tops of multiline tables.
1397 + Fixed bug in code block attribute parser. Previously the ID attribute
1398 got lost if it didn't come first. Now attributes can come in any order.
1400 * RST reader: allow footnotes followed by newline without space characters.
1404 + Ignore empty groups {}, { }.
1405 + LaTeX reader: Handle \@.
1406 + LaTeX reader: Don't crash on commands like `\itemsep`.
1407 + LaTeX reader: Better handling of letter environments.
1409 * RST writer: Fixed bug involving empty table cells. isSimple was being
1410 calculated in a way that assumed there were no non-empty cells.
1414 + Made `--toc` work even without `--number-sections`.
1415 + Escape # in link URLs.
1416 + Use buffering for footnotes containing code blocks.
1417 + Changed 'descr' to 'description', fixed alignment.
1421 + Escape euro character.
1422 + Don't escape ~ inside href{...}.
1423 + Escape # in href URLs.
1424 + Improved detection of book classes. We now check the
1425 `documentclass` variable, and if that is not set, we look through
1426 the template itself. Also, we have added the KOMA classes scrreprt
1427 and scrbook. You can now make a book using
1428 `pandoc -V documentclass:book mybook.txt -o mybook.pdf`
1429 + LHS files now set the "listings" variable, so that the definition
1430 of the `code` environment will be included in the template.
1431 + Links are colored blue by default (this can be changed by
1432 modifying `hyperref` settings in the template).
1433 + Added `lang` variable to LaTeX template.
1437 + Fixed bug in HTML template with html5 and mathml.
1438 + Don't use self-closing img, br, hr tags for HTML5.
1439 + Use `<section>` for footnotes if HTML5.
1440 + Update HTML templates to use Content-Style-Type meta tag.
1441 + Use separate variables for meta-date, meta-author.
1442 This makes footnotes work in author and date fields.
1443 + Use 'vertical-align:middle' in WebTeX math for better alignment.
1445 * S5/slidy writer: Make footnotes appear on separate slide at end.
1447 * MIME: Added 'layout-cache' to getMimeType. This ensures that the
1448 META-INF/manifest.xml for ODT files will have everything it needs, so
1449 that ODT files modified by LibreOffice can be used as `--reference-odt`.
1451 * `Text.Pandoc.Templates`: Return empty string for json template.
1453 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
1455 + Expand citations recursively inside nested inlines.
1456 + Treat `\160` as space when parsing locator and suffix.
1457 This fixes a bug with "p. 33" when `--smart` is used. Previously
1458 the whole "p. 33" would be included in the suffix, with no locator.
1459 + Put whole author-in-text citation in a Cite. Previously just the
1460 date and other info went in the Cite.
1461 + Don't add comma+space to prefix if it ends in punctuation.
1463 * Updated chicago-author-date.csl. The old version did not work
1464 properly for edited volumes with no author.
1468 + Add date to EPUB titlepage and metadata.
1469 + Added TOC identifier in EPUB page template.
1470 + Don't generate superfluous file `cover-image.jpg`.
1472 [under the hood improvements]
1474 * Modified `make_osx_package.sh` to use cabal-dev.
1475 Items are no longer installed as root.
1476 Man pages are zipped and given proper permissions.
1478 * Modified windows installer generater to use cabal-dev.
1480 * Setup: Making man pages now works with cabal-dev (at least on OSX). In
1481 Setup.hs we now invoke 'runghc' in a way that points it to the correct
1482 package databases, instead of always falling back to the default user
1485 * Updated to work with GHC 7.4.1.
1487 * Removed dependency on old-time.
1489 * Removed dependency on dlist.
1491 * New slidy directory for "self-contained."
1493 * TeXMath writer: Use unicode thin spaces for thin spaces.
1495 * Markdown citations: don't strip off initial space in locator.
1499 * Removed `Apostrophe`, `EmDash`, `EnDash`, and `Ellipses`
1500 from the native `Inline` type in pandoc-types. Now we use `Str`
1501 elements with unicode.
1503 * Improvements to `Text.Pandoc.Builder`:
1505 + `Inlines` and `Blocks` are now newtypes (not synonyms for
1507 + Instances are defined for `IsString`, `Show`, `Read`, `Monoid`,
1508 and a new `Listable` class, which allows these to be manipulated
1509 to some extent like lists. Monoid append includes automatic
1511 + `+++` has been replaced by `<>` (mappend).
1513 * Use blaze-html instead of xhtml for HTML generation.
1514 This changes the type of `writeHtml`.
1516 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
1518 + Added `warn` and `err`.
1519 + Removed `unescapeURI`, modified `escapeURI`.
1520 (See under [behavior changes], above.)
1522 * Changes in URI escaping: Previously the readers escaped URIs by
1523 converting unicode characters to octets and then percent encoding.
1524 Now unicode characters are left as they are, and `escapeURI` only
1525 percent-encodes space characters. This gives more readable
1526 URIs, and works well with modern user agents. URIs are no longer unescaped
1527 at all on conversion to `markdown`, `asciidoc`, `rst`, `org`.
1529 * New module `Text.Pandoc.SelfContained`.
1531 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Docx`.
1533 * New module `Text.Pandoc.PDF`.
1535 * Added `writerBeamer` to `WriterOptions`.
1537 * Added `normalizeDate` to `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
1539 * Added `splitStringWithIndices` in `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
1540 This is like `splitWithIndices`, but it is sensitive to distinctions
1541 between wide, combining, and regular characters.
1543 * `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`:
1545 + Added `chomp` combinator.
1546 + Added `beforeNonBreak` combinator. This allows you to include
1547 something conditionally on it being before a nonblank.
1548 Used for RST inline math.
1549 + Added `charWidth` function. All characters marked W or F in the unicode
1550 spec EastAsianWidth.txt get width 2.
1551 + Added `realLength`, based on `charWidth`. `realLength` is now
1552 used in calculating offsets.
1554 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Slides`, for common functions for breaking
1555 a document into slides.
1557 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.S5`, which is no longer needed.
1559 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences`. Moved
1560 `characterReference` to `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
1561 `decodeCharacterReferences` is replaced by `fromEntities`
1562 in `Text.Pandoc.XML`.
1564 * Added `Text.Pandoc.ImageSize`. This is intened for use
1565 in `docx` and `odt` writers, so the size and dpi of images
1568 * Removed `writerAscii` in `WriterOptions`.
1570 * Added `writerHighlight` to `WriterOptions`.
1572 * Added `DZSlides` to `HTMLSlideVariant`.
1574 * `writeEPUB` has a new argument for font files to embed.
1576 * Added `stateLastStrPos` to `ParserState`. This lets us keep track
1577 of whether we're parsing the position immediately after a regular
1578 (non-space, non-symbol) string, which is useful for distinguishing
1579 apostrophes from single quote starts.
1581 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
1583 + `escaped` now returns a `Char`.
1584 + Removed `charsInBalanced'`, added a character parser as
1585 a parameter of `charsInBalanced`. This is needed for
1586 proper handling of escapes, etc.
1589 * Added `toEntities` to `Text.Pandoc.XML`.
1591 * `Text.Pandoc.Readers.LaTeX`:
1593 + Export `handleIncludes`.
1594 + Export `rawLaTeXBlock` instead of `rawLaTeXEnvironment'`.
1596 * Added `ToJsonFilter` class and `toJsonFilter` function to
1597 `Text.Pandoc`, deprecating the old `jsonFilter` function.
1599 * `Text.Pandoc.Highlighting`:
1601 + Removed `highlightHtml`, `defaultHighlightingCss`.
1602 + Export `formatLaTeXInline`, `formatLaTeXBlock`, and `highlight`, plus
1603 key functions from highlighting-kate.
1604 + Changed types of highlighting function. `highlight` returns a
1605 `Maybe`, not an `Either`.
1609 * Relaxed cabal consntraints for test-framework (S. Trofimovich).
1611 * Relaxed cabal constraints for pandoc-types.
1613 * Adjusted Arbitrary instance to help avoid timeouts in tests.
1615 * Added `Tests.Writers.Markdown` to cabal file.
1619 * Added script to produce OS X package.
1621 * Made `templates` directory a git submodule. This should make it
1622 easier for people to revise their custom templates when the default
1625 * Changed template naming scheme: `FORMAT.template` -> `default.FORMAT`.
1626 **Note:** If you have existing templates in `~/.pandoc/templates`, you
1627 must rename them to conform to the new scheme!
1629 * Fixed smart quotes bug, now handling `'...hi'` properly.
1633 + Partial support for labeled footnotes.
1634 + Improved accuracy of `simpleReferenceName` parser.
1638 + Substitute correct unicode characters for
1639 characters in the 128..159 range, which are often found even in
1640 HTML that purports to be UTF-8.
1642 * LaTeX reader: Handle `\subtitle` command (a subtitle is added
1643 to the title, after a colon and linebreak). Closes #280.
1645 * Leaner `reference.odt`.
1647 * Added unexported module `Text.Pandoc.MIME` for use in
1650 * ODT writer: Construct `manifest.xml` based on archive contents.
1651 This fixes a bug in ODTs containing images. Recent versions of
1652 LibreOffice would reject these as corrupt, because `manifest.xml`
1653 did not contain a reference to the image files.
1657 + Make verbatim environments flush to avoid spurious
1658 blank lines. Closes #277.
1659 + Use `\texttt` and escapes insntead of `\verb!...!`, which
1660 is too fragile (doesn't work in command arguments).
1661 + Use `\enquote{}` for quotes if the template includes
1662 the `csquotes` package. This provides better support for
1663 local quoting styles. (Thanks to Andreas Wagner for the idea.)
1665 * ConTeXt writer: Make `\starttyping`/`\stoptyping` flush with
1666 margin, preventing spurious blank lines.
1670 + Use non-minimized version of `slidy.css` with `--offline`
1671 option, so users can more easily edit it.
1672 + Also fixed a bug in the CSS that prevented proper centering
1673 of title (now reported and fixed upstream).
1677 + Replaced `s5/default/slides.js.{comment,packed}` with
1678 new compressed `s5/default/slides.min.js`.
1679 + Use `data:` protocol to embed S5 CSS in `<link>` tags,
1680 when `--offline` is specified. Using inline CSS didn't
1681 work with Chrome or Safari. This fixes offline
1682 S5 on those browsers.
1684 * HTML writer: Removed English title on footnote backlinks.
1685 This is incongrous in non-English documents.
1689 + Use CALS tables. (Some older docbook software does not work
1690 well with XHTML tables.) Closes #77.
1691 + Use `programlisting` tags (instead of `screen`) for code blocks.
1695 + Calls latex with `-halt-on-error -interaction nonstopmode` instead
1696 of `-interaction=batchmode`, which essentially just ignored errors,
1697 leading to bad results. Better to know when something is wrong.
1698 + Fixed issues with non-UTF-8 output of `pdflatex`.
1699 + Better error reporting.
1701 * `--mathjax` now takes an optional URL argument. If it is not
1702 provided, pandoc links directly to the (secure) mathjax CDN,
1703 as now recommended (thanks to dsanson).
1705 * Deprecated `--xetex` option in `pandoc`. It is no longer needed,
1706 since the LaTeX writer now produces a file that can be processed by
1707 `latex`, `pdflatex`, `lualatex`, or `xelatex`.
1709 * Introduced `--luatex` option to `markdown2pdf`. This causes `lualatex`
1710 to be used to create the PDF.
1712 * If a template specified with `--template` is not found, look for it
1713 in `datadir`. Also, if no extension is provided, supply one based
1714 on the writer. So now you can put your `special.latex` template in
1715 `~/.pandoc/templates`, and use it from any directory via
1716 `pandoc -t latex --template special`.
1718 * Default template improvements:
1720 + HTML: Display author and date after title.
1721 + HTML: Made table of contents more customizable. The container
1722 for the TOC is now in the template, so users can insert a header
1723 or other styling. (Thanks to Bruce D'Arcus for the suggestion.)
1724 + HTML, Slidy, S5: Enclose scripts in CDATA tags.
1725 + Slidy, S5: Added `s5-url` and `slidy-url` variables, instead of
1726 hard-coding. If you want to put your slidy files in the slidy
1727 subdirectory, for example, you can do
1728 `pandoc -t slidy -V slidy-url=slidy -s`.
1729 + LaTeX: Use `\and` to separate authors in LaTeX documents (reader
1730 & writer). Closes #279.
1731 + LaTeX: Use different `hyperref` options for `xetex`, fixing
1732 problems with unicode bookmarks (thanks to CircleCode).
1733 + LaTeX: Removed `ucs` package, use `utf8` rather than `utf8x`
1734 with `inputenc`. This covers fewer characters but is more
1735 robust with other packages, and `ucs` is unmaintained. Users
1736 who need better unicode support should use xelatex or lualatex.
1740 * Added `--epub-cover-image` option.
1742 * Documented `--biblatex` and `--natbib` options.
1744 * Allow `--section-divs` with slidy output. Resolves Issue #296.
1746 * Disallow notes within notes in reST and markdown.
1747 These previously caused infinite looping and stack overflows.
1754 Note references are allowed in reST notes, so this isn't a full
1755 implementation of reST. That can come later. For now we need to
1756 prevent the stack overflows. Partially resolves Issue #297.
1758 * EPUB writer: Allow non-plain math methods.
1760 * Forbid ()s in citation item keys. Resolves Issue #304: problems with
1761 `(@item1; @item2)` because the final paren was being parsed as part of
1764 * Changed URI parser so it doesn't include trailing punctuation.
1765 So, in RST, `http://google.com.` should be parsed as a link followed by a
1766 period. The parser is smart enough to recognize balanced parentheses, as
1767 often occur in wikipedia links: `http://foo.bar/baz_(bam)`.
1769 * Markdown+lhs reader: Require space after inverse bird tracks, so that
1770 HTML tags can be used freely at the left margin of a markdown+lhs document.
1771 Thanks to Conal Elliot for the suggestion.
1775 + Improved emph/strong parsing; fixes bug found by Perry Wagle.
1776 + Fixed bug in footnote order (reported by CircleCode).
1779 + Fixed bug in in field lists with multi-line items at the
1781 + Added parentheses to RST `specialChars`, so
1782 `(http://google.com)` will be parsed as a link in parens.
1783 Resolves Issue #291.
1784 + Allow `|` followed by newline in RST line block.
1788 + Gobble option & space after linebreak `\\[10pt]`.
1791 + Make it possible to have colons after links. (qerub)
1792 + Make it possible to have colons after links. (Christoffer Sawicki)
1795 + Skip spaces after `<b>`, `<emph>`, etc.
1796 + Handle tbody, thead in simple tables. Closes #274.
1797 + Implicit `Para`s instead of `Plains` in some contexts.
1799 * OpenDocument writer: Use special `First paragraph` style for
1800 first paragraph after most non-paragraph blocks. This allows users to
1801 specify e.g. that only paragraphs after the first paragraph of a block are
1802 to be indented. Thanks to Andrea Rossato for the patch. Closes #20.
1804 * LaTeX writer: use `deVerb` on table and picture captions.
1805 Otherwise LaTeX complains about `\verb` inside command argument.
1806 Thanks to bbanier for reporting the bug.
1808 * Markdown writer: Insert HTML comment btw list and indented code block.
1809 This prevents the code block from being interpreted as part of the list.
1811 * EPUB writer: Add a meta element specify the cover.
1812 Some EPUB e-readers, such as the Nook, require a meta element inside the
1813 OPF metadata block to ensure the cover image is properly displayed.
1816 * HTML writer: Use embed tag for images with non-image extensions.
1817 (e.g. PDFs). Closes #264.
1819 * LaTeX writer: Improved tables.
1821 + More space between lines, top-align cells.
1822 + Use ctable package, which allows footnotes and
1823 provides additional options.
1824 + Made cell alignments work in multiline tables.
1825 + Closes #271, #272.
1827 * Un-URI-escape image filenames in LaTeX, ConTeXt, RTF, Texinfo.
1828 Also do this when copying image files into EPUBs and ODTs.
1831 * Changed to github issue tracker.
1833 * Added failing emph/strong markdown test case due to Perry Wagle.
1835 * Slidy improvements:
1836 + Updated to use Slidy2.
1837 + Fixed bug, unclosed div tag.
1838 + Added `duration` variable in template.
1839 Setting this activates the timer.
1840 + Use 'titlepage' instead of 'cover' for title div.
1844 * `markdown2pdf`: Removed some debugging lines accidentally included
1845 in the 1.8.1 release. With those lines, the temp directory is created
1846 in the working directory, and it is not deleted. This fix restores
1847 the original behavior.
1851 * Added `--ascii` option. Currently supported only in HTML writer,
1852 which it causes to use numerical entities instead of UTF-8.
1854 * EPUB writer: `--toc` now works to provide a table of contents
1855 at the beginning of each chapter.
1857 * LaTeX writer: Change figure defaults to `htbp`.
1858 This prevents "too many unprocessed floats." Resolves
1861 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Encode filenames even when using recent
1864 * `markdown2pdf`: Fixed filename encoding issues. With help from Paulo
1865 Tanimoto. Resolves Issue #286.
1867 * HTML writer: Put line breaks in section divs.
1869 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`: Make `writerSectionDivs` default to False.
