3 * Markdown reader: various optimizations, leading to a
4 significant performance boost.
6 * RST reader: Allow anonymous form of inline links:
7 `` `hello <url>`__ `` Closes #724.
9 * Mediawiki reader: Don't require newlines after tables.
10 Thanks to jrunningen for the patch. Closes #733.
12 * Fixed LaTeX macro parsing. Now LaTeX macro definitions are preserved
13 when output is LaTeX, and applied when it is another format.
14 Partially addresses #730.
16 * Markdown and RST readers: Added parser to `block` that skips blank
17 lines. This fixes a subtle regression involving grid tables with
18 empty cells. Also added test for grid table with empty cells.
21 * RST writer: Use `.. code:: language` for code blocks with language.
24 * DocBook writer: Fixed output for hard line breaks, adding a newline
25 between `<literallayout>` tags.
27 * Markdown writer: Use an autolink when link text matches url.
28 Previously we also checked for a null title, but this
29 test fails for links produced by citeproc-hs in bibliographies.
30 So, if the link has a title, it will be lost on conversion
31 to an autolink, but that seems okay.
33 * Markdown writer: Set title, author, date variables as before.
34 These are no longer used in the default template, since we use
35 titleblock, but we set them anyway for those who use custom templates.
37 * LaTeX writer: Avoid extra space at start/end of table cell.
38 Thanks to Nick Bart for the suggestion of using @{}.
40 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
42 + More efficient version of `anyLine`.
43 + Type of `macro` has changed; the parser now returns `Blocks`
46 * Relaxed old-time version bound, allowing 1.0.*.
48 * Removed obsolete `hsmarkdown` script. Those who need `hsmarkdown`
49 should create a symlink as described in the README.
53 * Markdown reader: Try `lhsCodeBlock` before `rawTeXBlock`. Otherwise
54 `\begin{code}...\end{code}` isn't handled properly in markdown+lhs.
55 Thanks to Daniel Miot for noticing the bug and suggesting the fix.
57 * Markdown reader: Fixed bug with headerless grid tables.
58 The 1.10 code assumed that each table header cell contains exactly one
59 block. That failed for headerless tables (0) and also for tables with
60 multiple blocks in a header cell. The code is fixed and tests provided.
61 Thanks to Andrew Lee for pointing out the bug.
63 * Markdown reader: Fixed regressions in fenced code blocks. Closes #722.
65 + Tilde code fences can again take a bare language string
66 (`~~~ haskell`), not just curly-bracketed attributes
68 + Backtick code blocks can take the curly-bracketed attributes.
69 + Backtick code blocks don't *require* a language.
70 + Consolidated code for the two kinds of fenced code blocks.
72 * LaTeX template: Use `\urlstyle{same}` to avoid monospace URLs.
74 * Markdown writer: Use proportional font for email autolinks with
75 obfuscation. Closes #714.
77 * Corrected name of `blank_before_blockquote` in README. Closes #718.
79 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`: Fixed bug in `uri` parser.
80 The bug prevented an autolink at the end of a string (e.g.
81 at the end of a line block line) from counting as a link. Closes #711.
83 * Use the `hsb2hs` preprocessor instead of TH for embed_data_files.
84 This should work on Windows, unlike the TH solution with
87 * Eliminated use of TH in test suite.
89 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Data` (non-exported) to hold the association
90 list of embedded data files, if the `embed_data_files` flag is selected.
91 This isolates the code that needs special treatment with file-embed or
94 * Changes to `make-windows-installer.bat`.
96 + Exit batch file if any of the cabal-dev installs fail.
97 + There's no longer any need to reinstall `highlighting-kate`.
98 + Don't start with a `cabal update`; leave that to the user.
99 + Force reinstall of pandoc.
101 * Fixed EPUB writer so it builds with blaze-html 0.4.x. Thanks to
106 * Fixed bug with escaped % in LaTeX reader. Closes #710.
110 * Added further missing fb2 tests to cabal file.
114 * Added fb2 tests to cabal file's extra-source-files.
118 * Bump version bounds on test-framework packages.
124 * New input formats: `mediawiki` (MediaWiki markup).
126 * New output formats: `epub3` (EPUB v3 with MathML),
127 `fb2` (FictionBook2 ebooks).
129 * New `--toc-depth` option, specifying how many levels of
130 headers to include in a table of contents.
132 * New `--epub-chapter-level` option, specifying the header
133 level at which to divide EPUBs into separate files.
134 Note that this normally affects only performance, not the
135 visual presentation of the EPUB in a reader.
137 * Removed the `--strict` option. Instead of using `--strict`,
138 one can now use the format name `markdown_strict` for either input
139 or output. This gives more fine-grained control that `--strict`
140 did, allowing one to convert from pandoc's markdown to strict
141 markdown or vice versa.
143 * It is now possible to enable or disable specific syntax
144 extensions by appending them (with `+` or `-`) to the writer
145 or reader name. For example,
147 pandoc -f markdown-footnotes+hard_line_breaks
149 disables footnotes and enables treating newlines as hard
150 line breaks. The literate Haskell extensions are now implemented
151 this way as well, using either `+lhs` or `+literate_haskell`.
152 For a list of extension names, see the README under
155 * The following aliases have been introduced for specific
156 combinations of markdown extensions: `markdown_phpextra`,
157 `markdown_github`, `markdown_mmd`, `markdown_strict`. These aliases
158 work just like regular reader and writer names, and can be modified
159 with extension modifiers as described above. (Note that conversion
160 from one markdown dialect to another does not work perfectly,
161 because there are differences in markdown parsers besides
162 just the extensions, and because pandoc's internal document model is
163 not rich enough to capture all of the extensions.)
165 * New `--html-q-tags` option. The previous default was to use `<q>`
166 tags for smart quotes in HTML5. But `<q>` tags are also valid HTML4.
167 Moreover, they are not a robust way of typesetting quotes, since
168 some user agents don't support them, and some CSS resets (e.g.
169 bootstrap) prevent pandoc's quotes CSS from working properly.