1873 * Fixed Source-repository stanza in cabal file.
1879 + Stringify alt text instead of converting to HTML.
1880 + Break lines after block elements, not inside tags.
1881 HTML output now closely resembles that of tidy. Resolves Issue #134.
1883 * Markdown reader: Fixed bug in footnote block parser (pointed out
1884 by Jesse Rosenthal). The problem arose when the blank line
1885 at the end of a footnote block contained indenting spaces.
1887 * Shared: Improved 'normalize' function so it normalizes Spaces too.
1888 In normal form, Space elements only occur to separate two non-Space
1889 elements. So, we never have [Space], or [, ..., Space].
1893 + Improved Arbitrary instance.
1894 + Added timeout for test instances.
1898 + Added section on four-space rule for lists. Resolves Issue #283.
1899 + Clarified optional arguments on math options.
1901 * markdown2pdf: Fixed bug with output file extensions.
1902 Previously `markdown2pdf test.txt -o test.en.pdf` would produce
1903 `test.pdf`, not `test.en.pdf`. Thanks to Paolo Tanimoto for the fix.
1907 * Revised Interact.hs so that it works with the CPP macros
1910 * Revised Setup.hs so that we don't call MakeManPage.hs unless
1911 the man pages are out of date.
1917 * Support for citations using Andrea Rossato's `citeproc-hs` 0.3.
1918 You can now write, for example,
1920 Water is wet [see @doe99, pp. 33-35; also @smith04, ch. 1].
1922 and, when you process your document using `pandoc`, specifying
1923 a citation style using `--csl` and a bibliography using `--bibliography`,
1924 the citation will be replaced by an appropriately formatted
1925 citation, and a list of works cited will be added to the end
1928 This means that you can switch effortlessly between different citation
1929 and bibliography styles, including footnote, numerical, and author-date
1930 formats. The bibliography can be in any of the following formats: MODS,
1931 BibTeX, BibLaTeX, RIS, EndNote, EndNote XML, ISI, MEDLINE, Copac, or JSON.
1932 See the README for further details.
1934 Citations are supported in the markdown reader, using a special
1935 syntax, and in the LaTeX reader, using natbib or biblatex syntax.
1936 (Thanks to Nathan Gass for the natbib and biblatex support.)
1938 * New `textile` reader and writer. Thanks to Paul Rivier for contributing
1939 the `textile` reader, an almost complete implementation of the textile
1940 syntax used by the ruby [RedCloth library](http://redcloth.org/textile).
1943 * New `org` writer, for Emacs Org-mode, contributed by Puneeth Chaganti.
1945 * New `json` reader and writer, for reading and writing a JSON
1946 representation of the native Pandoc AST. These are much faster
1947 than the `native` reader and writer, and should be used for
1948 serializing Pandoc to text. To convert between the JSON representation
1949 and native Pandoc, use `encodeJSON` and `decodeJSON` from
1950 `Text.JSON.Generic`.
1952 * A new `jsonFilter` function in `Text.Pandoc` makes it easy
1953 to write scripts that transform a JSON-encoded pandoc document.
1956 -- removelinks.hs - removes links from document
1958 main = interact $ jsonFilter $ bottomUp removeLink
1959 where removeLink (Link xs _) = Emph xs
1962 To use this to remove links while translating markdown to LaTeX:
1964 pandoc -t json | runghc removelinks.hs | pandoc -f json -t latex
1966 * Attributes are now allowed in inline `Code` elements, for example:
1968 In this code, `ulist ! [theclass "special"] << elts`{.haskell} is...
1970 The attribute syntax is the same as for delimited code blocks.
1971 `Code` inline has an extra argument place for attributes, just like
1972 `CodeBlock`. Inline code will be highlighted in HTML output, if pandoc
1973 is compiled with highlighting support. Resolves Issue #119.
1975 * New `RawBlock` and `RawInline` elements (replacing `RawHtml`,
1976 `HtmlInline`, and `TeX`) provide lots of flexibility in writing
1977 scripts to transform Pandoc documents. Scripts can now change
1978 how each element is rendered in each output format.
1980 * You can now define LaTeX macros in markdown documents, and pandoc
1981 will apply them to TeX math. For example,
1983 \newcommand{\plus}[2]{#1 + #2}
1986 yields `3+4`. Since the macros are applied in the reader, they
1987 will work in every output format, not just LaTeX.
1989 * LaTeX macros can also be used in LaTeX documents (both in math
1990 and in non-math contexts).
1992 * A new `--mathjax` option has been added for displaying
1993 math in HTML using MathJax. Resolves issue #259.
1995 * Footnotes are now supported in the RST reader. (Note, however,
1996 that unlike docutils, pandoc ignores the numeral or symbol used in
1997 the note; footnotes are put in an auto-numbered ordered list.)
1998 Resolves Issue #258.
2000 * A new `--normalize` option causes pandoc to normalize the AST
2001 before writing the document. This means that, for example,
2002 `*hi**there*` will be rendered as `<em>hithere</em>`
2003 instead of `<em>hi</em><em>there</em>`. This is not the default,
2004 because there is a significant performance penalty.
2006 * A new `--chapters` command-line option causes headers
2007 in DocBook, LaTeX, and ConTeXt to start with "chapter" (level one).
2008 Resolves Issue #265.
2010 * In DocBook output, `<chapter>` is now used for top-level
2011 headers if the template contains `<book>`. Resolves Issue #265.
2013 * A new `--listings` option in `pandoc` and `markdown2pdf` causes
2014 the LaTeX writer to use the listings package for code blocks.
2015 (Thanks to Josef Svennigsson for the pandoc patch, and Etienne
2016 Millon for the markdown2pdf patch.)
2018 * `markdown2pdf` now supports `--data-dir`.
2020 * URLs in autolinks now have class "url" so they can be styled.
2022 * Improved prettyprinting in most formats. Lines will be wrapped
2023 more evenly and duplicate blank lines avoided.
2025 * New `--columns` command-line option sets the column width for
2026 line wrapping and relative width calculations for tables.
2028 * Made `--smart` work in HTML, RST, and Textile readers, as well
2031 * Added `--html5` option for HTML5 output.
2033 * Added support for listings package in LaTeX reader
2036 * Added support for simple tables in the LaTeX reader.
2038 * Added support for simple tables in the HTML reader.
2040 * Significant performance improvements in many readers and writers.
2042 [API and program changes]
2044 * Moved `Text.Pandoc.Definition` from the `pandoc` package to a new
2045 auxiliary package, `pandoc-types`. This will make it possible for other
2046 programs to supply output in Pandoc format, without depending on the whole
2049 * Added `Attr` field to `Code`.
2051 * Removed `RawHtml`, `HtmlInline`, and `TeX` elements; added generic
2052 `RawBlock` and `RawInline`.
2054 * Moved generic functions to `Text.Pandoc.Generic`. Deprecated
2055 `processWith`, replacing it with two functions, `bottomUp` and `topDown`.
2056 Removed previously deprecated functions `processPandoc` and `queryPandoc`.
2058 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Builder`, for building `Pandoc` structures.
2060 * `Text.Pandoc` now exports association lists `readers` and `writers`.
2062 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Native`, which exports `readNative`.
2063 `readNative` can now read full pandoc documents, block lists, blocks,
2064 inline lists, or inlines. It will interpret `Str "hi"`
2065 as if it were `Pandoc (Meta [] [] []) [Plain [Str "hi"]]`.
2066 This should make testing easier.
2068 * Removed deprecated `-C/--custom-header` option.
2069 Use `--template` instead.
2071 * `--biblio-file` has been replaced by `--bibliography`.
2072 `--biblio-format` has been removed; pandoc now guesses the format
2073 from the file extension (see README).
2075 * pandoc will treat an argument as a URI only if it has an
2076 `http(s)` scheme. Previously pandoc would treat some
2077 Windows pathnames beginning with `C:/` as URIs.
2079 * The `--sanitize-html` option and the `stateSanitize` field in
2080 `ParserState` have been removed. Sanitization is better done in the
2081 resulting HTML using `xss-sanitize`, which is based on pandoc's
2082 sanitization, but improved.
2084 * pandoc now adds a newline to the end of its output in fragment
2085 mode (= not `--standalone`).
2087 * Added support for `lang` in `html` tag in the HTML template,
2088 so you can do `pandoc -s -V lang=es`, for example.
2090 * `highlightHtml` in `Text.Pandoc.Highlighting` now takes
2091 a boolean argument that selects between "inline" and
2094 * `Text.Pandoc.Writers.RTF` now exports `rtfEmbedImage`.
2095 Images are embedded in RTF output when possible (png, jpeg).
2096 Resolves Issue #275.
2098 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`. This is better suited for pandoc than the
2099 `pretty` package. Changed all writers that used
2100 `Text.PrettyPrint.HughesPJ` to use `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` instead.
2102 * Rewrote `writeNative` using the new prettyprinting module. It is
2103 now much faster. The output has been made more consistent and compressed.
2104 `writeNative` is also now sensitive to writerStandalone`, and will simply
2105 `print a block list if writerStandalone` is False.
2107 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.Blocks`. `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` allows you to define
2108 blocks and concatenate them, so a separate module is no longer needed.
2110 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
2112 + Added `writerColumns`, `writerChapters`, and `writerHtml5` to
2114 + Added `normalize`.
2115 + Removed unneeded prettyprinting functions:
2116 `wrapped`, `wrapIfNeeded`, `wrappedTeX`, `wrapTeXIfNeeded`, `hang'`,
2117 `BlockWrapper`, `wrappedBlocksToDoc`.
2118 + Made `splitBy` take a test instead of an element.
2119 + Added `findDataFile`, refactored `readDataFile`.
2120 + Added `stringify`. Rewrote `inlineListToIdentifier` using `stringify`.
2121 + Fixed `inlineListToIdentifier` to treat '\160' as ' '.
2123 * `Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML`:
2125 + Removed `rawHtmlBlock`, `anyHtmlBlockTag`, `anyHtmlInlineTag`,
2126 `anyHtmlTag`, `anyHtmlEndTag`, `htmlEndTag`, `extractTagType`,
2127 `htmlBlockElement`, `htmlComment`
2128 + Added `htmlTag`, `htmlInBalanced`, `isInlineTag`, `isBlockTag`,
2131 * Moved `smartPunctuation` from `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown`
2132 to `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Parsing`, and parameterized it with
2135 * Added `nonspaceChar` to `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
2137 * Ellipses are no longer allowed to contain spaces.
2138 Previously we allowed '. . .', ' . . . ', etc. This caused
2139 too many complications, and removed author's flexibility in
2140 combining ellipses with spaces and periods.
2142 * Allow linebreaks in URLs (treat as spaces). Also, a string of
2143 consecutive spaces or tabs is now parsed as a single space. If you have
2144 multiple spaces in your URL, use `%20%20`.
2146 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
2148 + Removed `refsMatch`.
2149 + Hid `Key` constructor.
2150 + Removed custom `Ord` and `Eq` instances for `Key`.
2151 + Added `toKey` and `fromKey` to convert between `Key` and `[Inline]`.
2152 + Generalized type on `readWith`.
2154 * Small change in calculation of relative widths of table columns.
2155 If the size of the header > the specified column width, use
2156 the header size as 100% for purposes of calculating
2157 relative widths of columns.
2159 * Markdown writer now uses some pandoc-specific features when `--strict`
2160 is not specified: `\` newline is used for a hard linebreak instead of
2161 two spaces then a newline. And delimited code blocks are used when
2162 there are attributes.
2164 * HTML writer: improved gladTeX output by setting ENV appropriately
2165 for display or inline math (Jonathan Daugherty).
2167 * LaTeX writer: Use `\paragraph`, `\subparagraph` for level 4,5 headers.
2171 + `\label{foo}` and `\ref{foo}` now become `{foo}` instead of `(foo)`.
2172 + `\index{}` commands are skipped.
2174 * Added `fontsize` variable to default LaTeX template.
2175 This makes it easy to set the font size using `markdown2pdf`:
2176 `markdown2pdf -V fontsize=12pt input.txt`.
2178 * Fixed problem with strikeout in LaTeX headers when using
2179 hyperref, by adding a command to the default LaTeX template
2180 that disables `\sout` inside pdf strings. Thanks to Joost Kremers
2183 * The `COLUMNS` environment variable no longer has any effect.
2185 [under-the-hood improvements]
2187 * Pandoc now compiles with GHC 7. (This alone leads to a
2188 significant performance improvement, 15-20%.)
2190 * Completely rewrote HTML reader using tagsoup as a lexer. The
2191 new reader is faster and more accurate. Unlike the
2192 old reader, it does not get bogged down on some input
2193 (Issues #277, 255). And it handles namespaces in tags
2196 * Replaced `escapeStringAsXML` with a faster version.
2198 * Rewrote `spaceChar` and some other parsers in Text.Pandoc.Parsing
2199 for a significant performance boost.
2201 * Improved performance of all readers by rewriting parsers.
2203 * Simplified Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences by using
2204 entity lookup functions from TagSoup.
2206 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` now uses the unicode-aware IO functions
2207 from `System.IO` if base >= 4.2. This gives support for
2208 windows line endings on windows.
2210 * Remove duplications in documentation by generating the
2211 pandoc man page from README, using `MakeManPage.hs`.
2213 * README now includes a full description of markdown syntax,
2214 including non-pandoc-specific parts. A new `pandoc_markdown`
2215 man page is extracted from this, so you can look up markdown
2216 syntax by doing `man pandoc_markdown`.
2218 * Completely revised test framework (with help from Nathan Gass).
2219 The new test framework is built when the `tests` Cabal flag is set. It
2220 includes the old integration tests, but also some new unit and quickcheck
2221 tests. Test output has been much improved, and you can now specify a glob
2222 pattern after `cabal test` to indicate which tests should be run;
2223 for example `cabal test citations` will run all the citation tests.
2225 * Added a shell script, `stripansi.sh`, for filtering ANSI control
2226 sequences from test output: `cabal test | ./stripansi.sh > test.log`.
2228 * Added `Interact.hs` to make it easier to use ghci while developing.
2229 `Interact.hs` loads `ghci` from the `src` directory, specifying
2230 all the options needed to load pandoc modules (including
2231 specific package dependencies, which it gets by parsing
2234 * Added `Benchmark.hs`, testing all readers + writers using criterion.
2236 * Added `stats.sh`, to make it easier to collect and archive
2237 benchmark and lines-of-code stats.
2239 * Added upper bounds to all cabal dependencies.
2241 * Include man pages in extra-source-files. This allows users to
2242 install pandoc from the tarball without needing to build the man
2247 * Filenames are encoded as UTF8. Resolves Issue #252.
2249 * Handle curly quotes better in `--smart` mode. Previously, curly quotes
2250 were just parsed literally, leading to problems in some output formats.
2251 Now they are parsed as `Quoted` inlines, if `--smart` is specified.
2252 Resolves Issue #270.
2254 * Text.Pandoc.Parsing: Fixed bug in grid table parser.
2255 Spaces at end of line were not being stripped properly,
2256 resulting in unintended LineBreaks.
2260 + Allow HTML comments as inline elements in markdown.
2261 So, `aaa <!-- comment --> bbb` can be a single paragraph.
2262 + Fixed superscripts with links: `^[link](/foo)^` gets
2263 recognized as a superscripted link, not an inline note followed by
2265 + Fixed regression, making markdown reference keys case-insensitive again.
2266 Resolves Issue #272.
2267 + Properly handle abbreviations (like `Mr.`) at the end of a line.
2268 + Better handling of intraword underscores, avoiding exponential
2269 slowdowns in some cases. Resolves Issue #182.
2270 + Fixed bug in alignments in tables with blank rows in the header.
2274 + Field lists now allow spaces in field names, and
2275 block content in field values. (Thanks to Lachlan Musicman
2276 for pointing out the bug.)
2277 + Definition list items are now always `Para` instead of
2278 `Plain`, matching behavior of `rst2xml.py`.
2279 + In image blocks, the description is parsed properly and
2280 used for the alt attribute, not also the title.
2281 + Skip blank lines at beginning of file. Resolves
2286 + Improved parsing of preamble.
2287 Previously you'd get unexpected behavior on a document that
2288 contained `\begin{document}` in, say, a verbatim block.
2289 + Allow spaces between `\begin` or `\end` and `{`.
2290 + Support `\L` and `\l`.
2291 + Skip comments inside paragraphs.
2295 + Escape strings in `\href{..}`.
2296 + In nonsimple tables, put cells in `\parbox`.
2298 * OpenDocument writer: don't print raw TeX.
2302 + Fixed bug in `Image`. URI was getting unescaped twice!
2303 + Avoid printing extra blank lines at the end if there are
2304 no notes or references.
2306 * LaTeX and ConTeXt: Escape `[` and `]` as `{[}` and `{]}`.
2307 This avoids unwanted interpretation as an optional argument.
2309 * ConTeXt writer: Fixed problem with inline code. Previously
2310 `}` would be rendered `\type{}}`. Now we check the string for '}' and '{'.
2311 If it contains neither, use `\type{}`; otherwise use `\mono{}`
2312 with an escaped version of the string.
2314 * `:` now allowed in HTML tags. Resolves Issue #274.
2320 * New EPUB and HTML Slidy writers. (Issue #122)
2322 - EPUB is a standard ebook format, used in Apple's iBooks for
2323 the iPad and iPhone, Barnes and Noble's nook reader, the Sony
2324 reader, and many other devices.
2325 - Slidy, like S5, is a system for producing HTML+javascript slide
2328 * All input is assumed to be UTF-8, no matter what the locale and ghc
2329 version, and all output is UTF-8. This reverts to pre-1.5 behavior.
2330 Also, a BOM, if present, is stripped from the input.
2332 * Markdown now supports grid tables, whose cells can contain
2333 arbitrary block elements. (Issue #43)
2335 * Sequentially numbered example lists in markdown with `@` marker.
2337 * Markdown table captions can begin with a bare colon and no longer need
2338 to include the English word "table." Also, a caption can now occur
2339 either before or after the table. (Issue #227)
2341 * New command-line options:
2343 - `--epub-stylesheet` allows you to specify a CSS file that will
2344 be used to style your ebook.
2345 - `--epub-metadata` allows you to specify metadata for the ebook.
2346 - `--offline` causes the generated HTML slideshow to include all
2347 needed scripts and stylesheets.
2348 - `--webtex` causes TeX math to be converted to images using the
2349 Google Charts API (unless a different URL is specified).
2350 - `--section-divs` causes div tags to be added around each section
2351 in an HTML document. (Issue #230, 239)
2353 * Default behavior of S5 writer in standalone mode has changed:
2354 previously, it would include all needed scripts and stylesheets
2355 in the generated HTML; now, only links are included unless
2356 the `--offline` option is used.
2358 * Default behavior of HTML writer has changed. Between 1.2 and 1.5,
2359 pandoc would enclose sections in div tags with identifiers on the
2360 div tags, so that the sections can be manipulated in javascript.
2361 This caused undesirable interactions with raw HTML div tags. So,
2362 starting with 1.6, the default is to put the identifiers directly
2363 on the header tags, and not to include the divs. The `--section-divs`
2364 option selects the 1.2-1.5 behavior.
2368 - `HTMLMathMethod`: Added `WebTeX`, removed `MimeTeX`.
2369 - `WriterOptions`: Added `writerUserDataDir`, `writerSourceDirectory`,
2370 `writerEPUBMetadata` fields. Removed `writerIncludeBefore`,
2371 `writerIncludeAfter`.
2372 - Added `headerShift` to `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
2373 - Moved parsing code and `ParserState` from `Text.Pandoc.Shared`
2374 to a new module, `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
2375 - Added `stateHasChapters` to `ParserState`.
2376 - Added `HTMLSlideVariant`.
2377 - Made `KeyTable` a map instead of an association list.
2378 - Added accessors for `Meta` fields (`docTitle`, `docAuthors`,
2380 - `Pandoc`, `Meta`, `Inline`, and `Block` have been given `Ord`
2382 - Reference keys now have a type of their own (`Key`), with its
2383 own `Ord` instance for case-insensitive comparison.
2384 - Added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.EPUB`.
2385 - Added `Text.Pandoc.UUID`.
2386 - Removed `Text.Pandoc.ODT`, added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.ODT`.
2387 Removed `saveOpenDocumentAsODT`, added `writeODT`.
2388 - Added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.Native` and `writeNative`.
2389 Removed `prettyPandoc`.
2390 - Added `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` for portable UTF8 string IO.
2391 - Removed `Text.Pandoc.Writers.S5` and the `writeS5` function.
2392 Moved `s5Includes` to a new module, `Text.Pandoc.S5`.
2393 To write S5, you now use `writeHtml` with `writerSlideVariant`
2394 set to `S5Slides` or `SlidySlides`.
2396 * Template changes. If you use custom templates, please update them,
2397 particularly if you use syntax highlighting with pandoc. The old HTML
2398 templates hardcoded highlighting CSS that will no longer work with
2399 the most recent version of highlighting-kate.
2401 - HTML template: avoid empty meta tag if no date.
2402 - HTML template: Use default highlighting CSS from highlighting-kate
2403 instead of hard-coding the CSS into the template.
2404 - HTML template: insert-before text goes before the title, and
2405 immediately after the <body> tag, as documented. (Issue #241)
2406 - Added slidy and s5 templates.
2407 - Added amssymb to preamble of latex template. (github Issue 1)
2409 * Removed excess newlines at the end of output. Note: because output
2410 will not contain an extra newline, you may need to make adjustments
2411 if you are inserting pandoc's output into a template.
2413 * In S5 and slidy, horizontal rules now cause a new slide, so you
2414 are no longer limited to one slide per section.
2416 * Improved handling of code in man writer. Inline code is now monospace,
2417 not bold, and code blocks now use .nf (no fill) and .IP (indented para).
2419 * HTML reader parses `<tt>` as Code. (Issue #247)
2421 * html+lhs output now contains bird tracks, even when compiled without
2422 highlighting support. (Issue #242)
2424 * Colons are now no longer allowed in autogenerated XML/HTML identifiers,
2425 since they have a special meaning in XML.
2427 * Code improvements in ODT writer. Remote images are now replaced with
2428 their alt text rather than a broken link.
2430 * LaTeX reader improvements:
2432 - Made latex `\section`, `\chapter` parsers more forgiving of
2434 - Parse `\chapter{}` in latex.
2435 - Changed `rawLaTeXInline` to accept `\section`, `\begin`, etc.
2436 - Use new `rawLaTeXInline'` in LaTeX reader, and export `rawLaTeXInline`
2437 for use in markdown reader.
2438 - Fixes bug wherein `\section{foo}` was not recognized as raw TeX
2439 in markdown document.
2441 * LaTeX writer: images are automatically shrunk if they would extend
2442 beyond the page margin.
2444 * Plain, markdown, RST writers now use unicode for smart punctuation.
2446 * Man writer converts math to unicode when possible, as in other writers.
2448 * `markdown2pdf` can now recognize citeproc options.
2450 * Command-line arguments are converted to UTF-8. (Issue #234)
2452 * `Text.Pandoc.TeXMath` has been rewritten to use texmath's parser.
2453 This allows it to handle a wider range of formulas. Also, if a formula
2454 cannot be converted, it is left in raw TeX; formulas are no longer
2455 partially converted.
2457 * Unicode curly quotes are left alone when parsing smart quotes. (Issue
2460 * Cabal file changes:
2462 - Removed parsec < 3 restriction.
2463 - Added 'threaded' flag for architectures where GHC lacks a threaded
2465 - Use 'threaded' only for markdown2pdf; it is not needed for pandoc.
2466 - Require highlighting-kate 0.2.7.
2468 * Use explicit imports from `Data.Generics`. Otherwise we have a
2469 conflict with the 'empty' symbol, introduced in syb >= 0.2. (Issue #237)
2471 * New data files: slidy/slidy.min.js, slidy/slidy.min.css, epub.css.
2477 * Fixed uniqueIdent in Shared so that header identifiers work as
2478 advertized in the README and are are valid XHTML names.
2484 * Fixed treatment of unicode characters in URIs.
2485 + Shared now exports escapeURI and unescapeURI. These handle
2486 UTF8 encoding and decoding as well as URI escaping/unescaping.
2487 + Shared: uri and emailAddress now return a pair of the original
2488 parsed text and the escaped URI (in the latter case, with
2489 the mailto: prefix).
2490 + HTML reader: unsanitaryURI has been modified to allow unicode
2491 high characters in a URI.
2492 + Readers: All link and image URIs are now escaped using
2494 + Markdown and RST writers: unescapeURI is used so that URIs
2495 in these formats are human-readable.
2497 * Setup.hs: Don't assume that the build directory is "dist".
2498 Instead, get it from localBuildInfo.
2500 * OpenDocument writer: Use a Map for stTextStyleAttr.
2501 This avoids duplicates (and invalid xml). Resolves Issue #222.
2507 * HTML writer: Fixed error in math writer (with MathML option)
2508 that caused an infinite loop for unparsable MathML.
2514 * Added --mathml option. When this is selected, pandoc will convert
2515 TeX math into MathML.
2516 + Added data/MathMLinHTML.js, which is included when no URL is
2517 provided for --mathml. This allows MathML to be displayed (in
2518 better browsers) as text/html.
2519 + Removed Text.Pandoc.LaTeXMathML. The module was no longer
2520 necessary; it was replaced by two lines in pandoc.hs.
2521 + Replaced LaTeXMathML.js.commend and LaTeXMathML.js.packed with a
2522 single combined file, LaTeXMathML.js.
2524 * Added --data-dir option.
2525 This specifies a user data directory. If not specified, will default
2526 to ~/.pandoc on unix or Application Data\pandoc on Windows.
2527 Files placed in the user data directory will override system default
2530 * Added Maybe datadir parameter to readDataFile, saveOpenDocumentAsODT,
2531 latexMathMLScript, s5HeaderIncludes, and getDefaultTemplate. If
2532 Nothing, no user directory is searched for an override.
2534 * Added 'plain' output format. This is similar to markdown, but
2535 removes links, pictures, inline formatting, and most anything that
2536 looks even vaguely markupish. The function writePlain is exported by
2537 Text.Pandoc.Writers.Markdown, with which it shares most of its code.
2539 * Allow multi-line titles and authors in meta block.
2540 Titles may span multiple lines, provided continuation lines
2541 begin with a space character. Separate authors may be put on
2542 multiple lines, provided each line after the first begins with
2543 a space character. Each author must fit on one line. Multiple
2544 authors on a single line may still be separated by a semicolon.
2545 Based on a patch by Justin Bogner.
2547 * When given an absolute URI as parameter, pandoc will try to fetch
2548 the content via HTTP. So you can do:
2549 'pandoc -r html -w markdown http://www.fsf.org'
2550 Adds dependency on HTTP.
2552 * Made HTML reader much more forgiving.
2553 + Incorporated idea (from HXT) that an element can be closed
2554 by an open tag for another element.
2555 + Javascript is partially parsed to make sure that a <script>
2556 section is not closed by a </script> in a comment or string.
2557 + More lenient non-quoted attribute values.
2558 Now we accept anything but a space character, quote, or <>.
2559 This helps in parsing e.g. www.google.com!
2560 + Bare & signs are now parsed as a string. This is a common
2562 + Skip a bare < in malformed HTML.
2564 * Removed html2markdown and hsmarkdown.
2565 + html2markdown is no longer needed, since you can now pass URI
2566 arguments to pandoc and directly convert web pages. (Note,
2567 however, that pandoc assumes the pages are UTF8. html2markdown
2568 made an attempt to guess the encoding and convert them.)
2569 + hsmarkdown is pointless -- a large executable that could be
2570 replaced by 'pandoc --strict'.
2572 * In most writers, an image in a paragraph by itself is now rendered
2573 as a figure, with the alt text as the caption. (Texinfo, HTML, RST,
2574 MediaWiki, Docbook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, HTML.) Other images are
2577 * Depend on extensible-exceptions. This allows pandoc to be compiled
2580 * Added --base-header-level option. For example, --base-header-level=2
2581 will change level 1 headers to level 2, level 2 to level 3, etc.
2582 Closes Debian #563416.
2584 * Incomplete support for RST tables (simple and grid).
2585 Thanks to Eric Kow. Colspans and rowspans not yet supported.
2587 * Added accessors (docTitle, docAuthors, docDate) to Meta type.
2589 * MediaWiki writer: format links with relative URLs as wikilinks.
2590 The new rule: If the link target is an absolute URL, an external
2591 link is created. Otherwise, a wikilink is created.
2593 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Export uniqueIdent, and don't allow tilde in
2594 identifier. Note: This may break links to sections that involve
2597 * Markdown(+lhs) reader: handle "inverse bird tracks."
2598 Inverse bird tracks (<) are used for haskell example code that is not
2599 part of the literate Haskell program. Resolves Issue #211.
2602 + Recognize '\ ' (interword space).
2603 + Recognize nonbreaking space '~'.
2604 + Ignore \section, \pdfannot, \pdfstringdef. Ignore alt title in
2605 section headers. Don't treat \section as inline LaTeX.
2606 Resolves Issue #202.
2607 + LaTeX reader: allow any special character to be escaped.
2608 Resolves Issue #221.
2609 + LaTeX reader: treat \paragraph and \subparagraph as level 4, 5
2610 headers. Resolves Issue #207.
2612 * Use template variables for include-before/after.
2613 + These options now imply -s; previously they worked also in fragment
2615 + Users can now adjust position of include-before and include-after
2616 text in the templates.
2617 + Default position of include-before moved back (as it was before 1.4)
2618 before table of contents.
2619 + Resolves Issue #217.
2621 * Don't print an empty table header: (all writers).
2622 Resolves Issue #210.
2624 * HTML, Docbook writer: Use tbody, thead, and cols in tables.
2626 * HTML writer: Don't include TOC div if table of contents is empty.
2628 * Markdown writer: Fixed citations.
2629 Previously the markdown writer printed raw citation codes, e.g.
2630 [geach1970], rather than the expanded citations provided by
2631 citeproc, e.g. (Geach 1970). Now it prints the expanded citations.
2632 This means that the document produced can be processed as a markdown
2633 document without citeproc. Thanks to dsanson for reporting, and
2634 Andrea Rossato for the patch.
2636 * Improved and simplified title block in context template.
2637 Previously it caused an error if there was no title.
2638 This method should also be easier for users to customize.
2641 + Treat p., pp., sec., ch., as abbreviations in smart mode.
2642 + Disallow blank lines in inline code span.
2643 + Allow footnotes to be indented < 4 spaces.
2644 This fixes a regression. A test case has been added.
2645 + Escape spaces in URLs as %20. Previously they were incorrectly
2646 escaped as +, which is appropriate only for the query part of
2647 a URL. Resolves Issue #220.
2648 + Require two spaces after capital letter + period for list item.
2649 Otherwise "E. coli" starts a list. This might change the semantics
2650 of some existing documents, since previously the two-space
2651 requirement was only enforced when the second word started
2652 with a capital letter. But it is consistent with the existing
2653 documentation and follows the principle of least surprise.
2654 Resolves Issue #212.
2656 * LaTeX template: redefine labelwidth when using enumerate package.
2657 Otherwise the list labels (numbers) often extend past the left
2658 margin, which looks bad.
2660 * Mediawiki writer: Don't print a "== Notes ==" header before
2661 references. This is too English-centric. Writers can provide their
2662 own header at the end of the document.
2664 * Promoted mediawiki headers. '= head =' is now level 1, '== head =='
2665 level 2, etc. This seems to be correct; it's only by convention
2666 that wikipedia articles have level 2 headers at most.
2667 Patch due to Eric Kow.
2669 * RunTests.hs: Set LANG to a UTF-8 locale. Use 'pandoc --data-dir=' so
2670 data files don't need to have been installed. This removes the need to
2674 + Handle spaces before <html>. Resolves Issue #216.
2675 + Be forgiving in parsing a bare list within a list.
2676 The following is not valid xhtml, but the intent is clear:
2679 <ol><li>sub</li></ol>
2682 We'll treat the <ol> as if it's in a <li>. Resolves Issue #215.
2684 * Updated INSTALL instructions. cabal method is now promoted.
2686 * Updated markdown2pdf man page. It no longer says all pandoc options
2689 * README/man pages: Removed advice to pipe through tidy before HTML
2690 reader. This is obsolete, now that we have a forgiving HTML parser.
2692 * LaTeX writer: set numbersections template variable, so
2693 the section numbering options work again.
2695 * Removed obsolete Makefile.
2697 * Website: renamed index.txt.in -> index.txt.
2699 * New batch file to make-windows-installer.
2700 + Removed old Makefile.windows
2701 + Added make-windows-installer.bat
2702 + Modified default installer name in pandoc-setup.iss
2704 * Removed freebsd and macports directories.
2705 They are no longer up to date.
2708 + Made man page building sensitive to build verbosity.
2709 + Improved detection of highlighting support in test hook.
2710 + Install wrapper scripts into cabal bin directory.
2711 + Also simplified installManpages.
2712 + Setup.hs: install manpages to mandir. Code borrowed from darcs.
2714 * Changed default of writerXeTeX to False.
2716 * HTML writer: don't include empty UL if --toc but no sections.
2717 Resolves Issue #199.
2721 + If book, report, or memoir documentclass, use \chapter{}
2722 for first-level headers. Otherwise use \section{}.
2723 + Removed stLink, link template variable. Reason: we now always
2724 include hyperref in the template.
2728 + Only show \author if there are some.
2729 + Always include hyperref package. It is used not just for links but
2730 for toc, section heading bookmarks, footnotes, etc. Also added
2731 unicode=true on hyperref options.
2733 * markdown2pdf: always do at least two runs. hyperref bookmarks
2736 * cabal file: Removed unneeded dependency on template-haskell.
2738 * Windows installer - fixed bug in data file locations.
2739 Resolves Issue #197.
2741 * Deprecated --custom-header in documentation.
2742 Removed old "Custom Headers" section in README.
2748 * Pandoc will now compile with either GHC 6.10 or 6.12.
2749 + Don't use System.IO.UTF8 when compiling with 6.12
2750 + Use -fno-warn-unused-do-bind option when compiling with 6.12
2752 * Replaced old headers with templates. Now users have much more
2753 control over the way documents appear in --standalone mode,
2754 and writer code is simplified. Resolves Issues #59, 147.