170 We now just insert literal quote characters by default in both
171 `html` and `html5` output, but this option is provided for
172 those who still want `<q>` tags.
174 * The markdown reader now prints warnings (to stderr) about
175 duplicate link and note references. Closes #375.
177 * Markdown syntax extensions:
179 + Added pipe tables. Thanks to François Gannaz for the initial patch.
180 These conform to PHP Markdown Extra's pipe table syntax. A subset
181 of org-mode table syntax is also supported, which means that you can
182 use org-mode's nice table editor to create tables.
184 + Added support for RST-style line blocks. These are
185 useful for verse and addresses.
187 + Attributes can now be specified for headers, using the same
188 syntax as in code blocks. (However, currently only the
189 identifier has any effect in most writers.) For example,
193 See [the header above](#foo).
195 + Pandoc will now act as if link references have been defined
196 for all headers without explicit identifiers.
202 Another link to [it][My header].
208 + Command macros now work everywhere, including non-math.
209 Environment macros still not supported.
210 + `\input` now works, as well as `\include`. TEXINPUTS is used.
211 Pandoc looks recursively into included files for more included files.
215 * The Markdown reader no longer puts the text of autolinks in a
216 `Code` inline. This means that autolinks will no longer appear
219 * The character `/` can now appear in markdown citation keys.
221 * HTML blocks in strict_markdown are no longer required to begin
222 at the left margin. Technically this is required, according to
223 the markdown syntax document, but `Markdown.pl` and other markdown
224 processors are more liberal.
226 * The `-V` option has been changed so that if there are duplicate
227 variables, those specified later on the command line take precedence.
229 * Tight lists now work in LaTeX and ConTeXt output.
231 * The LaTeX writer no longer relien on the `enumerate` package.
232 Instead, it uses standard LaTeX commands to change the list numbering
235 * The LaTeX writer now uses `longtable` instead of `ctable`. This allows
236 tables to be split over page boundaries.
238 * The RST writer now uses a line block to render paragraphs containing
239 linebreaks (which previously weren't supported at all).
241 * The markdown writer now applies the `--id-prefix` to footnote IDs.
244 * The plain writer no longer uses backslash-escaped line breaks
245 (which are not very "plain").
247 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Better error message for invalid UTF8.
248 Read bytestring and use `Text`'s decodeUtf8 instead of using
249 `System.IO.hGetContents`. This way you get a message saying
250 "invalid UTF-8 stream" instead of "invalid byte sequence."
251 You are also told which byte caused the problem.
253 * Docx, ODT, and EPUB writers now download images specified by a URL
254 instead of skipping them or raising an error.
258 + The default CSS now left-aligns headers by default, instead of
259 centering. This is more consistent with the rest of the writers.
260 + A proper multi-level table of contents is now used in `toc.ncx`.
261 There is no longer a subsidiary table of contents at the beginning
263 + Code highlighting now works by default.
264 + Section divs are used by default for better semantic markup.
265 + The title is used instead of "Title Page" in the table of contents.
266 Otherwise we have a hard-coded English string, which looks
267 strange in ebooks written in other languages. Closes #572.
271 + Put mathjax in span with class "math". Closes #562.
272 + Put citations in a span with class "citation." In HTML5, also include
273 a `data-cite` attribute with a space-separated list of citation
276 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: use universalNewlineMode in reading.
277 This treats both `\r\n` and `\n` as `\n` on input, no matter
278 what platform we're running on.
280 * Citation processing is now done in the Markdown and LaTeX
281 readers, not in `pandoc.hs`. This makes it easier for library users
286 * HTML: Added css to template to preserve spaces in `<code>` tags.
287 Thanks to Dirk Laurie.
289 * Beamer: Remove English-centric strings in section pages.
290 Section pages used to have "Section" and a number as well as the
291 section title. Now they just have the title. Similarly for part
292 and subsection. Closes #566.
294 * LaTeX, ConTeXt: Added papersize variable.
296 * LaTeX, Beamer templates: Use longtable instead of ctable.
298 * LaTeX, Beamer templates: Don't require 'float' package for tables.
299 We don't actually seem to use the '[H]' option.
301 * LaTeX: Use `upquote` package if it is available. This fixes
302 straight quotes in verbatim environments.
304 * Markdown, plain: Fixed titleblock so it is just a single string.
305 Previously separate title, author, and date variables were used,
306 but this didn't allow different kinds of title blocks.
310 + Rationalized templates. Previously there were three different
311 templates involved in epub production. There is now just one
312 template, `default.epub` or `default.epub3`. It can now be
313 overridden using `--template`, just like other templates.
314 The titlepage is now folded into the default template.
315 A `titlepage` variable selects it.
316 + UTF-8, lang tag, meta tags, title element.
318 * Added scale-to-width feature to beamer template
322 * `Text.Pandoc.Definition`: Added `Attr` field to `Header`.
323 Previously header identifers were autogenerated by the writers.
324 Now they are added in the readers (either automatically or explicitly).
326 * `Text.Pandoc.Builder`:
328 + `Inlines` and `Blocks` are now synonyms for `Many Inline` and
329 `Many Block`. `Many` is a newtype wrapper around `Seq`, with
330 custom Monoid instances for `Many Inline` and `Many Block. This
331 allows `Many` to be made an instance of `Foldable` and `Traversable`.
332 + The old `Listable` class has been removed.
333 + The module now exports `isNull`, `toList`, `fromList`.
334 + The old `Read` and `Show` instances have been removed; derived
335 instances are now used.
336 + Added `headerWith`.
338 * The readers now take a `ReaderOptions` rather than a `ParserState`
339 as a parameter. Indeed, not all parsers use the `ParserState` type;
340 some have a custom state. The motivation for this change was to separate
341 user-specifiable options from the accounting functions of parser state.
343 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Options`. This includes the `WriterOptions`
344 formerly in `Text.Pandoc.Shared`, and its associated
345 data types. It also includes a new type `ReaderOptions`, which
346 contains many options formerly in `ParserState`, and its associated
349 + `ParserState.stateParseRaw` -> `ReaderOptions.readerParseRaw`.