2755 Every effort has been made to retain backwards compatibilty.
2756 So, the --custom-header option should still work as before.
2758 + Added Text.Pandoc.Templates. This provides functions for
2759 retrieving default templates and for rendering templates.
2760 + System templates (in the pandoc data directory) can be
2761 overridden by user templates in $HOME/.pandoc/templates.
2762 + Removed Text.Pandoc.DefaultHeaders.
2763 + Removed data/headers directory.
2764 + Added templates directory.
2765 + Added writerTemplate and writerVariables fields to WriterOptions.
2766 + Removed writerTitlePrefix, writerHeader fields from WriterOptions.
2767 + Changed --print-default-header to --print-default-template.
2768 + Added --template option.
2769 + Added -V/--variable option to set custom template variables.
2771 * Pandoc no longer requires Template Haskell. Resolves Issue #186.
2773 + Removed need for TH in ODT module. Instead get reference.odt from
2774 data file at run time.
2775 + Removed TH dependency from S5 module. S5 module now exports
2776 s5HeaderIncludes, which pandoc.hs includes if writer is s5 and
2778 + Refactored LaTeXMathML not to use TH.
2780 * Meta is now Meta [Inline] [[Inline]] [Inline] rather than
2781 Meta [Inline] [String] String. Authors and date in Meta are now lists
2782 of Inline elements rather than raw strings. This means that they can
2783 be formatted and can include footnotes. NOTE: This may be a breaking
2784 change for those using pandoc as a library.
2786 * Added readDataFile to Text.Pandoc.Shared. This retrieves
2787 a data file from the user pandoc data directory (~/.pandoc
2788 on unix), or, if not found there, from the system data
2789 directory ($CABALDIR/shared/pandoc-VERSION/). All data
2790 files, including templates, LaTeXMathML.js, s5 styles,
2791 and reference.odt, can be overridden by the user.
2793 * s5 files moved from data/ui/default to s5/default.
2795 * Use unicode instead of entities in HTML and XML output. Resolves
2798 * Prettier HTML footnote references: put anchor inside sup,
2799 instead of other way. Resolves Issue #191. Thanks to
2802 * Added --xetex option to pandoc and markdown2pdf.
2803 If --xetex is specified, pandoc produces latex suitable for
2804 processing by xelatex, and markdown2pdf uses xelatex to create
2805 the PDF. Resolves Issue #185.
2807 * RTF writer: multiple authors now occupy multiple paragraphs rather
2808 than using a line break.
2810 * Man writer: now the "--after-body" will come after the "AUTHORS"
2811 section, whereas before it would come before it. This is a
2812 slight break from backwards compatibility.
2814 * Added --reference-odt option, so users may customize the styles
2815 used in pandoc-generated ODT files. Users may also place a
2816 default reference.odt in the ~\.pandoc directory.
2819 + Indented and line-broke styles.xml so it can be modified more easily.
2820 + Omitted some unnecessary style declarations.
2821 + Don't wrap text in OpenDocument writer. The tags are too long, making
2822 wrapping ugly and pointless.
2824 * LaTeX reader: use \\ to separate multiple authors.
2826 * Markdown reader: use ; as separator between authors.
2827 This allows you to use ',' within author names: e.g. "John Jones, Jr."
2829 * S5 writer: use linebreak to separate authors in title page.
2831 * RST reader: Allow :: before lhs code block. The RST spec requires the
2832 :: before verbatim blocks. This :: should not be treated as literal
2833 colons. Resolves Issue #189.
2835 * Documented pandoc 1.3's new definition list syntax in README.
2836 (An oversight in the last release.)
2839 + interpret ! in a log as an error line.
2840 + --toc now works properly.
2842 * Changes in RunTests.hs:
2843 + Use the Diff library rather than a local copy of Diff.hs.
2844 (This vastly increases performance.) This change means that 'cabal
2845 test' presupposes that the Diff library is installed.
2846 + Removed tests/Diff.hs from cabal file.
2847 + Changed RunTests to use local environment. We need at least HOME, so
2848 pandoc can find its data directory.
2850 * Updated windows installer to install data files in the app directory.
2852 * Windows installer now installs portable wrappers hsmarkdown and
2859 * Added --id-prefix option (Issue #41). This adds a prefix to all
2860 automatically generated HTML identifiers, which helps prevent
2861 duplicate identifiers when you're generating a fragment (say a blog
2864 * Added --indented-code-classes option. This specifies classes
2865 to use for indented code blocks. (Patch due to buttock; Issue #87.)
2867 * --number-sections now affects HTML output as well as ConTeXt and LaTeX
2870 * Improved syntax for markdown definition lists (Issue #24).
2871 Definition lists are now more compatible with PHP Markdown Extra.
2872 + You can have multiple definitions for a term (but still not
2874 + Multi-block definitions no longer need a column before each block
2875 (indeed, this will now cause multiple definitions).
2876 + The marker no longer needs to be flush with the left margin,
2877 but can be indented at or two spaces. Also, ~ as well as :
2878 can be used as the marker (this suggestion due to David
2880 + There can now be a blank line between the term and the
2883 * Better looking simple tables. Resolves Issue #180.
2884 + Markdown reader: simple tables are now given column widths of 0.
2885 + Column width of 0 is interpreted as meaning: use default column width.
2886 + Writers now include explicit column width information only
2887 for multiline tables. (Exception: RTF writer, which requires
2888 column widths. In this case, columns are given equal widths,
2889 adding up to the text width.)
2890 + Simple tables should now look better in most output formats.
2892 * Allow markdown tables without headers (Issue #50).
2893 The new syntax is described in README. Also allow optional line of
2894 dashes at bottom of simple tables.
2896 * Compensate for width of final table column (Issue #144).
2898 * Treat a backslash followed by a newline as a hard line break
2899 in markdown. Resolves Issue #154. This is a nice alternative
2900 to markdown's "invisible" way of indicating hardline breaks
2901 using lines that end with two spaces.
2903 * Improved performance of markdown reader by ~10% by eliminating the
2904 need for a separate parsing pass for notes. Raw notes are now stored
2905 on the first pass (which parses references), then parsed when the
2906 note is inserted into the AST. The stateNotes field in ParserState
2907 is now a list of [(String, String)] pairs instead of [(String,
2910 * In markdown reader, treat 4 or more * or _ in a row as literal
2911 text. (Trying to parse long strings of * or _ as strong or emph
2912 leads to exponential performance problems.)
2914 * Markdown reader: Use + rather than %20 for spaces in URLs.
2916 * Fixed htmlComment parser, adding a needed 'try'.
2918 * Don't print raw HTML in man output.
2920 * Allow . _ and ~ in header identifiers.
2922 * Specially mark code blocks that were "literate" in the input.
2923 They can then be treated differently in the writers. This allows
2924 authors to distinguish bits of the literate program they are writing
2925 from source code examples, even if the examples are marked as
2926 Haskell for highlighting. (Issue #174.)
2928 * Modified html+lhs output to use "haskell" highlighter instead
2929 of "literateHaskell". The highlighting module now adds bird tracks
2930 after highlighting (for HTML output), if the code block has the
2931 "literate" class. This gives better results, because kate's
2932 haskell highlighter is much better than the literateHaskell
2935 * Fixed handling of footnotes in titles (HTML) and headers (LaTeX).
2938 * Support for "..code-block" directive in RST reader. Not core
2939 RST, but used in Sphinx for code blocks annotated with syntax
2940 information. Thanks to Luke Plant for the patch.
2942 * Added "head" to list of block-level HTML tags. Resolves
2945 * Added stripTags to Text.Pandoc.XML. This is used in the HTML writer.
2947 * Set utf-8 encoding in texinfo headers.
2949 * Docbook writer: add ids to sections. Use link for internal links.
2952 * Blank lines after lists in MediaWiki writer.
2954 * Properly handle commented-out list items in markdown.
2955 Resolves Issue #142. Example:
2963 * Changed heuristic in compactify. compactify has to decide whether a
2964 Para that ends a list is a Para intentionally, or just because of
2965 the blank lines at the end of every list. In the latter case the
2966 Para is turned to a Plain. The old heuristic was: change final Para
2967 to Plain iff the other items all end in Plain. This produces bad
2968 results when, for example, an item contains just a Plain and an HTML
2969 comment, as it does in the list above. The new heuristic: change
2970 final Para to Plain iff the other items don't contain a Para.
2972 * Added % as an rst underline character. Resolves Issue #173.
2974 * Fix inline math parser so that \$ is allowed in math.
2975 Resolves Issue #169.
2977 * Translate \int (integral) into unicode when using unicode math
2978 method. Resolves Issue #177.
2980 * markdown2pdf.hs improvements:
2981 + Use System.IO.UTF8.
2982 + Print error messages on last attempt.
2983 + Do not create a backup when overwriting a PDF (Issue #166).
2984 + Accept --longopt=val options.
2985 + Added man/man1/markdown2pdf.1 to extra-tmp-files in cabal, so that
2986 it is properly cleaned.
2988 * Added haddock comments warning that readers assume \n line endings.
2990 * Updated COPYRIGHT file.
2992 * Makefile: Changed EXECSBASE so it doesn't pull in hsmarkdown &
2993 markdown2pdf. Otherwise strip tries to strip shell scripts when you
2994 install using 'make'.
2996 * Changed Makefile so it doesn't build Haskell wrappers.
2998 * Fixed Makefile so it doesn't try to build man pages in build-doc.
3000 * Install pcre3.dll in Windows install script; this allows us to
3001 package a version of pandoc with highlighting support.
3007 * Fixed regression with --preserveTabs. Brought back optPreserveTabs.
3008 The trick of setting tabStop to 0 to mean "preserve tabs" had a bad
3009 side effect: strings of 0 spaces were interpreted as indentation.
3010 So, with --preserve-tabs, unindented paragraphs were treated as
3011 code. Resolves Issue #138.
3013 * HTML writer: wrap sections in divs. Resolves Issue #70.
3015 + hierarchicalize has been rationalized; it builds a hierarchical
3016 representation of the document from the headers, and simultaneously
3017 gives each section a unique identifier based on the heading title.
3018 + Identifiers are now attached to the divs rather than
3019 to the headers themselves.
3020 + Table of content backlinks go to the beginning of the table, rather
3021 than to the section reference that was clicked.
3022 + Code for constructing identifiers has been moved to Text.Pandoc.Shared
3023 from the HTML writer, since it is now consumed only by
3025 + In --strict mode, pandoc just prints bare headings, as before
3026 (unless --toc has been specified).
3027 + In s5 output, it does not wrap sections in divs, as that seems to
3028 confuse the s5 javascript.
3030 * Man writer: break lines at end of each sentence. groff expects this
3031 and treats '.' and '?' differently when followed by line ending as
3032 opposed to ordinary space. Also, don't escape periods. Instead, use
3033 zero-width character \& to avoid unwanted interpretation of periods
3034 at start of line. Resolves Issue #148.
3036 * Markdown writer: Added '#' and '>' to list of characters to be
3037 escaped in markdown output. Removed '<', as it is not an officially
3038 escapable character. This partially resolves Issue #96.
3040 * Make --smart the default for man output format. Otherwise we have
3041 trouble dividing lists of endlines into sentences.
3043 * DocBook writer: Use language attribute to indicate source language
3048 + Allow # to continue list, even if the list was started with an
3049 explicit marker. For example:
3054 Resolves Issue #140.
3055 + Allow continuation lines in line blocks. Also added test cases for
3056 line blocks for RST reader. Resolves Issue #149.
3057 + Allow explicit links with spaces in URL: `link <to this>`_
3059 * Improved LaTeX reader's coverage of math modes. Remove displaymath*
3060 (which is not in LaTeX) and recognize all the amsmath environments
3061 that are alternatives to eqnarray, namely equation, equation*,
3062 gather, gather*, gathered, multline, multline*, align, align*,
3063 alignat, alignat*, aligned, alignedat, split. Resolves Issue #103.
3064 Thanks to shreevatsa.public for the patch.
3068 + Allow -, _, :, . in markdown attribute names. These are legal in
3069 XML attribute names.
3070 + Use non-breaking spaces in abbreviations.
3071 + Markdown reader: improved efficiency of abbreviation parsing.
3072 Instead of a separate abbrev parser, we just check for
3073 abbreviations each time we parse a string. This gives a huge
3074 performance boost with -S. Resolves Issue #141.
3076 * Improved efficiency of shared parsers: hexNum, htmlComment,
3077 whitespace, indentSpaces.
3079 * Export HTMLMathMethod in Text.Pandoc.
3081 * Export languagesByExtension in Text.Pandoc.Highlighting.
3083 * Added new Haskell version of markdown2pdf, due to
3084 Paulo Tanimoto. This should be more portable than the old
3087 * Made 'pandoc -v' more explicit about compiler options.
3088 Resolves Issue #139.
3090 * pandoc.hs: Made --strict compatible with --standalone, --toc.
3092 * Use Paths_pandoc to get version number, instead of hard-coding it
3093 into Text/Pandoc.hs.
3099 * Added support for literate Haskell. lhs support is triggered by
3100 '+lhs' suffixes in formats. For example, 'latex+lhs' is literate
3101 Haskell LaTeX. '.lhs' files are treated by default as literate
3104 + Added stateLiterateHaskell to parser state.
3105 + Added parser for lhsCodeBlock to Markdown, RST, LaTeX readers.
3106 + Added parser for |inline lhs| to LaTeX reader.
3107 + Added writerLiterateHaskell to WriterOptions.
3108 + Added lhs support to Markdown, RST, LaTeX, HTML writers.
3109 + Added definition of code environment to LaTeX header.
3110 + Added tests (run only if highlighting support compiled in).
3111 + Documented lhs features in man page and README.
3113 * In Text.Pandoc.Definition, added processWith, processWithM,
3114 and queryWith, and deprecated processPandoc and queryPandoc
3115 for these more general functions.
3117 * Fixed bug in mediawiki writer: improper closing tags in tables.
3118 Thanks to Benct Philip Jonsson for reporting the bug.
3120 * Added --email-obfuscation option.
3122 + Added writer option for email obfuscation.
3123 + Implemented email obfuscation options in HTML writer.
3124 + Added option to option parser.
3125 + Documented in README and pandoc man page.
3126 + Resolves Issue #97.
3128 * LaTeX writer: fixed bug with empty table cells.
3129 Resolves Issue #107. Thanks to rodja.trappe for the patch.
3131 * Fixed bug with header spacing in Markdown and RST writers.
3132 A null header (Meta [] [] []) should not cause a blank line
3133 at the beginning of output. But a blank line is needed between
3134 a non-null header and the main text.
3136 * Markdown reader: Relax spacing rules for $$ in display math. Now
3137 space and newlines are allowed after the opening $$ and before the
3138 closing $$. However, the display math cannot contain an entirely
3139 blank line. Resolves Issue #105.
3141 * Markdown reader: Gobble space after Plain blocks containing only
3142 raw html inline. Otherwise following header blocks are not parsed
3143 correctly, since the parser sees blank space before them. Resolves
3146 * Markdown reader: Allow " as well as '' to end a latex double-quote.
3148 * Conditionally depend on syb and base >= 4 if ghc >= 6.10.
3149 Resolves Issue #109.
3151 * Fixed problems in RST and markdown output due to bug in pretty-1.0.1.0
3153 + Added hang' function to Text.Pandoc.Shared; this will be used instead
3154 of hang, which doesn't work properly in pretty-1.0.1.0. When pretty
3155 is upgraded, we can go back to hang.
3156 See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.general/16687
3157 + Use hang' (and some different techniques) in RST and markdown writers.
3158 Some output is now a bit different.
3160 * Brought citeproc support up to date for citeproc-hs-0.2.
3161 (Patch by Andrea Rossato.)
3163 * Moved all haskell source to src subdirectory. Renamed Main.hs to
3166 * Rewrote hsmarkdown in Haskell for portability (src/hsmarkdown.hs).
3167 For now, keeping the old shell script too.
3169 * Added TemplateHaskell to Extensions for executable, removed
3170 -threaded for library. Thanks to duncan.coutts for the bug report.
3171 Resolves Issue #121.
3173 * Moved some Extra-Source-Files to Data-Files.
3175 * Moved tabFilter to Shared.
3177 * In pandoc.hs, removed optPreserveTabs; instead, tabstop of 0 means
3180 * Minor code cleanup based on hlint suggestions.
3188 + Changed date on copyright message in Main.hs.
3189 + Have the '-v' option print syntax highlighting languages
3190 separated by commas, and wrapped in lines, instead of in five
3193 * Added --jsmath option. Resolves Issue #68.
3195 + Added --jsmath option to Main.hs
3196 + Added JsMath to HTMLMathMethod in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3197 + Handle math appropriately in HTML writer when JsMath selected.
3198 + Documented the option in README and man page.
3200 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Changed compactify to use a better heuristic
3201 for tight and loose lists. Final Para is changed to Plain if all
3202 other list items *end* with a Plain block. Addresses Issue #99.
3206 + Added colons to protocols in unsanitaryURI. Closes Issue #88.
3207 + HTML reader: Don't interpret contents of <pre> blocks as markdown.
3208 Added rawVerbatimBlock parser. Resolves Issue #94.
3212 + Allow URLs with spaces in them in links and references, but escape
3214 + Allow blank space at the end of horizontal rules.
3216 * RST reader: Modified 'unknownDirective' parser to handle comment
3217 blocks correctly, and added tests for comment blocks. Resolves Issue
3218 #86. Closes Debian Bug #500662.
3222 + Include classes on tr elements in HTML output:
3223 "header", "odd", "even". This allows tables to be styled with
3224 lines in alternating colors. Resolves Issue #91.
3225 + Enclose all LaTeXMathML bits in <span class="LaTeX">.
3226 This prevents parts of the document that are not math from being
3227 interpreted as math by LaTeXMathML.js.
3229 * OpenDocument and ODT writers: Added support for HorizontalRule elements,
3230 which were formerly ignored. Resolves Issue #95.
3232 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Modified wrappedTeX to eliminate the line break
3233 between a footnote and immediately following nonspace characters in
3234 LaTeX and ConTeXt output. (This gets interpreted as a space, which
3235 is not desired in cases like "text^[note]---".) Resolves Issue #93.
3237 * Windows installer: Don't require admin privileges to run
3238 installer. Modified pandoc-setup.iss, and changed modpath.iss to
3239 modify HKCU path if user lacks admin privileges. Also fixed case
3240 where oldpath is empty (previously this led to the new path
3241 beginning with a semicolon).
3243 * Updated INSTALL instructions for Arch packages and OS X install using
3246 * Removed the (now unneeded) debian directory.
3247 Removed empty Codec and System directories.
3249 * Moved odt-styles/ to data/. Removed unneeded variable in Makefile.
3251 * Modified Setup.hs so that the "test" target returns an error status
3252 when tests fail, and "build" returns a success status if
3253 the build succeeds. Resolves Issue #100.
3255 * Added BUGS to files in tarball.
3262 * Removed spurious reference to pdf output format from pandoc(1) man page.
3268 * Added new OpenDocument writer.
3270 * Added support for SmallCaps inline element.
3272 * Added support for integrating pandoc with citeproc-hs.
3274 + Added Cite element to definition and writers.
3275 + Added Text.Pandoc.Biblio module
3276 + Note: This support is included only if the 'citeproc'
3277 Cabal configuration flag is set.
3279 * Made Pandoc data structure an instance of Typeable.
3280 Added new processPandoc and queryPandoc functions, to query
3281 or transform matching elements in a Pandoc structure.
3285 * Added new Texinfo writer.
3289 * Changes to Texinfo writer:
3291 + No space between paragraph and following @verbatim (provides more
3292 pleasing appearance in text formats)
3293 + Blank line consistently after list environments.
3295 + Use @code instead of @verb for inline code (this solves the character
3296 escaping problem for texi2dvi and texi2pdf).
3297 + Added news of Texinfo writer to README.
3298 + Added Texinfo to list of formats in man page, and removed extra 'groff'.
3299 + Added texi & texinfo extensions to Main.hs, and fixed bug in determining
3300 default output extension.
3301 + Modified disallowedInNode in Texinfo writer to correct list of disallowed characters.
3303 * Added tests for OpenDocument writer.
3305 * Added ODT writer (using zip-archive library to package output of
3306 OpenDocument writer). Added odt-styles directory with default ODT styles.
3308 * Added new mediawiki writer and tests.
3310 * Markdown reader: Added support for delimited code blocks, with optional
3311 syntax highlighting using highlighting-kate (if the 'highlighting'
3312 configuration option is selected).
3314 + Currently highlighting is supported only in the HTML writer.
3315 + Delimited code blocks can have attributes; using the language name as
3316 class triggers highlighting.
3317 + New Attributes parameter in CodeBlock structure.
3318 + --version now indicates whether syntax highlighting support is compiled
3319 in, and prints a list of supported languages
3321 * Removed debian directory. Pandoc is no longer a native debian package.
3323 * Changes to build process: pandoc can now be built from the repository
3324 using Cabal. No unix tools are needed (so, pandoc can be built on Windows
3327 + Include shell scripts themselves in repo, rather than generating from wrappers.
3328 Removed wrappers directory and wrappers Makefile target.
3329 + Text/Pandoc/ASCIIMathML.hs, Text/Pandoc/DefaultHeaders.hs,
3330 and Text/Pandoc/Writers/S5.hs are no longer built in Makefile
3331 from templates in the templates/ directory. Instead, they use template
3332 haskell to read data at compile time from the relevant files in data/.
3333 Template haskell functions go in a new module, Text.Pandoc.TH.
3334 + man pages are now generated in Setup.hs hook, not by Makefile
3335 + Makefile 'tarball' target now calls Cabal's 'sdist'
3336 + Added "Extra-Source-Files" to pandoc.cabal, so sdist contains everything needed
3337 + Added "Build-Type" field to pandoc.cabal to avoid warning.
3338 + Added to "Extra-source-files" and "Extra-tmp-files" in pandoc.cabal,
3339 so 'sdist' and 'clean' will work properly.
3340 + Setup.hs now generates man pages in a postbuild hook.
3341 + Added dependency-checking to Setup.hs, so it only rebuilds things
3342 that need rebuilding.
3343 + Added 'library' and 'executable' configuration flags.
3344 Cabal can now be told to build just the library or just the executable.
3345 + CABALOPTS may now be specified with 'make' to pass Cabal configuration flags.
3346 For example: CABALOPTS=-fhighlighting make
3348 * Rewrote test suite so it doesn't depend on perl or unix tools.
3350 + Replaced old runtests.pl with a Haskell script RunTests.hs.
3351 + Added Diff.hs module to be used by RunTests.hs instead of unix 'diff'.
3352 + Added test hook to Setup.hs, so tests may be run from cabal.
3353 + Changed Makefile's 'test' target to run tests via cabal.
3354 + Removed old generate.sh.
3355 + Since we no longer have 'sed' to filter out raw HTML sections
3356 from the docbook writer test, or raw LaTeX sections from the
3357 context writer test, we now just include these sections.
3358 They can be taken out if it is necessary to process the files.
3359 + Updated latex and context writer tests to remove extra spaces
3361 + Added a markdown table reader test.
3362 + Added markdown-reader-more.txt to test suite, for additional test cases
3363 for raw ConTeXt environments and more.
3365 * Compatibility fixes for CPP, Cabal, and haddock:
3367 + Use CPP in "Extensions" field in pandoc.cabal.
3368 + Removed use of backslash string continuations in source files.
3370 * Removed pandoc.cabal.ghc66. We now require Cabal >= 1.2, GHC >= 6.8,
3373 * Require parsec < 3.
3374 The compatibility module in parsec 3.0.0 gives far worse performance than
3375 parsec 2.1. Eventually pandoc will be upgraded to use the new bytestring
3376 version of parsec, and then we'll go to parsec 3.0.0.
3378 * Removed Text.Regex dependencies by rewriting using plain Haskell
3379 (Text.Pandoc.Writers.RTF, Text.Pandoc.Writers.HTML, Main.hs)
3381 * Moved Text.Pandoc.Writers.DefaultHeaders -> Text.Pandoc.DefaultHeaders.
3385 + Added 'configure' as dependency of 'uninstall-all'.
3386 (It uses the Cabal build program.)
3387 + Makefile: only use --with-hc-pkg if GHC_PKG is defined.
3388 Note that Cabal will automatically choose the ghc-pkg appropriate
3389 for the compiler selected, so normally specifying GHC by itself
3392 * Removed Text.Pandoc.UTF8 module; instead, depend on utf8-string and use
3393 its IO and conversion functions.
3395 * Added -Wall to ghc-options in pandoc.cabal. Cleaned up modules so that
3396 everything is -Wall clean.
3398 + Added pragma to HTML writer to avoid deprecation warning for use of "start" attribute.
3399 + Added pragma to Text/Pandoc/Shared.hs to get rid of "orphan instance" warnings.
3400 (These are caused by the Lift instance for ByteString.)
3402 * Changed the comment used to replace unsafe HTML if sanitize-html option
3405 * Made -c/--css option repeatable on the command line (like -H, -A, -B).
3407 * Moved XML-formatting functions to new unexported module Text.Pandoc.XML.
3409 * Escape '\160' as " ", not " " in XML.
3410 "nbsp" isn't a predefined XML entity.
3412 * Fixed bug in RST reader, which would choke on: "p. one\ntwo\n".
3413 Added some try's in ordered list parsers.
3415 * Man writer: don't escape " as \".
3417 * Allow newline before URL in markdown link references. Resolves Issue #81.
3418 Added tests for this issue in new "markdown-reader-more" tests.
3419 Changed RunTests.hs to run these tests.
3421 * Support for display math. Resolves Issue #47.
3423 + Added a DisplayMath/InlineMath selector to Math inlines.
3424 + Markdown parser yields DisplayMath for $$...$$.
3425 + LaTeX parser yields DisplayMath when appropriate. Removed
3426 mathBlock parsers, since the same effect is achieved by the math
3427 inline parsers, now that they handle display math.
3428 + Writers handle DisplayMath as appropriate for the format.
3429 + Modified tests accordingly; added new tests for display math.
3431 * Use LaTeXMathML instead of ASCIIMathML. LaTeXMathML is closer
3432 to LaTeX in its display of math, and supports many non-math LaTeX environments.
3434 + Changed -m option to use LaTeXMathML rather than ASCIIMathML.
3435 + Modified HTML writer to print raw TeX when LaTeXMathML is
3436 being used instead of suppressing it.
3437 + Removed ASCIIMathML files from data/ and added LaTeXMathML.
3438 + Replaced ASCIIMathML with LaTeXMathML in source files.
3439 + Modified README and pandoc man page source.
3440 + Added --latexmathml option (kept --asciimathml as a synonym
3441 for backwards compatibility)
3443 * Markdown reader: Parse setext headers before atx headers.
3447 parsed by Markdown.pl as an H1 header with contents "# hi".
3449 * Markdown reader: Treat "mixed" lists the same way as Markdown.pl does.
3450 The marker on the first list item determines the type of the whole
3451 list. Thus, a list like
3455 gets parsed as a single ordered list. (Previous versions of pandoc
3456 treated this as an ordered list with an unordered sublist.)
3458 * Markdown smart typography:
3460 + Em dashes no longer eat surrounding whitespace. Resolves Issue #69.
3461 + Use nonbreaking spaces after known abbreviations in markdown parser.
3462 Thus, for example, "Mr. Brown" comes out as "Mr.~Brown" in LaTeX, and does
3463 not produce a sentence-separating space. Resolves Issue #75.
3465 * Markdown writer: Print unicode \160 literally, rather than as .
3467 * Treat '\ ' in (extended) markdown as nonbreaking space.
3468 Print nonbreaking space appropriately in each writer (e.g. ~ in LaTeX).
3470 * The '--sanitize-html' option now examines URIs in markdown links
3471 and images, and in HTML href and src attributes. If the URI scheme
3472 is not on a whitelist of safe schemes, it is rejected. The main point
3473 is to prevent cross-site scripting attacks using 'javascript:' URIs.
3474 See http://www.mail-archive.com/markdown-discuss@six.pairlist.net/msg01186.html
3475 and http://ha.ckers.org/xss.html. Resolves Issue #62.
3479 + Override Text.XHtml's stringToHtml function,
3480 so that characters below 0xff are not converted to numerical entity
3481 references. Also convert '\160' to " ". This should aid readability
3482 and editability of the HTML source. It does presuppose that the HTML
3483 will be served as UTF-8.
3484 + In code blocks, change leading newlines to <br /> tags.
3485 (Some browsers ignore them.) Resolves Issue #71.
3486 See http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/markdown-discuss/2008-May/001297.html
3487 + Use style attributes rather than css classes for strikethrough
3488 and ordered list styles. This works better when fragments, rather than
3489 standalone documents, are generated.
3491 * HTML reader: Count anything that isn't a known block (HTML) tag as an
3492 inline tag (rather than the other way around). Added "html", "head", and
3493 "body" to list of block tags. Resolves Issue #66, allowing
3494 <lj> to count as an inline tag.
3496 * RTF writer: Fixed bug. Extra spaces were being printed after emphasized,
3497 boldface, and other inline elements. Resolves Issue #64.
3499 * LaTeX reader: improvements in raw LaTeX parsing.
3501 + "loose punctuation" (like {}) parsed as Space
3502 + Para elements must contain more than Str "" and Space elements
3503 + Added parser for "\ignore" command used in literate haskell.
3504 + Reworked unknownCommand and rawLaTeXInline: when not in "parse raw"
3505 mode, these parsers simply strip off the command part and allow
3506 the arguments to be parsed normally. So, for example,
3507 \blorg{\emph{hi}} will be parsed as Emph "hi" rather than
3509 + Parse lhs "code" environments as verbatim.
3510 Refactored parsers for verbatim environments.
3511 + Removed specialEnvironment parser.
3512 + parse '{}', if present, after \textless, \textgreater,
3513 \textbar, \textbackslash, \ldots.
3514 + Parse unescaped special characters verbatim rather than
3515 changing them to spaces. This way arguments of unknown
3516 commands will appear in braces.
3518 * Parse raw ConTeXt environments as TeX in markdown reader.
3521 * Moved BlockWrapper and wrappedBlocksToDoc from ConTeXt writer to Shared.
3523 * Made some structural changes to parsing of raw LaTeX environments.
3524 Previously there was a special block parser for LaTeX environments.
3525 It returned a Para element containing the raw TeX inline. This has
3526 been removed, and the raw LaTeX environment parser is now used in the
3527 rawLaTeXInline parser. The effect is exactly the same, except that we
3528 can now handle consecutive LaTeX and ConTeXt environments not separated
3529 by spaces. This new flexibility is required by the example in
3532 \placeformula \startformula
3536 API change: The LaTeX reader now exports rawLaTeXEnvironment' (which
3537 returns a string) rather than rawLaTeXEnvironment (which returns a block
3538 element). This is more likely to be useful in other applications.
3540 * Use \textsubscr instead of \textsubscript for LaTeX subscript macro.
3541 \textsubscript conflicts with a definition in the memoir class.
3544 * Removed unneeded space after "\\item" in LaTeX and ConTeXt output.
3546 * Added amsmath package to default LaTeX header. Resolves Issue #48.
3548 * Added \setupitemize[autointro] to ConTeXt header, to prevent orphaned
3549 list introduction lines.
3551 * Changed Float to Double in definition of Table element.
3552 (Double is more efficient in GHC.)
3554 * Fixed bug in Markdown parser: regular $s triggering math mode.
3555 For example: "shoes ($20) and socks ($5)."
3556 The fix consists in two new restrictions:
3558 + the $ that ends a math span may not be directly followed by a digit.
3559 + no blank lines may be included within a math span.
3561 Thanks to Joseph Reagle for noticing the bug.
3563 * Use Data.List's 'intercalate' instead of custom 'joinWithSep'.
3564 Removed 'joinWithSep' from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3566 * Updated README and man pages. Acknowledge contributors in README.
3567 Added paragraph to README about producing S5 with separate CSS/javascript.
3569 * Updated INSTALL to reflect new build system (including configuration
3570 options) and document new dependencies. Added note to INSTALL that
3571 Cabal >= 1.2 is required for build. Resolves Issue #74.
3573 * Fixed some haddock documentation errors.
3575 * Small fix to markdown2pdf man page: only input needs to be piped through iconv.
3577pandoc (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
3581 * Made -H, -A, and -B options cumulative: if they are specified
3582 multiple times, multiple files will be included.
3584 * Added optional HTML sanitization using a whitelist.
3585 When this option is specified (--sanitize-html on the command line),
3586 unsafe HTML tags will be replaced by HTML comments, and unsafe HTML
3587 attributes will be removed. This option should be especially useful
3588 for those who want to use pandoc libraries in web applications, where
3589 users will provide the input.
3591 + Main.hs: Added --sanitize-html option.
3593 + Text.Pandoc.Shared: Added stateSanitizeHTML to ParserState.
3595 + Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML:
3596 - Added whitelists of sanitaryTags and sanitaryAttributes.
3597 - Added parsers to check these lists (and state) to see if a given
3598 tag or attribute should be counted unsafe.
3599 - Modified anyHtmlTag and anyHtmlEndTag to replace unsafe tags
3601 - Modified htmlAttribute to remove unsafe attributes.
3602 - Modified htmlScript and htmlStyle to remove these elements if
3605 + Modified README and man pages to document new option.
3607 * Improved handling of email addresses in markdown and reStructuredText.
3608 Consolidated uri and email address parsers. (Resolves Issue #37.)
3610 + New emailAddress and uri parsers in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3611 - uri parser uses parseURI from Network.URI.
3612 - emailAddress parser properly handles email addresses with periods
3615 + Removed uri and emailAddress parsers from Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST
3616 and Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown.
3620 + Fixed emph parser so that "*hi **there***" is parsed as a Strong
3621 nested in an Emph. (A '*' is only recognized as the end of the
3622 emphasis if it's not the beginning of a strong emphasis.)
3624 + Moved blockQuote parser before list parsers for performance.
3626 + Modified 'source' parser to allow backslash-escapes in URLs.
3627 So, for example, [my](/url\(1\)) yields a link to /url(1).
3630 + Disallowed links within links. (Resolves Issue #35.)