350 + `ParserState.stateColumns` -> `ReaderOptions.readerColumns`.
351 + `ParserState.stateTabStop` -> `ReaderOptions.readerTabStop`.
352 + `ParserState.stateOldDashes` -> `ReaderOptions.readerOldDashes`.
353 + `ParserState.stateLiterateHaskell` -> `ReaderOptions.readerLiterateHaskell`.
354 + `ParserState.stateCitations` -> `ReaderOptions.readerReferences`.
355 + `ParserState.stateApplyMacros` -> `ReaderOptions.readerApplyMacros`.
356 + `ParserState.stateIndentedCodeClasses` ->
357 `ReaderOptions.readerIndentedCodeClasses`.
358 + Added `ReaderOptions.readerCitationStyle`.
360 * `WriterOptions` now includes `writerEpubVersion`, `writerEpubChapterLevel`,
361 `writerEpubStylesheet`, `writerEpubFonts`, `writerReferenceODT`,
362 `writerReferenceDocx`, and `writerTOCDepth`. `writerEPUBMetadata` has
363 been renamed `writerEpubMetadata` for consistency.
365 * Changed signatures of `writeODT`, `writeDocx`, `writeEPUB`, since they no
366 longer stylesheet, fonts, reference files as separate parameters.
368 * Removed `writerLiterateHaskell` from `WriterOptions`, and
369 `readerLiterateHaskell` from `ReaderOptions`. LHS is now handled
370 by an extension (`Ext_literate_haskell`).
372 * Removed deprecated `writerXeTeX`.
374 * Removed `writerStrict` from `WriterOptions`. Added `writerExtensions`.
375 Strict is now handled through extensions.
377 * `Text.Pandoc.Options` exports `pandocExtensions`, `strictExtensions`,
378 `phpMarkdownExtraExtensions`, `githubMarkdownExtensions`,
379 and `multimarkdownExtensions`, as well as the `Extensions` type.
381 * New `Text.Pandoc.Readers.MediaWiki` module, exporting
384 * New `Text.Pandoc.Writers.FB2` module, exporting `writeFB2`
385 (thanks to Sergey Astanin).
389 + Added `getReader`, `getWriter` to `Text.Pandoc`.
390 + `writers` is now an association list `(String, Writer)`.
391 A `Writer` can be a `PureStringWriter`, an `IOStringWriter`, or
392 an `IOByteStringWriter`. ALL writers are now in the 'writers'
393 list, including the binary writers and FB2 writer. This allows
394 code in `pandoc.hs` to be simplified.
395 + Changed type of `readers`, so all readers are in IO.
396 Users who want pure readers can still get them form the reader
397 modules; this just affects the function `getReader` that looks up
398 a reader based on the format name. The point of this change is to
399 make it possible to print warnings from the parser.
401 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
403 + `Text.Parsec` now exports all Parsec functions used in pandoc code.
404 No other module directly imports Parsec. This will make it easier
405 to change the parsing backend in the future, if we want to.
406 + `Text.Parsec` is used instead of `Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec`.
407 + Export the type synonym `Parser`.
408 + Export `widthsFromIndices`, `NoteTable'`, `KeyTable'`, `Key'`, `toKey'`,
409 `withQuoteContext`, `singleQuoteStart`, `singleQuoteEnd`,
410 `doubleQuoteStart`, `doubleQuoteEnd`, `ellipses`, `apostrophe`,
411 `dash`, `nested`, `F(..)`, `askF`, `asksF`, `runF`, `lineBlockLines`.
412 + `ParserState` is no longer an instance of `Show`.
413 + Added `stateSubstitutions` and `stateWarnings` to `ParserState`.
414 + Generalized type of `withQuoteContext`.
415 + Added `guardEnabled`, `guardDisabled`, `getOption`.
416 + Removed `failIfStrict`.
417 + `lookupKeySrc` and `fromKey` are no longer exported.
419 * `Data.Default` instances are now provided for `ReaderOptions`,
420 `WriterOptions`, and `ParserState`. `Text.Pandoc` re-exports `def`.
421 Now you can use `def` (which is re-exported by `Text.Pandoc`) instead
422 of `defaultWriterOptions` (which is still defined). Closes #546.
424 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
427 + Renamed `removedLeadingTrailingSpace` to `trim`,
428 `removeLeadingSpace` to `triml`, and `removeTrailingSpace` to `trimr`.
429 + Count `\r` as space in `trim` functions.
430 + Moved `renderTags'` from HTML reader and `Text.Pandoc.SelfContained`
432 + Removed `failUnlessLHS`.
433 + Export `compactify'`, formerly in Markdown reader.
434 + Export `isTightList`.
435 + Do not export `findDataFile`.
436 + `readDataFile` now returns a strict ByteString.
437 + Export `readDataFileUTF8` which returns a String, like the
439 + Export `fetchItem` and `openURL`.
441 * `Text.Pandoc.ImageSize`: Use strict, not lazy bytestrings.
442 Removed `readImageSize`.
444 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Export `encodePath`, `decodePath`,
445 `decodeArg`, `toString`, `fromString`, `toStringLazy`,
448 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` is now an exposed module.
450 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
452 + csl parameter now a `String` rather than a `FilePath`.
453 + Changed type of `processBiblio`. It is no longer in the IO monad.
454 It now takes a `Maybe Style` argument rather than parameters for CSL
455 and abbrev filenames. (`pandoc.hs` now calls the functions to parse
456 the style file and add abbreviations.)
458 * Markdown reader now exports `readMarkdownWithWarnings`.
460 * `Text.Pandoc.RTF` now exports `writeRTFWithEmbeddedImages` instead of
465 * Make `--ascii` work properly with `--self-contained`. Closes #568.
469 + Fixed link parser to avoid exponential slowdowns. Closes #620.
470 Previously the parser would hang on input like this:
474 We fixed this by making the link parser parser characters
475 between balanced brackets (skipping brackets in inline code spans),
476 then parsing the result as an inline list. One change is that
478 [hi *there]* bud](/url)
480 is now no longer parsed as a link. But in this respect pandoc behaved
481 differently from most other implementations anyway, so that seems okay.