3631 - Replaced inlinesInBalanced with inlinesInBalancedBrackets, which
3632 instead of hard-coding the inline parser takes an inline parser
3634 - Modified reference and inlineNote to use inlinesInBalancedBrackets.
3635 - Removed unneeded inlineString function.
3636 - Added inlineNonLink parser, which is now used in the definition of
3638 - Added inlineParsers list and redefined inline and inlineNonLink parsers
3640 - Added failIfLink parser.
3642 + Better handling of parentheses in URLs and quotation marks in titles.
3643 - 'source' parser first tries to parse URL with balanced parentheses;
3644 if that doesn't work, it tries to parse everything beginning with
3645 '(' and ending with ')'.
3646 - source parser now uses an auxiliary function source'.
3647 - linkTitle parser simplified and improved, under assumption that it
3648 will be called in context of source'.
3650 + Make 'block' conditional on strictness state, instead of using
3651 failIfStrict in block parsers. Use a different ordering of parsers
3652 in strict mode (raw HTML block before paragraph) for performance.
3653 In non-strict mode use rawHtmlBlocks instead of htmlBlock.
3654 Simplified htmlBlock, since we know it's only called in strict
3657 + Improved handling of raw HTML. (Resolves Issue #36.)
3658 - Tags that can be either block or inline (e.g. <ins>) should
3659 be treated as block when appropriate and as inline when
3660 appropriate. Thus, for example,
3662 should be treated as a paragraph with inline <ins> tags, while
3666 should be treated as a paragraph within <ins> tags.
3667 - Moved htmlBlock after para in list of block parsers. This ensures
3668 that tags that can be either block or inline get parsed as inline
3670 - Modified rawHtmlInline' so that block elements aren't treated as
3672 - Modified para parser so that paragraphs containing only HTML tags and
3673 blank space are not allowed. Treat these as raw HTML blocks instead.
3675 + Fixed bug wherein HTML preceding a code block could cause it to
3676 be parsed as a paragraph. The problem is that the HTML parser
3677 used to eat all blank space after an HTML block, including the
3678 indentation of the code block. (Resolves Issue #39.)
3679 - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML, removed parsing of following space
3681 - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown, modified rawHtmlBlocks so that
3682 indentation is eaten *only* on the first line after the HTML
3683 block. This means that in
3687 the foo won't be treated as a code block, but in
3693 it will. This seems the right approach for least surprise.
3697 + Fixed bug in parsing explicit links (resolves Issue #44).
3698 The problem was that we were looking for inlines until a '<' character
3699 signaled the start of the URL; so, if you hit a reference-style link,
3700 it would keep looking til the end of the document. Fix: change
3701 inline => (notFollowedBy (char '`') >> inline). Note that this won't
3702 allow code inlines in links, but these aren't allowed in resT anyway.
3704 + Cleaned up parsing of reference names in key blocks and links.
3705 Allow nonquoted reference links to contain isolated '.', '-', '_', so
3706 so that strings like 'a_b_' count as links.
3708 + Removed unnecessary check for following link in str.
3709 This is unnecessary now that link is above str in the definition of
3714 + Modified rawHtmlBlock so it parses </html> and </body> tags.
3715 This allows these tags to be handled correctly in Markdown.
3716 HTML reader now uses rawHtmlBlock', which excludes </html> and </body>,
3717 since these are handled in parseHtml. (Resolves Issue #38.)
3719 + Fixed bug (emph parser was looking for <IT> tag, not <I>).
3721 + Don't interpret contents of style tags as markdown.
3722 (Resolves Issue #40.)
3723 - Added htmlStyle, analagous to htmlScript.
3724 - Use htmlStyle in htmlBlockElement and rawHtmlInline.
3725 - Moved "script" from the list of tags that can be either block or
3726 inline to the list of block tags.
3728 + Modified rawHtmlBlock to use anyHtmlBlockTag instead of anyHtmlTag
3729 and anyHtmlEndTag. This fixes a bug in markdown parsing, where
3730 inline tags would be included in raw HTML blocks.
3732 + Modified anyHtmlBlockTag to test for (not inline) rather than
3733 directly for block. This allows us to handle e.g. docbook in
3734 the markdown reader.
3736 * LaTeX reader: Properly recognize --parse-raw in rawLaTeXInline.
3737 Updated LaTeX reader test to use --parse-raw.
3741 + Modified rules for automatic HTML header identifiers to
3742 ensure that identifiers begin with an alphabetic character.
3743 The new rules are described in README. (Resolves Issue #33.)
3745 + Changed handling of titles in HTML writer so you don't get
3746 "titleprefix - " followed by nothing.
3748 * ConTeXt writer: Use wrappers around Doc elements to ensure proper
3749 spacing. Each block element is wrapped with either Pad or Reg.
3750 Pad'ed elements are guaranteed to have a blank line in between.
3754 + Refactored RST writer to use a record instead of a tuple for state,
3755 and to include options in state so it doesn't need to be passed as
3758 + Use an interpreted text role to render math in restructuredText.
3759 See http://www.american.edu/econ/itex2mml/mathhack.rst for the
3764 * Debian packaging changes:
3766 + Remove the empty 'include' directory in -dev package, which lintian
3768 + Bump Standarts-Version to 3.7.3.
3769 + Use new 'Homepage:' field to specify the upstream URL on suggestion of
3772 -- Recai Oktaş <roktas@debian.org> Tue, 08 Jan 2008 05:13:31 +0200
3774pandoc (0.45) unstable; urgency=low
3778 * Simplified parsing of reference keys and notes in markdown and RST
3779 readers: The Reference data structure from Text.Pandoc.Shared is no
3780 longer needed, since referenceKey and noteBlock parses return strings
3781 (as many blank lines as were occupied by the key or note) and update
3782 state themselves. getPosition and setPosition are now used to ensure
3783 that error messages will give the correct line number. This yields
3784 cleaner (and slightly faster) code, with more accurate parsing error
3787 * Added new Math inline element:
3789 + Markdown and LaTeX readers now convert TeX math into Math elements,
3791 + This allows math to be treated differently from raw TeX in output.
3792 TeX elements are no longer printed in output formats other than
3793 Markdown, LaTeX, and ConTeXt. But Math elements are always printed.
3795 * New default handling of math in writers:
3797 + New module Text.Pandoc.Readers.TeXMath exports readTeXMath, which
3798 parses raw TeX math and outputs a string of Pandoc inlines that
3799 tries to render it as far as possible using unicode characters,
3800 lapsing into literal TeX when needed.
3801 + readTeXMath is now used for default HTML output in HTML, S5, RTF,
3802 and Docbook, if no other method for displaying math in HTML is
3803 specified. Enclosing $'s are no longer printed by default.
3804 + By default, math is put inside <span class="math">. This way it can be
3805 distinguished from the surrounding text, e.g. put in a different
3808 * New --gladtex and --mimetex options for display of math in HTML:
3810 + If --gladtex is specified, math is output between <eq> tags, so
3811 it can be processed by gladTeX.
3812 + If --mimetex is specified, math is put in <img> tags with a link
3813 to the mimetex CGI script (or any other script that takes TeX math
3814 as input and outputs an image). The URL of the script may be
3815 specified, but defaults to /cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi.
3816 + HTMLMathMethod structure in WriterOptions keeps track of how to
3817 display math in HTML output.
3818 + Updated README with a description of the four options for displaying
3823 + Fixed bug: parser for minimized attributes should not swallow
3825 + Simplified HTML attribute parsing.
3826 + Changed parsing of code blocks in HTML reader: <code> tag is no
3827 longer needed. <pre> suffices. All HTML tags in the code block
3828 (e.g. for syntax highlighting) are skipped, because they are not
3829 portable to other output formats. A <code>...</code> block not
3830 surrounded by <pre> now counts as inline HTML, not a code block.
3831 + Remove just one leading and one trailing newline from contents of
3832 <pre>...</pre> in codeBlock parser.
3836 + Removed support for box-style block quotes.
3837 + Require space before title in links and references.
3838 This fixes a bug in parsing URLs like http://silly/url(withparen).
3839 + Improved and simplified setextHeader parser.
3840 + Fixed logic in smart quote parsing, adding some needed 'try'
3842 + Fixed smart quote parsing so that unicode characters 8216 and 8217
3843 are recognized as single quotes, and 8220 and 8221 as double quotes.
3847 + Fixed bug in parsing of code blocks. Previously a full tab indent
3848 was required, but RST allows code to be indented any amount.
3850 + Allow field lists to be indented.
3851 + Parse the contents of field lists instead of treating as a raw string.
3852 + Represent field lists as definition lists instead of blockquotes.
3853 + Fixed bug in which metadata would be overridden if the document
3854 contained multiple field lists.
3855 + Parse fields associated with '.. image::' blocks, and use 'alt'
3856 field, if given, for image alt and title attributes.
3860 + Modified specialChar so that '"' characters are parsed.
3861 + Fixed a bug in parsing of \[ \] math blocks (thanks to Mark Kalderon).
3865 + Changes in handling of math (see above).
3866 + Don't produce HTML for table of contents if there are
3867 no headers. (This would be an empty list, which is invalid XHTML.)
3871 + Don't print title attribute if title is empty. (This differs from
3872 the behavior of Markdown.pl, and agrees with PHP Markdown. But John
3873 Gruber has indicated that he prefers this behavior.) Adjusted test
3875 + Fixed incorrect line wrapping in paragraphs including hard line
3876 breaks. Resolves Issue #25.
3877 + Fixed bug in markdown writer: If an ordered list item began with
3878 a marker greater than 3 characters in width, and the item took more
3879 than one line, it would appear on the line after the list marker,
3886 Now it works as follows:
3893 + Fixed bug in RST writer's handling of ordered lists. Previously,
3894 list items with multiple lines would not always line up with
3895 single-line list items. Now, list items are nested the length of
3896 the list marker + 1. This looks better and ensures that list items
3897 all line up. (Note that list markers are padded to the length of
3898 the longest list marker in the series.)
3899 + Use 3-space indent for unordered lists.
3900 + If label for a link reference contains a colon, surround it by `
3901 signs so it won't be interpreted as the end of the link label.
3905 + Cleaner output for footnotes. Footnotes now always begin on a new
3906 line, and the final } is on a line by itself only when it needs to
3907 be (i.e. only when the note ends with a Verbatim environment).
3908 + Added writer options to state, so state doesn't need to be passed as
3910 + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
3912 * ConTeXt writer: many improvements for more idiomatic ConTeXt output
3913 (thanks to Idris Samawi Hamid for suggestions).
3915 + PrettyPrint module now used for output.
3916 + Writer options are now in state, so they don't have to be passed as
3918 + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
3919 + Better treatment of footnotes: footnotes are always on lines by
3920 themselves, and the final } is on a line by itself only when
3921 it needs to be (after \stoptyping).
3922 + Use \subject, \subsubject, ... or \section, \subsection, ... for headings,
3923 depending on whether --number-sections option is selected.
3924 + Extra blank line inserted after \stopitemize
3925 + Use new, "official" definition of blockquote environment. Also, use
3926 blank line after \startblockquote to balance blank line at the end.
3927 + Both itemized and enumerated lists are now generated using
3928 \start-stopitemize, with appropriate options. Removed definitions
3929 of ltxenum and ltxitem, which are no longer needed. Provided
3930 defaults for itemized lists in the preamble. State keeps track of
3931 ordered list level, so that when default numbering is specified,
3932 the appropriate scheme can be used.
3933 + Changed \useurl to \useURL.
3934 + Changed link color from red to blue.
3935 + Use \subsubsubsubsection etc., since these are supported
3936 (up to at least sub x 5).
3938 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
3940 + Save and restore position in parseFromString, so that accurate
3941 error messages can be given.
3942 + Improved efficiency of romanNumeral parser.
3943 + Added wrappedTeX and wrapTeXIfNeeded functions. These ensure
3944 that footnotes occur on lines by themselves (to make them
3945 easier to see and move) and do not screw up line wrapping.
3947 * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: modified fromUTF8 to strip out the BOM
3948 if present. Windows Notepad and other applications insert a
3949 BOM at the beginning of a UTF8 file.
3951 * Main.hs (tabFilter): Treat '\r' at end of line as newline (in
3952 addition to "\r\n" and '\n').
3954 * Added a writer option for wrapped text and a command-line option
3955 '--no-wrap', which disables text wrapping and minimizes whitespace
3956 in HTML. (Resolves Issue #26.)
3958 + Added support for '--no-wrap' to Main.hs.
3959 + Added wrapIfNeeded function to Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3960 + Use wrapIfNeeded instead of wrapped in the RST, Man, Docbook, and
3962 + Added render and renderFragment helpers to HTML writer.
3964 * Modified html2markdown to run tidy only if the HTML cannot be
3965 parsed. Previously html2markdown piped all input through tidy
3966 before passing it to pandoc. This caused problems on certain pages
3967 (e.g. http://daringfireball.com/markdown) which have well-formed
3968 XHTML that causes tidy to choke. The solution is to pipe through
3969 tidy only if pandoc cannot parse the input by itself. This means
3970 that a temp file is now always used, even when input comes from a
3971 local file or standard input.
3973 * Removed 'version' constant from Main.hs; added 'pandocVersion' to
3974 Text.Pandoc library.
3978 + Modified to work with GHC 6.8 and Cabal configurations. (For GHC
3979 6.8, pretty and containers must be added to Build-Depends, and it
3980 is desirable to use the -O2 compiler option.) Cabal configurations
3981 allows one to select options depending on the compiler version.
3982 For GHC 6.6, the splitBase option can be disabled.
3983 + pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is provided for users with older versions of
3984 Cabal, which do not support configurations.
3985 + Use Ghc-Prof-Options to ensure that '-auto-all' is used when
3986 '--enable-(executable|library)-profiling' is specified. Updated
3987 PROFILING instructions accordingly.
3991 + Makefile now checks GHC version. If GHC is 6.6, pandoc.cabal.ghc66
3992 is copied to pandoc.cabal, and the old pandoc.cabal is copied
3993 to pandoc.cabal.orig. Otherwise, pandoc.cabal is copied to
3994 pandoc.cabal.orig but otherwise unmodified. This way, the Makefile
3995 will work properly with either GHC 6.6 or 6.8.
3996 + Changed BUILDCONF to point to dist/setup-config, not .setup-config.
3997 This is where current versions of Cabal put it.
3998 + Added $(BUILDCMD) target, so setup doesn't get compiled every time.
3999 + Removed dependency of templates on ./templates, which is circular
4000 now that templates is a subdirectory of the top-level.
4002 * MacPorts Portfile:
4004 + Modified to install the pandoc library in addition to programs.
4005 + Installation must be done manually rather than using Makefile's
4007 + Note that the library must be registered in the activate phase,
4008 after the library files have been copied out of the destroot.
4009 Cabal generates a 'register.sh' script that will do this.
4011 * debian/control: Added libghc6-network-dev, libghc6-xhtml-dev, and
4012 libghc6-mtl-dev as dependencies for libghc6-pandoc-dev.
4015 * debian/rules: Converted to UTF-8.
4017 * Changed pandoc home page to http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/.
4019 * Updated ASCIIMathML.js to latest version.
4021 * Directory structure:
4023 + Moved everything from src into the top-level directory.
4024 + Changed references to source directory in Makefile and
4026 + Moved ASCIIMathML.js, headers, and ui into templates directory.
4027 + Modified fillTemplates.pl to reflect new paths.
4031 * Makefile: Fixed the issue of having two copies of the library
4032 documentation under some usage scenarios.
4034 * Replaced 'ghc' with '$(GHC)' in Makefile, and made GHC
4035 and GHC_PKG configurable through the environment, to support
4036 unusual ghc installations. For example:
4037 GHC=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc GHC_PKG=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc-pkg make

4045 * Fixed bug in HTML writer: when --toc was used, anchors were put around
4046 headers, which is invalid XHTML (block content within inline element).
4047 Now the anchors are put inside the header tags. Resolves Issue #23.
4049 * Added xmlns attribute to html element in html writer tests.
4050 This attribute is added by more recent versions of the
4051 xhtml library (>= 3000), and is required for valid XHTML.
4055 * On configure, compile 'Setup.hs' to 'setup' and use 'setup' as the build
4056 command instead of 'runhaskell', which, on some platforms (such as s390,
4057 alpha, m68k), throws the following error:
4059 runhaskell Setup.hs configure --prefix=/usr
4060 ghc-6.6.1: not built for interactive use

4070 * The focus of this release is performance. The markdown parser
4071 is about five times faster than in 0.42, based on benchmarks
4072 with the TextMate manual.
4074 * Main.hs: Replaced CRFilter and tabFilter with single function
4075 tabFilter, which operates on the whole string rather than breaking
4076 it into lines, and handles dos-style line-endings as well as tabs.
4078 * Added separate LaTeX reader and native reader tests; removed
4081 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
4083 + Removed tabsToSpaces and tabsInLine (they were used only in Main.hs.)
4084 + General code cleanup (to elimante warnings when compiling with -Wall.)
4085 + Added 'wrapped' function, which helps wrap text into paragraphs,
4086 using the prettyprinting library.
4087 + Rewrote charsInBalanced and charsInBalanced'.
4088 - Documented restriction: open and close must be distinct characters.