483 + Look for raw html/latex blocks before tables.
484 Otherwise the following gets parsed as a table:
495 + Added support for `:target:` on `.. image::` blocks
499 - Fixed field lists items with body beginning after a new line
501 - Allow any char but ':' in names of field lists in RST reader
503 - Don't allow line breaks in field names.
504 - Require whitespace after field list field names.
505 - Don't create empty definition list for metadata field lists.
506 Previously a field list consisting only of metadata fields (author,
507 title, date) would be parsed as an empty DefinitionList, which is
508 not legal in LaTeX and not needed in any format.
510 + Don't recognize inline-markup starts inside words.
511 For example, `2*2 = 4*1` should not contain an emphasized
512 section. Added test case for "Literal symbols". Closes #569.
513 + Allow dashes as separator in simple tables. Closes #555.
514 + Added support for `container`, `compound`, `epigraph`,
515 `rubric`, `highlights`, `pull-quote`.
516 + Added support for `.. code::`.
517 + Made directive labels case-insensitive.
518 + Removed requirement that directives begin at left margin.
519 This was (correctly) not in earlier releases; docutils doesn't
520 make the requirement.
521 + Added support for `replace::` and `unicode::` substitutions.
522 + Ignore unknown interpreted roles.
523 + Renamed image parser to `subst`, since it now handles all
524 substitution references.
528 + Allow newlines before pipes in table. Closes #654.
529 + Fixed bug with list items containing line breaks.
530 Now pandoc correctly handles hard line breaks inside list items.
531 Previously they broke list parsing.
532 + Implemented comment blocks.
533 + Fixed bug affected words ending in hyphen.
534 + Properly handle links with surrounding brackets.
535 Square brackets need to be used when the link isn't surrounded by
536 spaces or punctuation, or when the URL ending may be ambiguous.
538 + Removed nullBlock. Better to know about parsing problems than
539 to skip stuff when we get stuck.
540 + Allow ID attributes on headers.
541 + Textile reader: Avoid parsing dashes as strikeout.
549 would be parsed with strikeouts rather than dashes. This fixes
550 the problem by requiring that a strikeout delimiting - not be
551 followed by a -. Closes #631.
552 + Expanded list of `stringBreakers`.
553 This fixes a bug on input like "(_hello_)" which should
554 be a parenthesized emphasized "hello".
555 The new list is taken from the PHP source of textile 2.4.
556 + Fixed autolinks. Previously the textile reader and writer
557 incorrectly implented RST-style autolinks for URLs and email
558 addresses. This has been fixed. Now an autolink is done this way:
559 `"$":http://myurl.com`.
560 + Fixed footnotes bug in textile. This affected notes occuring
561 before punctuation, e.g. `foo[1].`. Closes #518.
565 + Better handling of citation commands.
566 + Better handling of `\noindent`.
567 + Added a 'try' in rawLaTeXBlock, so we can handle `\begin` without `{`.
569 + Made `rawLaTeXInline` try to parse block commands as well. This
570 is usually what we want, given how `rawLaTeXInline` is used in
571 the markdown and textile readers. If a block-level LaTeX command
572 is used in the middle of a paragraph (e.g. `\subtitle` inside a title),
573 we can treat it as raw inline LaTeX.
574 + Handle \slash command. Closes #605.
575 + Basic `\enquote` support.
576 + Fixed parsing of paragraphs beginning with a group. Closes #606.
577 + Use curly quotes for bare straight quotes.
578 + Support obeylines environment. Closes #604.
579 + Guard against "begin", "end" in inlineCommand and
581 + Better error messages for environments. Now it should tell you that
582 it was looking for \end{env}, instead of giving "unknown parse error."
586 + Added HTML 5 tags to list of block-level tags.
587 + HTML reader: Fixed bug in `htmlBalanced`, which
588 caused hangs in parsing certain markdown input using
590 + Parse `<q>` as `Quoted DoubleQuote`.
591 + Handle nested `<q>` tags properly.
592 + Modified `htmlTag` for fewer false positives.
593 A tag must start with `<` followed by `!`,`?`, `/`, or a letter.
594 This makes it more useful in the wikimedia and markdown parsers.
596 * DocBook reader: Support title in "figure" element. Closes #650.
600 + Remove newline after `<br/>` in translation of `LineBreak`
601 There's no particular need for a newline (other than making the
602 generated MediaWiki source look nice to a human), and in fact
603 sometimes it is incorrect: in particular, inside an enumeration, list
604 items cannot have embedded newline characters. (Brent Yorgey)
605 + Use `<code>` not `<tt>` for Code.
607 * Man writer: Escape `-` as `\-`.
608 Unescaped `-`'s become hyphens, while `\-`'s are left as ascii minus
609 signs. That is preferable for use with command-line options. See
610 <http://lintian.debian.org/tags/hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.html>. Thanks
611 to Andrea Bolognani for bringing the issue to our attention.
615 + Improved line block output. Use nonbreaking spaces for
616 initial indent (otherwise lost in HTML and LaTeX).
617 Allow multiple paragraphs in a single line block.
618 Allow soft breaks w continuations in line blocks.
619 + Properly handle images with no alt text. Closes #678.
620 + Fixed bug with links with duplicate text. We now (a) use anonymous
621 links for links with inline URLs, and (b) use an inline link instead
622 of a reference link if the reference link would require a label that
623 has already been used for a different link. Closes #511.
624 + Fixed hyperlinked images. Closes #611. Use `:target:`
625 field when you have a simple linked image.
626 + Don't add `:align: center` to figures.
628 * Texinfo writer: Fixed internal cross-references.
629 Now we insert anchors after each header, and use `@ref` instead of `@uref`
630 for links. Commas are now escaped as `@comma{}` only when needed;
631 previously all commas were escaped. (This change is needed, in part,
632 because `@ref` commands must be followed by a real comma or period.) Also
633 insert a blank line in from of `@verbatim` environments.
637 + Made --id-prefix work in DocBook as well as HTML.
639 + Don't include empty captions in figures. Closes #581.
643 + Use `\hspace*` for nonbreaking space after line break,
644 since `~` spaces after a line break are just ignored.
646 + Don't escape `_` in URLs or hyperref identifiers.
647 + Properly escape strings inside \url{}. Closes #576.
648 + Use `[fragile]` only for slides containing code rendered
649 using listings. Closes #649.
650 + Escape `|` as `\vert` in LaTeX math. This avoids a clash with
651 highlighting-kate's macros, which redefine `|` as a short verbatim
652 delimiter. Thanks to Björn Peemöller for raising this issue.
653 + Use minipage rather than parbox for block containers in tables.
654 This allows verbatim code to be included in grid tables.
656 + Prevent paragraphs containing only linebreaks or spaces.
660 + Included `highlighting-css` for code spans, too.
661 Previously it was only included if used in a code block. Closes #653.
662 + Improved line breaks with `<dd>` tags. We now put a newline between
663 `</dd>` and `<dd>` when there are multiple definitions.
664 + Changed mathjax cdn url so it doesn't use https. (This caused
665 problems when used with `--self-contained`.) See #609.
669 + `--number-sections` now works properly.
670 + Don't strip meta and link elements in epub metadata.
671 Patch from aberrancy. Closes #589.
672 + Fixed a couple validation bugs.
673 + Use ch001, ch002, etc. for chapter filenames. This improves sorting
674 of chapters in some readers, which apparently sort ch2 after ch10.
677 * ODT writer: properly set title property (Arlo O'Keeffe).
681 + Fixed bug with nested lists. Previously a list like
688 would come out with a bullet instead of "2."
689 Thanks to Russell Allen for reporting the bug.
690 + Use `w:cr` in `w:r` instead of `w:br` for linebreaks.
691 This seems to fix a problem viewing pandoc-generated
692 docx files in LibreOffice.
693 + Use integer ids for bookmarks. Closes #626.
694 + Added nsid to abstractNum elements. This helps when merging
695 word documents with numbered or bulleted lists. Closes #627.
696 + Use separate footnotes.xml for notes.
697 This seems to help LibreOffice convert the file, even though
698 it was valid docx before. Closes #637.
699 + Use rIdNN identifiers for r:embed in images.
700 + Avoid reading image files again when we've already processed them.
701 + Fixed typo in `referenc.docx` that prevented image captions from
702 working. Thanks to Huashan Chen.
704 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
706 + Fixed bug in `withRaw`, which didn't correctly handle the case
707 where nothing is parsed.
708 + Made `emailAddress` parser more correct. Now it is based on RFC 822,
709 though it still doesn't implement quoted strings in email addresses.
710 + Revised URI parser. It now allows many more schemes, allows
711 uppercase URIs, and better handles trailing punctuation and
712 trailing slashes in bare URIs. Added many tests.
713 + Simplified and improved singleQuoteStart. This makes `'s'`, `'l'`,
714 etc. parse properly. Formerly we had some English-centric heuristics,
715 but they are no longer needed. Closes #698.
717 * `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`: Added wide punctuation range to `charWidth`.
718 This fixes bug with Chinese commas in markdown and reST tables, and
719 a bug that caused combining characters to be dropped.
721 * `Text.Pandoc.MIME`: Added MIME types for .wof and .eot. Closes #640.
723 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
725 + Run `mvPunc` and `deNote` on metadata too.
726 This fixed a bug with notes on titles using footnote styles.
727 + Fixed bug in fetching CSL files from CSL data directory.
729 * `pandoc.hs`: Give correct value to `writerSourceDirectory` when a URL
730 is provided. It should be the URL up to the path.
732 * Fixed/simplified diff output for tests.
733 Biblio: Make sure mvPunc and deNote run on metadata too.
734 This fixed a bug with notes on titles using footnote styles.
736 [under the hood improvements]
738 * We no longer depend on `utf8-string`. Instead we use functions
739 defined in `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` that use `Data.Text`'s conversions.
741 * Use `safeRead` instead of using `reads` directly (various modules).
743 * "Implicit figures" (images alone in a paragraph) are now handled
744 differently. The markdown reader gives their titles the prefix `fig:`; the
745 writers look for this before treating the image as a figure. Though this
746 is a bit of a hack, it has two advantages: (i) implicit figures can be
747 limited to the markdown reader, and (ii) they can be deactivated by turning
748 off the `implicit_figures` extension.
750 * `catch` from `Control.Exception` is now used instead of the
753 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`: Improved algorithm for `normalizeSpaces`
754 and `oneOfStrings` (which is now non-backtracking).
756 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`: Remove workaround for `toCapital`.
757 Now citeproc-hs is fixed upstream, so this is no longer needed.
760 * Textile reader: Improved speed of `hyphenedWords`.
761 This speeds up the textile reader by about a factor of 4.
763 * Use `Text.Pandoc.Builder` in RST reader, for more flexibility,
764 better performance, and automatic normalization.
766 * Major rewrite of markdown reader:
768 + Use `Text.Pandoc.Builder` instead of lists. This also
769 means that everything is normalized automatically.
770 + Move to a one-pass parsing strategy, returning values in the reader
771 monad, which are then run (at the end of parsing) against the final
774 * In HTML writer, we now use `toHtml` instead of pre-escaping.
775 We work around the problem that blaze-html unnecessarily escapes `'`
776 by pre-escaping just the `'` characters, instead of the whole string.
777 If blaze-html later stops escaping `'` characters, we can simplify
778 `strToHtml` to `toHtml`. Closes #629.
780 * Moved code for embedding images in RTFs from `pandoc.hs` to the
781 RTF writer (which now exports `writeRTFWithEmbeddedImages`).
783 * Moved citation processing from `pandoc.hs` into the readers.
784 This makes things more convenient for library users.
786 * The man pages are now built by an executable `make-pandoc-man-pages`,
787 which has its own stanza in the cabal file so that dependencies can be
788 handled by Cabal. Special treatment in `Setup.hs` ensures that this
789 executable never gets installed; it is only used to create the man pages.