4089 - Rearranged options for greater efficiency.
4090 - Bug fix: Changed inner call to charsInBalanced inside
4091 charsInBalanced' to charsInBalanced'.
4092 + anyLine now requires that the line end with a newline (not eof).
4093 This is a harmless assumption, since we always add newlines to the
4094 end of a block before parsing with anyLine, and it yields a 10% speed
4096 + Removed unnecessary 'try' in anyLine.
4097 + Removed unneeded 'try' from romanNumeral parser.
4098 + Use notFollowedBy instead of notFollowedBy' in charsInBalanced.
4099 + Removed unneeded 'try' in parseFromString.
4100 + Removed unneeded 'try' from stringAnyCase. (Now it behaves
4102 + Changed definition of 'enclosed' in Text.Pandoc.Shared so that
4103 'try' is not automatically applied to the 'end' parser. Added
4104 'try' in calls to 'enclosed' where needed. Slight speed increase.
4108 + Replaced individual wrapping routines in RST, Man, and Markdown
4109 writers with 'wrapped' from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4110 + Rewrote LaTeX writer to use the prettyprinting library,
4111 so we get word wrapping, etc.
4112 + Modified latex writer tests for new latex writer using prettyprinter.
4113 + Fixed bug in LaTeX writer: autolinks would not cause
4114 '\usepackage{url}' to be put in the document header. Also, changes
4115 to state in enumerated list items would be overwritten.
4116 + In Markdown writer, escape paragraphs that begin with ordered list
4117 markers, so they don't get interpreted as ordered lists.
4119 * Text.Pandoc.Reades.LaTeX:
4121 + Fixed bug in LaTeX reader, which wrongly assumed that the roman
4122 numeral after "enum" in "setcounter" would consist entirely of
4123 "i"s. 'enumiv' is legitimate.
4124 + LaTeX command and environment names can't contain numbers.
4125 + Rearranged order of parsers in inline for slight speed improvement.
4126 + Added '`' to special characters and 'unescapedChar'.
4128 * Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST:
4130 + Removed unneeded try's in RST reader; also minor code cleanup.
4132 + Rearranged parsers in inline (doubled speed).
4134 * Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown:
4136 + Skip notes parsing if running in strict mode. (This yields a nice
4137 speed improvement in strict mode.)
4138 + Simplify autolink parsing code, using Network.URI to test for
4139 URIs. Added dependency on network library to debian/control and
4141 + More perspicuous definition of nonindentSpaces.
4142 + Removed unneeded 'try' in 'rawLine'.
4143 + Combined linebreak and whitespace into a new whitespace parser, to
4144 avoid unnecessary reparsing of space characters.
4145 + Removed unnecessary 'try' in 'codeBlock', 'ellipses', 'noteMarker',
4146 'multilineRow', 'dashedLine', 'rawHtmlBlocks'.
4147 + Use lookAhead in parsers for setext headers and definition lists
4148 to see if the next line begins appropriately; if not, don't waste
4149 any more time parsing.
4150 + Don't require blank lines after code block. (It's sufficient to
4151 end code block with a nonindented line.)
4152 + Changed definition of 'emph': italics with '_' must not
4153 be followed by an alphanumeric character. This is to help
4154 prevent interpretation of e.g. [LC_TYPE]: my_type as
4155 '[LC<em>TYPE]:my</em>type'.
4156 + Improved Markdown.pl-compatibility in referenceLink: the two parts
4157 of a reference-style link may be separated by one space, but not
4158 more... [a] [link], [not] [a link].
4159 + Fixed markdown inline code parsing so it better accords with
4160 Markdown.pl: the marker for the end of the code section is a clump
4161 of the same number of `'s with which the section began, followed
4162 by a non-` character. So, for example,
4163 ` h ``` i ` -> <code>h ``` i</code>.
4164 + Split 'title' into 'linkTitle' and 'referenceTitle', since the
4165 rules are slightly different.
4166 + Rewrote 'para' for greater efficiency.
4167 + Rewrote link parsers for greater efficiency.
4168 + Removed redundant 'referenceLink' in definition of inline (it's
4170 + Refactored escapeChar so it doesn't need 'try'.
4171 + Refactored hrule for performance in Markdown reader.
4172 + More intelligent rearranging of 'inline' so that most frequently
4173 used parsers are tried first.
4174 + Removed tabchar parser, as whitespace handles tabs anyway.
4176 * Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences:
4179 + Removed unnecessary 'try's for a speed improvement.
4180 + Removed unnecessary '&' and ';' from the entity table.
4184 + Makefile: Get VERSION from cabal file, not Main.hs.
4185 + Modified MacPorts Portfile:
4187 - Build and install libraries and library documentation in
4188 addition to pandoc executable
4189 - Added template item for md5 sum in Portfile.in.
4190 - Incorporated changes from MacPorts repository (r28278).
4191 + FreeBSD port: Don't try to generate distinfo in Makefile.
4192 It can be made using 'make makesum' in FreeBSD.
4193 + Make both freebsd and macports targets depend on tarball.
4195 * Website and documentation:
4197 + Updated INSTALL instructions.
4198 + Added pandocwiki demo to website.
4199 + Removed local references to Portfile, since pandoc is now in the
4200 MacPorts repository.

4208 * Main.hs: Use utf8 conversion on the extra files loaded with
4209 the -H, -C, -B, and -A options. This fixes problems with unicode
4210 characters in these files.
4212 * Exposed Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML, since it is imported in
4213 Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML and without it we get a linking error when
4218 + Added new rule for enhanced markdown ordered lists: if the list
4219 marker is a capital letter followed by a period (including a
4220 single-letter capital roman numeral), then it must be followed by
4221 at least two spaces. The point of this is to avoid accidentally
4222 treating people's initials as list markers: a paragraph might begin,
4223 "B. Russell was an English philosopher," and this shouldn't be
4224 treated as a list. Documented change in README.
4225 + Blocks that start with "p. " and a digit are no longer treated
4226 as ordered lists (it's a page number).
4227 + Added a needed 'try' to listItem.
4228 + Removed check for a following setext header in endline.
4229 A full test is too inefficient (doubles benchmark time), and the
4230 substitute we had before is not 100% accurate.
4231 + Don't use Code elements for autolinks if --strict specified.
4233 * LaTeX writer: When a footnote ends with a Verbatim environment, the
4234 close } of the footnote cannot occur on the same line or an error occurs.
4235 Fixed this by adding a newline before the closing } of every footnote.
4238 + Removed incorrect "{}" around style information in HTML tables.
4239 Column widths now work properly in HTML.
4240 + If --strict option is specified (and --toc is not), don't include
4241 identifiers in headers, for better Markdown compatibility.
4245 + Separated $(web_dest) and website targets.
4246 + In website, index.txt is now constructed from template index.txt.in.
4247 + Added freebsd target to Markefile. This creates the freebsd Makefile
4248 from Makefile.in, and creates distinfo. Removed Makefile and distinfo
4249 from the repository.
4250 + Added macport target to Makefile. Portfile is built from template
4252 + Removed OSX package targets. (Too many difficulties involving
4253 dependencies on dynamic libraries.)
4254 + More complete INSTALL instructions for all architectures.
4257 + Added a programming demo, pandocwiki.

4270 + Skip material at end *only if* </html> is present (previously,
4271 only part of the document would be parsed if an error was
4272 found; now a proper error message is given).
4273 + Added new constant eitherBlockOrInline with elements that may
4274 count either as block-level or as inline. Modified isInline and
4275 isBlock to take this into account.
4276 + Modified rawHtmlBlock to accept any tag (even an inline tag):
4277 this is innocuous, because rawHtmlBlock is tried only if a regular
4278 inline element can't be parsed.
4279 + Added a necessary 'try' in definition of 'para'.
4281 * Fixed bug in markdown ordered list parsing. The problem was that
4282 anyOrderedListStart did not check for a space following the
4283 ordered list marker. So in 'A.B. 2007' the parser would be
4284 expecting a list item, but would not find one, causing an error.
4285 Fixed a similar bug in the RST reader. Resolves Issue #22.
4287 * Refactored RST and Markdown readers using parseFromString.
4289 * LaTeX reader will now skip anything after \end{document}.
4291 * Fixed blockquote output in markdown writer: previously, block
4292 quotes in indented contexts would be indented only in the first

4305 default, output files with extensions ".ctx" and ".context" are
4306 assumed to be ConTeXt, and output files with single-digit extensions
4307 are assumed to be man pages.
4309 * Enhanced ordered lists (documented in README, under Lists):
4310 + The OrderedList block element now stores information about
4311 list number style, list number delimiter, and starting number.
4312 + The readers parse this information when possible.
4313 + The writers use this information to style ordered lists.
4314 + The enhancement can be disabled using the --strict option.
4316 * Added support for tables (with a new Table block element). Two kinds
4317 of tables are supported: a simple table with one-line rows, and a
4318 more complex variety with multiline rows. All output formats are
4319 supported, but only markdown tables are parsed at the moment. The
4320 syntax is documented in README.
4322 * Added support for definition lists (with a new DefinitionList block
4323 element). All output and input formats are supported. The syntax is
4324 documented in README.

4327 and Subscript inline elements). All input and output
4328 formats. The syntax is documented in README.

4331 All input and output formats are supported. Thanks to Bradley Kuhn,
4332 who contributed a patch. The syntax is documented in README. Resolves

4336 generated table of contents (or an instruction that creates one) to
4337 be inserted at the beginning of the document. Not supported in S5,
4338 DocBook, or man page writers.
4340 * Modified the -m|--asciimathml option:

4343 instead of the contents of the ASCIIMathML.js script.

4349 * Removed Key and Note blocks from the Pandoc data structure. All
4350 links are now stored as explicit links, and note contents are
4351 stored with the (inline) notes.
4353 + All link Targets are now explicit (URL, title) pairs; there
4354 is no longer a 'Ref' target.
4355 + Markdown and RST parsers now need to extract data from key and
4356 note blocks and insert them into the relevant inline elements.
4357 Other parsers have been simplified, since there is no longer any need
4358 to construct separate key and note blocks.
4359 + Markdown, RST, and HTML writers need to construct lists of
4360 notes; Markdown and RST writers need to construct lists of link
4361 references (when the --reference-links option is specified); and
4362 the RST writer needs to construct a list of image substitution
4363 references. All writers have been rewritten to use the State monad
4364 when state is required.
4365 + Several functions (generateReference, keyTable,
4366 replaceReferenceLinks, replaceRefLinksBlockList, and some auxiliaries
4367 used by them) have been removed from Text.Pandoc.Shared, since
4368 they are no longer needed. New functions and data structures
4369 (Reference, isNoteBlock, isKeyBlock, isLineClump) have been
4370 added. The functions inTags, selfClosingTag, inTagsSimple, and
4371 inTagsIndented have been moved to the DocBook writer, since that
4372 is now the only module that uses them. NoteTable is now exported
4373 in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4374 + Added stateKeys and stateNotes to ParserState; removed stateKeyBlocks,
4375 stateKeysUsed, stateNoteBlocks, stateNoteIdentifiers, stateInlineLinks.
4376 + Added writerNotes and writerReferenceLinks to WriterOptions.
4378 * Added Text.Pandoc module that exports basic readers, writers,
4379 definitions, and utility functions. This should export everything
4380 needed for most uses of Pandoc libraries. The haddock documentation
4381 includes a short example program.
4383 * Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML is no longer an exported module.
4385 * Added Text.Pandoc.Blocks module to help in printing markdown
4386 and RST tables. This module provides functions for working with
4387 fixed-width blocks of text--e.g., placing them side by side, as
4390 * Refactored to avoid reliance on Haskell's Text.Regex library, which
4391 (a) is slow, and (b) does not properly handle unicode. This fixed
4392 some strange bugs, e.g. in parsing S-cedilla, and improved performance.
4394 + Replaced 'gsub' with a general list function 'substitute'
4395 that does not rely on Text.Regex.
4396 + Rewrote extractTagType in HTML reader so that it doesn't use
4398 + In Markdown reader, replaced email regex test with a custom email
4399 autolink parser (autoLinkEmail). Also replaced selfClosingTag regex
4400 with a custom function isSelfClosingTag.
4401 + Modified Docbook writer so that it doesn't rely on Text.Regex for
4402 detecting 'mailto' links.
4403 + Removed escapePreservingRegex and reamped entity-handling
4404 functions in Text.Pandoc.Shared and Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences to
4405 avoid reliance on Text.Regex (see below on character reference
4408 * Renamed Text.Pandoc.Entities as Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.
4410 * Changed handling of XML entities. Entities are now parsed (and unicode
4411 characters returned) in the Markdown and HTML readers, rather than being
4412 handled in the writers. In HTML and Docbook writers, UTF-8 is now used
4413 instead of entities for characters above 128. This makes the HTML and
4414 DocBook output much more readable and more easily editable.
4416 + Removed sgmlHexEntity, sgmlDecimalEntity, sgmlNamedEntity, and
4417 sgmlCharacterEntity regexes from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4418 + Renamed escapeSGMLChar to escapeCharForXML. Added escapeStringForXML.
4419 Moved both functions to Text.Pandoc.Writers.Docbook.
4420 + Added characterReference parser to Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.
4421 This parses a string and return a unicode character.
4422 + Rewrote decodeCharacterReferences to use the new parser instead of
4424 + Added new charRef parser for Markdown and HTML, which replaces the
4425 old 'entity' parser. Added '&' as a special character in Markdown reader.
4426 + Modified HTML and Markdown readers to call decodeEntities on all raw
4427 strings (e.g. authors, dates, link titles), to ensure that no
4428 unprocessed entities are included in the native representation of
4429 the document. (In the HTML reader, most of this work is done by a
4430 change in extractAttributeName.)
4431 + In XML and Markdown output, escape unicode nonbreaking space as ' ',
4432 since a unicode non-breaking space is impossible to distinguish visually
4433 from a regular space. (Resolves Issue #3.)
4434 + Removed encodeEntitiesNumerical.
4435 + Use Data.Map for entityTable and (new) reverseEntityTable, for a
4436 slight performance boost over the old association list.
4437 + Removed unneeded decodeEntities from 'str' parser in HTML and
4440 * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: Renamed encodeUTF8 to toUTF8, decodeUTF8 to
4441 fromUTF8, for clarity.
4443 * Replaced old haskell98 module names replaced by hierarchical module
4444 names, e.g. List by Data.List. Removed haskell98 from dependencies
4445 in pandoc.cabal, and added mtl (needed for state monad). Substituted
4448 * Refactored and cleaned up character escaping in writers, using
4449 backslashEscapes and escapeStringUsing functions.
4451 * Instead of adding "\n\n" to the end of an input string in Main.hs,
4452 this is now done in the readers. This makes the libraries behave
4453 the way you'd expect from the pandoc program. Resolves Issue #10.
4455 * URLs and email addresses in autolinks are now typeset as Code.
4457 * In Main.hs, changed putStr to putStrLn -- mainly because MacOS X
4458 doesn't display the whole output unless there's a line ending.
4460 * Major code cleanup in all modules, for greater consistency, concision,
4465 + Fixed several bugs (extractTagType, attribute parsing).
4466 + Remove Null blocks in lists of blocks when possible.
4467 + Allow HTML comments as raw HTML inline.
4471 + Ordered list items may no longer begin with uppercase letters, or
4472 letters greater than 'n'. (This prevents first initials and page
4473 reference, e.g. 'p. 400', from being parsed as beginning lists.)
4474 Also, numbers beginning list items may no longer end with ')',
4475 which is now allowed only after letters. Note: These changes
4476 may cause documents to be parsed differently. Users should take
4478 + Changed autoLink parsing to conform better to Markdown.pl's
4479 behavior. <google.com> is not treated as a link, but
4480 <http://google.com>, <ftp://google.com>, and <mailto:google@google.com>
4482 + Cleaned up handling of embedded quotes in link titles. Now these are
4483 stored as a '"' character, not as '"'.
4484 + Use lookAhead parser for the 'first pass' (looking for reference keys),
4485 instead of parsing normally, then using setInput to reset input. This
4486 yields a slight performance boost.
4487 + Fixed several bugs in smart quote recognition.
4488 + Fixed bug in indentSpaces (which didn't properly handle
4489 cases with mixed spaces and tabs).
4490 + Consolidated 'text', 'special', and 'inline' into 'inline'.
4491 + Fixed bug which allowed URL and title to be separated by multiple blank
4492 lines in links and reference keys. They can be on separate lines but
4493 can't have blank lines between them.
4494 + Correctly handle bracketed text inside inline footnotes and links,using
4495 new function inlinesInBalanced. Resolves Issue #14.
4496 + Fixed bug in footnotes: links in footnotes were not being
4497 processed. Solution: three-stage parse. First, get all the
4498 reference keys and add information to state. Next, get all the
4499 notes and add information to state. (Reference keys may be needed
4500 at this stage.) Finally, parse everything else.
4501 + Replaced named constants like 'emphStart' with literals.
4502 + Removed an extra occurance of escapedChar in definition of inline.
4506 + Allow the URI in a RST hyperlink target to start on the line
4507 after the reference key.
4508 + Added 'try' in front of 'string', where needed, or used a different
4509 parser. This fixes a bug where ````` would not be correctly parsed as
4511 + Fixed slow performance in parsing inline literals in RST reader. The
4512 problem was that ``#`` was seen by 'inline' as a potential link or image.