791 * The cabal file has been modified so that the pandoc library is used
792 in building the pandoc executable. (This required moving `pandoc.hs`
793 from `src` to `.`.) This cuts compile time in half.
795 * `-O2` is no longer used in building pandoc. The performance improvement
796 it yields is so slight that it is not worth it. (Measured with
797 benchmarks on ghc 7.4.)
799 * The `executable` and `library` flags have been removed.
801 * `-threaded` has been removed from ghc-options.
803 * Version bounds of dependencies have been raised, and the
804 `blaze_html_0_5` flag now defaults to True. Pandoc now compiles on
807 * We now require base >= 4.2.
809 * Integrated the benchmark program into cabal. One can now do:
811 cabal configure --enable-benchmarks && cabal build
812 cabal bench --benchmark-option='markdown' --benchmark-option='-s 20'
814 The benchmark now uses README + testsuite, so benchmark results
815 from older versions aren't comparable.
817 * Integrated test suite with cabal.
818 To run tests, configure with `--enable-tests`, then `cabal test`.
819 You can specify particular tests using `--test-options='-t markdown'`.
820 No output is shown unless tests fail. The Haskell test modules
821 have been moved from `src/` to `tests/`.
823 * Moved all data files and templates to the `data/` subdirectory.
825 * Added an `embed_data_files` cabal flag. This causes all
826 data files to be embedded in the binary, so that the binary
827 is self-sufficient and can be relocated anywhere, copied on
828 a USB key, etc. The Windows installer now uses this.
829 (Since we no longer have the option to build the executable
830 without the library, this is the only way to get a relocatable
833 * Removed pcre3.dll from windows package.
834 It isn't needed unless highlighting-kate is compilled with the
835 `pcre-light` flag. By default, regex-prce-builtin is used.
840 * Don't encode/decode file paths if base >= 4.4.
841 Prior to base 4.4, filepaths and command line arguments were treated
842 as unencoded lists of bytes, not unicode strings, so we had to work
843 around that by encoding and decoding them. This commit adds CPP
844 checks for the base version that intelligibly enable encoding/decoding
845 when needed. Fixes a bug with multilingual filenames when pandoc was
846 compiled with ghc 7.4 (#540).
848 * Don't generate an empty H1 after hrule slide breaks.
849 We now use a slide-level header with contents `[Str "\0"]` to mark
850 an hrule break. This avoids creation of an empty H1 in these
851 contexts. Closes #484.
853 * Docbook reader: Added support for "bold" emphasis. Thanks to mb21.
855 * In make_osx_package.sh, ensure citeproc-hs is built with the
856 embed_data_files flag.
858 * MediaWiki writer: Avoid extra blank lines after sublists (Gavin Beatty).
860 * ConTeXt writer: Don't escape `&`, `^`, `<`, `>`, `_`,
861 simplified escapes for `}` and `{` to `\{` and `\}` (Aditya Mahajan).
863 * Fixed handling of absolute URLs in CSS imports with `--self-contained`.
866 * Added webm to mime types. Closes #543.
868 * Added some missing exports and tests to the cabal file
869 (Alexander V Vershilov).
871 * Compile with `-rtsopts` and `-threaded` by default.
875 * Markdown reader: Added `cf.` and `cp.` to list of likely abbreviations.
877 * LaTeX template: Added `linkcolor`, `urlcolor` and `links-as-notes`
878 variables. Make TOC links black.
880 * LaTeX template improvements.
882 + Don't print date unless one is given explicitly in the document.
883 + Simplified templates.
884 + Use fontenc [T1] by default, and lmodern.
885 + Use microtype if available.
889 + Add comma to beginning of bare suffix, e.g. `@item1 [50]`.
890 Motivation: `@item1 [50]` should be as close as possible to
892 + Added workaround for a bug in citeproc-hs 0.3.4 that causes footnotes
893 beginning with a citation to be empty. Closes #531.
895 * Fixed documentation on mixed lists. Closes #533.
899 * Simplified `Text.Pandoc.Biblio` and fixed bugs with citations inside
900 footnotes and captions. We now handle note citations by inserting
901 footnotes during initial citation processing, and doing a separate
902 pass later to remove notes inside notes.
904 * Added 'zenburn' highlight style from highlighting-kate.
906 * Added Slideous writer. Slideous is an HTML + javascript slide show
907 format, similar to Slidy, but works with IE 7. (Jonas Smedegaard)
911 + Ensure we don't have extra blank lines at ends of cells.
912 This can cause LaTeX errors, as they are interpreted as new paragraphs.
913 + More consistent interblock spacing.
914 + Require highlighting-kate >= 0.5.1, for proper highlighted inline
915 code in LaTeX. Closes #527.
916 + Ensure that a Verbatim at the end of a footnote is followed by
917 a newline. (Fixes a regression in the previous version.)
918 + In default template, use black for internal links and TOC.
919 Added commented-out code to use footnotes for links, as would
920 be suitable in print output.
922 * Beamer writer: When `--incremental` is used, lists inside
923 a block quote should appear all at once. (This makes Beamer
924 output consistent with the HTML slide show formats.)
928 + Escape `%` as `\letterpercent{}` not `\letterpercent `,
929 to avoid gobbling spaces after the `%` sign.
930 + Ensure space after `\stopformula`.
934 + Use `:` form instead of `~` in definition lists, for better
935 compatibility with other markdown implementations.
936 + Don't wrap the term, because it breaks definition lists.
937 + Use a nonzero space to prevent false recognition
938 of list marker in ordered lists. Closes #516.
940 * Org writer: Add space before language name. Closes #523.
942 * Docx writer: Simplified bullet characters so they work properly
943 with Word 2007. Closes #520.
945 * LaTeX reader: Support `\centerline`.
947 * RST reader: handle figures. Closes #522.
949 * Textile reader: fix for `<notextile>` and `==`. Closes #517.
954 * Fixed bug in `fromEntities`. The previous version would turn
955 `hi & low you know;` into `hi &`.
959 + Don't skip nonbreaking spaces.
960 Previously a paragraph containing just ` ` would be rendered
961 as an empty paragraph. Thanks to Paul Vorbach for pointing out the bug.
962 + Support `<col>` and `<caption>` in tables. Closes #486.
966 + Don't recognize references inside delimited code blocks.
967 + Allow list items to begin with lists.
969 * Added basic docbook reader (John MacFarlane and Mauro Bieg).
973 + Handle `\bgroup`, `\egroup`, `\begingroup`, `\endgroup`.
974 + Control sequences can't be followed by a letter.
975 This fixes a bug where `\begingroup` was parsed as `\begin`
977 + Parse 'dimension' arguments to unknown commands. e.g. `\parindent0pt`
978 + Make `\label` and `\ref` sensitive to `--parse-raw`.
979 If `--parse-raw` is selected, these will be parsed as raw latex
980 inlines, rather than bracketed text.
981 + Don't crash on unknown block commands (like `\vspace{10pt}`)
982 inside `\author`; just skip them. Closes #505.
986 + Implemented literal escapes with `==` and `<notextile>`. Closes #473.
987 + Added support for LaTeX blocks and inlines (Paul Rivier).
988 + Better conformance to RedCloth inline parsing (Paul Rivier).
989 + Parse '+text+' as emphasized (should be underlined, but this
990 is better than leaving literal plus characters in the output.
992 * Docx writer: Fixed multi-paragraph list items. Previously they each
993 got a list marker. Closes #457.
997 + Added `--no-tex-ligatures` option to avoid replacing
998 quotation marks and dashes with TeX ligatures.
999 + Use `fixltx2e` package to provide '\textsubscript'.
1000 + Improve spacing around LaTeX block environments:
1001 quote, verbatim, itemize, description, enumerate.
1003 + Use blue instead of pink for URL links in latex/pdf output.
1005 * ConTeXt writer: Fixed escaping of `%`.
1006 In text, `%` needs to be escaped as `\letterpercent`, not `\%`
1007 Inside URLs, `%` needs to be escaped as `\%`
1008 Thanks to jmarca and adityam for the fix. Closes #492.
1010 * Texinfo writer: Escape special characters in node titles.
1011 This fixes a problem pointed out by Joost Kremers. Pandoc used
1012 to escape an '@' in a chapter title, but not in the corresponding
1013 node title, leading to invalid texinfo.
1015 * Fixed document encoding in texinfo template.
1016 Resolves Debian Bug #667816.
1020 + Don't force delimited code blocks to be flush left.
1021 Fixes bug with delimited code blocks inside lists etc.
1022 + Escape `<` and `$`.
1024 * LaTeX writer: Use `\hyperref[ident]{text}` for internal links.
1025 Previously we used `\href{\#ident}{text}`, which didn't work on
1026 all systems. Thanks to Dirk Laurie.
1028 * RST writer: Don't wrap link references. Closes #487.
1030 * Updated to use latest versions of blaze-html, mtl.
1037 + Made `lstlisting` work as a proper verbatim environment.
1038 + Fixed bug parsing LaTeX tables with one column.
1042 + Use `{}` around `ctable` caption, so that formatting can be used.
1043 + Don't require eurosym package unless document has a €.
1045 * LaTeX template: Added variables for `geometry`, `romanfont`,
1046 `sansfont`, `mathfont`, `mainfont` so users can more easily
1051 + Run latex engine at least two times, to ensure
1052 that PDFs will have hyperlinked bookmarks.
1053 + Added PDF metadata (title,author) in LaTeX standalone + PDF output.
1055 * Texinfo writer: retain directories in image paths. (Peter Wang)
1057 * RST writer: Better handling of inline formatting, in accord
1058 with docutils' "inline markup recognition rules" (though we don't
1059 implement the unicode rules fully). Now `hi*there*hi` gets
1060 rendered properly as `hi\ *there*\ hi`, and unnecessary
1061 `\ ` are avoided around `:math:`, `:sub:`, `:sup:`.
1065 + Parse `\ ` as null, not escaped space.
1066 + Allow `` :math:`...` `` even when not followed by blank
1067 or `\`. This does not implement the complex rule docutils follows,
1068 but it should be good enough for most purposes.
1069 + Add support for the rST default-role directive. (Greg Maslov)
1071 * Text.Pandoc.Parsing: Added `stateRstDefaultRole` field to `ParserState`.
1074 * Markdown reader: Properly handle citations nested in other inline
1077 * Markdown writer: don't replace empty alt in image with "image".
1079 * DZSlides: Updated template.html and styles in default template.
1080 Removed bizarre CSS for `q` in dzslides template.
1082 * Avoid repeated `id` attribute in section and header in HTML slides.
1084 * README improvements: new instructions on internal links,
1085 removed misleading note on reST math.
1089 + Fixed Windows installer so that dzslides works.
1090 + Removed stripansi.sh.
1091 + Added .travis.yml for Travis continuous integration support..
1092 + Fixed upper bound for zlib (Sergei Trofimovich).
1093 + Fixed upper bound for test-framework.
1094 + Updated haddocks for haddock-2.10 (Sergei Trofimovich).
1098 * Added `beamer+lhs` as output format.
1100 * Don't escape `<` in `<style>` tags with `--self-contained`.
1101 This fixes a bug which prevented highlighting from working
1102 when using `--self-contained`.
1104 * PDF: run latex engine three times if `--toc` specified.
1105 This fixes page numbers in the table of contents.
1107 * Docx writer: Added TableNormal style to tables.
1109 * LaTeX math environment fixes. `aligned` is now used instead of
1110 the nonexistent `aligned*`. `multline` instead of the nonexistent
1113 * LaTeX writer: Use `\textasciitilde` for literal `~`.
1115 * HTML writer: Don't escape contents of EQ tags with --gladtex.
1116 This fixes a regression from 1.8.
1118 * Use `<q>` tags for Quoted items for HTML5 output.
1119 The quote style can be changed by modifying the template
1120 or including a css file. A default quote style is included.
1122 * LaTeX reader: Fixed accents (\~{a}, `\c{c}`).