4513 Fix: inserted 'notFollowedBy (char '`')' in link parsers.
4515 + Use lookAhead instead of getInput/setInput in RST reader. Removed
4516 unneeded getState call, since lookAhead automatically saves and
4517 restores the parser state.
4518 + Allow hyperlink target URIs to be split over multiple lines, and
4519 to start on the line after the reference. Resolves Issue #7.
4520 + Fixed handling of autolinks.
4524 + Replaced 'choice [(try (string ...), ...]' idiom with 'oneOfStrings',
4526 + Added clauses for tilde and caret. Tilde is \ensuremath{\sim}, and
4527 caret is \^{}, not \^ as before.
4528 + Added parsing for \url.
4529 + Parse \texttt{} as code, provided there's nothing fancy inside.
4533 + Modified HTML writer to use the Text.XHtml library. This results
4534 in cleaner, faster code, and it makes it easier to use Pandoc in
4535 other projects, like wikis, which use Text.XHtml. Two functions are
4536 now provided, writeHtml and writeHtmlString: the former outputs an
4537 Html structure, the latter a rendered string. The S5 writer is also
4538 changed, in parallel ways (writeS5, writeS5String).
4539 + The Html header is now written programmatically, so it has been
4540 removed from the 'headers' directory. The S5 header is still
4541 needed, but the doctype and some of the meta declarations have
4542 been removed, since they are written programatically. This change
4543 introduces a new dependency on the xhtml package.
4544 + Fixed two bugs in email obfuscation involving improper escaping
4545 of '&' in the <noscript> section and in --strict mode. Resolves
4547 + Fixed another bug in email obfuscation: If the text to be obfuscated
4548 contains an entity, this needs to be decoded before obfuscation.
4549 Thanks to thsutton for the patch. Resolves Issue #15.
4550 + Changed the way the backlink is displayed in HTML footnotes.
4551 Instead of appearing on a line by itself, it now generally
4552 appears on the last line of the note. (Exception: when the
4553 note does not end with a Plain or Para block.) This saves space
4555 + Added automatic unique identifiers to headers:
4556 - The identifier is derived from the header via a scheme
4557 documented in README.
4558 - WriterState now includes a list of header identifiers and a table
4559 of contents in addition to notes.
4560 - The function uniqueIdentifiers creates a list of unique identifiers
4561 from a list of inline lists (e.g. headers).
4562 - This list is part of WriterState and gets consumed by blockToHtml
4563 each time a header is encountered.
4564 + Include CSS for .strikethrough class in header only if strikethrough
4565 text appears in the document.
4566 + If the 'strict' option is specified, elements that do not appear in
4567 standard markdown (like definition lists) are passed through as
4569 + Simplified treatment of autolinks, using pattern matching instead of
4574 + Links in markdown output are now printed as inline links by default,
4575 rather than reference links. A --reference-links option has been added
4576 that forces links to be printed as reference links. Resolves Issue #4.
4577 + Use autolinks when possible. Instead of [site.com](site.com),
4582 + Rewrote to use the State monad. The preamble now includes only those
4583 packages that are actually required, given the document's content.
4584 Thus, for example, if strikeout is not used, ulem is not required.
4585 Modified LaTeXHeader accordingly.
4586 + Modified LaTeX writer to insert '\,' between consecutive quotes.
4587 + Removed unused function tableRowColumnWidths.
4588 + Simplified code for escaping special characters.
4589 + Leave extra blank line after \maketitle.
4590 + Include empty '\author{}' when no author specified to avoid LaTeX
4592 + Include fancyvrb code in header only if needed -- that is, only
4593 if there is actually code in a footnote.
4594 + Use \url{} for autolinks.
4595 + Include [mathletters] option in ucs package, so that basic unicode
4596 Greek letters will work correctly.
4598 * RST writer: Force blank line before lists, so that sublists will
4599 be handled correctly.
4601 * Docbook writer: Fixed a bug: email links with text, like
4602 [foo](me@bar.baz), were being incorrectly treated as autolinks.
4604 * Removed Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc and moved all its functions to
4607 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
4609 + Added defaultWriterOptions.
4610 + Added writerTableOfContents to WriterOptions.
4611 + Added writerIgnoreNotes option to WriterOptions. This is needed
4612 for processing header blocks for a table of contents, since notes on
4613 headers should not appear in the TOC.
4614 + Added prettyprinting for native Table format.
4615 + Removed some unneeded imports.
4616 + Moved escape and nullBlock parsers from
4617 Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc, since the latter is for
4618 general-purpose parsers that don't depend on Text.Pandoc.Definition.
4619 + Moved isHeaderBlock from Text.Pandoc.Writers.HTML.
4620 + Moved Element, headerAtLeast, and hierarchicalize from Docbook
4621 writer, because HTML writer now uses these in constructing a table
4623 + Added clauses for new inline elements (Strikeout, Superscript,
4624 Subscript) to refsMatch.
4625 + Removed backslashEscape; added new functions escapeStringUsing and
4627 + Moved failIfStrict from markdown reader, since it is now used also
4629 + Added a 'try' to the definition of indentSpaces.
4630 + In definition of 'reference', added check to make sure it's not a note
4632 + Added functions: camelCaseToHyphenated, toRomanNumeral,
4633 anyOrderedListMarker, orderedListmarker, orderedListMarkers,
4634 charsInBalanced', withHorizDisplacement, romanNumeral
4635 + Fixed a bug in the anyLine parser. Previously it would parse an empty
4636 string "", but it should fail on an empty string, or we get an error
4637 when it is used inside "many" combinators.
4638 + Removed followedBy' parser, replacing it with the lookAhead parser from
4640 + Added some needed 'try's before multicharacter parsers, especially in
4642 + Removed the 'try' from the 'end' parser in 'enclosed', so that
4643 'enclosed' behaves like 'option', 'manyTill', etc.
4644 + Added lineClump parser, which parses a raw line block up to and
4645 including any following blank lines.
4646 + Renamed parseFromStr to parseFromString.
4647 + Added a 'try' to the 'end' parser in 'enclosed'. This makes errors in
4648 the use of 'enclosed' less likely. Removed some now-unnecessary 'try's
4650 + Removed unneeded 'try' in blanklines.
4651 + Removed endsWith function and rewrote calling functions to use
4653 + Added >>~ combinator.
4654 + Fixed bug in normalizeSpaces: Space:Str "":Space should compress to
4657 * Refactored runtests.pl; added separate tests for tables.
4661 + Added -asxhtml flag to tidy in html2markdown. This will
4662 perhaps help the parser, which expects closing tags.
4663 + Modified markdown2pdf to run pdflatex a second time if --toc or
4664 --table-of-contents was specified; otherwise the table of
4665 contents won't appear.
4666 + Modified markdown2pdf to print a helpful message if the 'ulem'
4667 LaTeX package is required and not found.
4669 * Changes to build process:
4671 + Dropped support for compilation with GHC 6.4. GHC 6.6 or higher
4673 + Removed cabalize and Pandoc.cabal.in. The repository now contains
4674 pandoc.cabal itself.
4675 + Pandoc.cabal has been changed to pandoc.cabal, because HackageDB
4676 likes the cabal file to have the same name as the tarball.
4677 + Expanded and revised the package description in pandoc.cabal.
4678 Revised the package synopsis.
4679 + The tarball built by 'make tarball' now contains files built from
4680 templates (including man pages and shell scripts), so pandoc can
4681 be built directly using Cabal tools, without preprocessing.
4682 + Executable binaries are now stripped before installing.
4683 + Man pages are now generated from markdown sources, using pandoc's
4685 + Use HTML version of README (instead of RTF) in Mac OS X installer.
4686 + Instead of testing for the existence of a pandoc symlink in build-exec,
4691 + Updated README and man pages with information on new features.
4692 + Updated INSTALL instructions with some useful clarifications and
4694 + Updated web content.
4696 * Added FreeBSD port.
4702 + Changed pandoc's Build-Depends to include libghc6-mtl-dev and
4703 libghc6-xhtml-dev. Removed libghc6-html-dev.
4704 + Suggest texlive-latex-recommended | tetex-extra instead of
4705 tetex-bin. This brings in fancyvrb and unicode support.

4709pandoc (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
4713 * Changes in pandoc options:
4715 + Allow options to follow or precede arguments.
4716 + Changed '--smartypants' to '--smart' and adjusted symbols accordingly.
4717 + Added '--strict' option.
4718 + Added '-o/--output' option.
4719 + Added '--dump-args' and '--ignore-args' options (for use in wrappers).
4720 + Modified '-v' and '-h' output to go to STDERR, not STDOUT, and return
4721 error conditions. This is helpful for writing wrappers.
4722 + Added copyright message to '-v' output, modeled after FSF messages.
4723 + Reformatted usage message so that it doesn't wrap illegibly.
4724 + Removed extra blanks after '-h' and '-D' output.
4726 * Added docbook writer.
4728 * Added implicit setting of default input and output format based
4729 on input and output filename extensions. These defaults are
4730 overridden if explicit input and output formats are specified using
4731 '-t', '-f', '-r', or '-w' options. Documented in pandoc(1) man page
4734 * Allow ordered list items to begin with (single) letters, as well
4735 as numbers. The list item marker may now be terminated either by
4736 '.' or by ')'. This extension to standard markdown is documented
4739 * Revised footnote syntax. (See README for full details.) The
4740 '[^1]' format now standard in markdown extensions is supported,
4741 as are inline footnotes with this syntax: '^[My note.]'.
4742 The earlier footnote syntax '^(1)' is no longer supported.
4744 * Improved HTML representation of footnotes. All footnotes
4745 are now auto-numbered and appear in an ordered list at the
4746 end of the HTML document. Since the default appearance is now
4747 acceptable, the old footnote styles have been removed from the
4752 + Fixed a serious bug in the markdown, LaTeX, and RST readers.
4753 These readers ran 'runParser' on processed chunks of text to handle
4754 embedded block lists in lists and quotation blocks. But then
4755 any changes made to the parser state in these chunks was lost,
4756 as the state is local to the parser. So, for example, footnotes
4757 didn't work in quotes or list items. The fix: instead of calling
4758 runParser on some raw text, use setInput to make it the input, then
4759 parse it, then use setInput to restore the input to what it was
4760 before. This is shorter and more elegant, and it fixes the problem.
4761 + Fixed bug in notFollowedBy' combinator (adding 'try' before
4762 'parser'). Adjusted code that uses this combinator accordingly.
4763 + Fixed bug in RTF writer that caused improper indentation on
4764 footnotes occurring in indented blocks like lists.
4765 + Fixed parsing of metadata in LaTeX reader. Now the title, author,
4766 and date are parsed correctly. Everything else in the preamble
4768 + Modified escapedChar in LaTeX reader to allow a '\' at the end of a
4769 line to count as escaped whitespace.
4770 + Modified LaTeX reader to produce inline links rather than reference
4771 links. Otherwise, links in footnotes aren't handled properly.
4772 + Fixed handling of titles in links in Markdown reader, so that
4773 embedded quotation marks are now handled properly.
4774 + Fixed Markdown reader's handling of embedded brackets in links.
4775 + Fixed Markdown reader so that it only parses bracketed material
4776 as a reference link if there is actually a corresponding key.
4777 + Revised inline code parsing in Markdown reader to conform to
4778 markdown standard. Now any number of `s can begin inline code,
4779 which will end with the same number of `s. For example, to
4780 have two backticks as code, write ``` `` ```. Modified Markdown
4782 + Fixed bug in text-wrapping routine in Markdown and RST writers.
4783 Now LineBreaks no longer cause wrapping problems.
4784 + Supported hexadecimal numerical entity references as well as
4786 + Fixed bug in Markdown reader's handling of underscores and other
4787 inline formatting markers inside reference labels: for example,
4788 in '[A_B]: /url/a_b', the material between underscores was being
4789 parsed as emphasized inlines.
4790 + Changed Markdown reader's handling of backslash escapes so that
4791 only non-alphanumeric characters can be escaped. Strict mode
4792 follows Markdown.pl in only allowing a select group of punctuation
4793 characters to be escaped.
4794 + Modified HTML reader to skip a newline following a <br> tag.
4795 Otherwise the newline will be treated as a space at the beginning
4798 * Made handling of code blocks more consistent. Previously, some
4799 readers allowed trailing newlines, while others stripped them.
4800 Now, all readers strip trailing newlines in code blocks. Writers
4801 insert a newline at the end of code blocks as needed.
4803 * Modified readers to make spacing at the end of output more consistent.
4805 * Minor improvements to LaTeX reader:
4807 + '\thanks' now treated like a footnote.
4808 + Simplified parsing of LaTeX command arguments and options.
4809 commandArgs now returns a list of arguments OR options (in
4810 whatever order they appear). The brackets are included, and
4811 a new stripFirstAndLast function is provided to strip them off
4812 when needed. This fixes a problem in dealing with \newcommand
4813 and \newenvironment.
4815 * Revised RTF writer:
4817 + Default font is now Helvetica.
4818 + An '\f0' is added to each '\pard', so that font resizing works
4821 * Moved handling of "smart typography" from the writers to the Markdown
4822 and LaTeX readers. This allows great simplification of the writers
4823 and more accurate smart quotes, dashes, and ellipses. DocBook can
4824 now use '<quote>'. The '--smart' option now toggles an option in
4825 the parser state rather than a writer option. Several new kinds
4826 of inline elements have been added: Quoted, Ellipses, Apostrophe,
4829 * Changes in HTML writer:
4831 + Include title block in header even when title is null.
4832 + Made javascript obfuscation of emails even more obfuscatory,
4833 by combining it with entity obfuscation.
4835 * Changed default ASCIIMathML text color to black.
4839 + Added --strip-trailing-cr option to diff in runtests.pl, for
4840 compatibility with Windows.
4841 + Added regression tests with footnotes in quote blocks and lists.
4845 + osx-pkg target creates a Mac OS X package (directory). New osx
4846 directory contains files needed for construction of the package.
4847 + osx-dmg target creates a compressed disk image containing the package.
4848 + win-pkg target creates Windows binary package.
4849 + tarball target creates distribution source tarball.
4850 + website target generates pandoc's website automatically, including
4851 demos. New 'web' directory containts files needed for construction
4852 of the website (which will be created as the 'pandoc' subdirectory
4854 + Makefile checks to see if we're running Windows/Cygwin; if so,
4855 a '.exe' extension is added to each executable in EXECS.
4857 * Removed all wrappers except markdown2pdf and html2markdown.
4859 * Added new wrapper hsmarkdown, to be used as a drop-in replacement
4860 for Markdown.pl. hsmarkdown calls pandoc with the '--strict'
4861 option and disables other options.
4863 * Added code to html2markdown that tries to determine the character
4864 encoding of an HTML file, by parsing the "Content-type" meta tag.
4866 + If the encoding can't be determined, then if the content is local,
4867 the local encoding is used; if it comes from a URL, UTF-8 is used
4869 + If input is from STDIN, don't try to determine character encoding.
4870 + Encoding can be specified explicitly using '-e' option.
4872 * Improved warning messages in wrappers:
4874 + Print warning if iconv not available
4875 + More user-friendly error messages in markdown2pdf, when
4880 + Renamed 'Text/Pandoc/HtmlEntities' module to
4881 'Text/Pandoc/Entities'. Also changed function names so as
4882 not to be HTML-specific.
4883 + Refactored SGML string escaping functions from HTML and Docbook
4884 writers into Text/Pandoc/Shared. (escapeSGML, stringToSGML)
4885 + Removed 'BlockQuoteContext' from ParserContext, as it isn't
4887 + Removed splitBySpace and replaced it with a general, polymorphic
4889 + Refactored LaTeX reader for clarity (added isArg function).
4890 + Converted some CR's to LF's in src/ui/default/print.css.
4891 + Added license text to top of source files.
4892 + Added module data for haddock to source files.
4893 + Reformatted code for consistency.
4895 * Rewrote documentation and man pages. Split README into INSTALL
4898 * Split LICENSE into COPYING and COPYRIGHT.
4900 * Removed TODO, since we now maintain ToDo on the wiki.
4902 * Made COPYRIGHT in top level a symlink to debian/copyright, to avoid
4907 * Revamped build process to conform to debian standards and created
4908 a proper debian package. Closes: #391666.
4910 * Modified build process to support GHC 6.6.
4912 + The package can still be compiled using GHC 6.4.2, though because
4913 of dependencies the "make deb" target works only with GHC 6.6+.
4914 + The script 'cabalize' is used to create an appropriate
4915 'Pandoc.cabal' from 'Pandoc.cabal.in', depending on the GHC and
4918 * Refactored template processing (fillTemplates.pl).
4920 * Modified wrapper scripts to make them more robust and portable.
4921 To avoid code duplication and ensure consistency, wrappers are
4922 generated via a templating system from templates in src/wrappers.
4924 + Wrappers now accept multiple filenames, when appropriate.
4925 + Spaces and tabs allowed in filenames.
4926 + getopts shell builtin is used for portable option parsing.
4927 + Improved html2markdown's web grabber code, making it more robust,
4928 configurable and verbose. Added '-e', '-g' options.