1123 Correctly handle \^{}. Support "minted" as a LaTeX verbatim block.
1125 * Updated LaTeX template for better language support.
1126 Use `polyglossia` instead of `babel` with xetex.
1127 Set `lang` as documentclass option.
1128 `\setmainlanguage` will use the last of a comma-separated
1129 list of languages. Thanks to François Gannaz.
1131 * Fixed default LaTeX template so `\euro` and `€` work. The
1132 `eurosym` package is needed if you are using pdflatex.
1134 * Fixed escaping of period in man writer (thanks to Michael Thompson).
1136 * Fixed list label positions in beamer.
1138 * Set `mainlang` variable in context writer.
1139 This parallels behavior of latex writer. `mainlang` is the last
1140 of a comma-separated list of languages in lang.
1142 * EPUB language metadat: convert e.g. `en_US` from locale to `en-US`.
1144 * Changed `-V` so that you can specify a key without a value.
1145 Such keys get the value `true`.
1147 * Fixed permissions on installed man pages - thanks Magnus Therning.
1149 * Windows installer: require XP or higher. The installer is
1150 now compiled on a Windows 7 machine, which fixes a problem
1151 using citation functions on Windows 7.
1153 * OSX package: Check for 64-bit Intel CPU before installing.
1157 * Better handling of raw latex environments in markdown. Now
1163 turns into a raw latex block as expected.
1165 * Improvements to LaTeX reader:
1167 + Skip options after block commands.
1168 + Correctly handle `{\\}` in braced.
1169 + Added a needed 'try'.
1170 + Citations: add `, ` to suffix if it doesn't start with space or
1171 punctuation. Otherwise we get no space between the year and the
1172 suffix in author-date styles.
1174 * Added two needed data files for S5. This fixes a problem with
1175 `pandoc -t s5 --self-contained`. Also removed `slides.min.js`,
1176 which was no longer being used.
1178 * Fixed some minor problems in `reference.docx`:
1179 name on "Date" style, `xCs` instead of `xIs`.
1181 * Fixed a problem creating docx files using a reference docx
1182 modified using Word. The problem seems to be that Word
1183 modifies `_rels/.rels`, changing the Type of the Relationship to
1184 `docProps/core.xml`. Pandoc now changes this back to the correct
1185 value if it has been altered, fixing the problem.
1187 * Fixed html5 template so it works properly with highlighting.
1193 + Fixed regression in 1.9; properly handle escaped $ in latex math.
1194 + Put LaTeX verse environments in blockquotes.
1198 + Limit nesting of strong/emph. This avoids exponential lookahead
1199 in parasitic cases, like `a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**a*a**`.
1200 + Improved attributes syntax (inn code blocks/spans):
1201 (1) Attributes can contain line breaks. (2) Values in key-value
1202 attributes can be surrounded by either double or single quotes, or
1203 left unquoted if they contain no spaces.
1205 * Don't wrap headers in markdown or RST writers.
1207 * Added `stateMaxNestingLevel` to `ParserState`.
1208 We set this to 6, so you can still have `Emph` inside `Emph`,
1209 just not indefinitely.
1211 * More efficient implementation of `nowrap` in `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`.
1213 * `Text.Pandoc.PDF`: Only run latex twice if `\tableofcontents`
1216 * Require highlighting-kate >= 0.5.0.2, texmath >= 0.6.0.2.
1220 * Changed cabal file so that build-depends for the test program
1221 are not required unless the tests flag is used.
1223 * LaTeX writer: insert `{}` between adjacent hyphens so they don't
1224 form ligatures (dashes) in code spans.
1228 * Raised version bound on test-framework to avoid problems
1229 compiling tests on GHC 7.4.1.
1231 * LaTeX reader: Use raw LaTeX as fallback inline text for Cites,
1232 so citations don't just disappear unless you process with
1233 citeproc. Ignore `\bibliographystyle`, `\nocite`.
1235 * Simplified tex2pdf; it will always run latex twice to
1236 resolve table of contents and hyperrefs.
1240 * Require Cabal >= 1.10.
1241 * Tweaked cabal file to meet Cabal 1.10 requirements.
1245 * Allow build with json 0.4 or 0.5. Otherwise we can't build with
1252 * Added a Microsoft Word `docx` writer. The writer includes support
1253 for highlighted code and for math (which is converted from TeX to OMML,
1254 Office's native math markup language, using texmath's new OMML module).
1255 A new option `--reference-docx` allows the user to customize the
1258 * Added an `asciidoc` writer (<http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/>).
1260 * Better support for slide shows:
1262 + Added a `dzslides` writer. DZSlides is a lightweight HTML5/javascript
1263 slide show format due to Paul Rouget (<http://paulrouget.com/dzslides/>).
1265 + Added a LaTeX `beamer` writer. Beamer is a LaTeX package for creating
1266 slide presentations.
1268 + New, flexible rules for dividing documents into sections and slides
1269 (see the "Structuring the slide show" in the User's Guide). These
1270 are backward-compatible with the old rules, but they allow slide
1271 shows to be organized into sections and subsections containing
1274 + A new `--slide-level` option allows users to override defaults
1275 and select a slide level below the first header level with content.
1277 * A new `--self-contained` option produces HTML output that does not
1278 depend on an internet connection or the presence of any external
1279 files. Linked images, CSS, and javascript is downloaded (or fetched
1280 locally) and encoded in `data:` URIs. This is useful for making portable
1281 `HTML slide shows. The --offline` option has been deprecated and is now
1282 `treated as a synonym or --self-contained`.
1284 * Support for PDF output:
1286 + Removed the old `markdown2pdf`.
1287 + `pandoc` can now create PDFs (assuming you have latex and a set of
1288 appropriate packages installed): just specify an output file with the
1290 + A new option `--latex-engine` allows you to specify `pdflatex`,
1291 `xelatex`, or `lualatex` as the processor.
1293 * Highlighting changes:
1295 + Syntax highlighting is now a standard feature; the `highlighting`
1296 flag is no longer needed when compiling.
1297 + A new `--no-highlight` option allows highlighting to be disabled.
1298 + Highlighting now works in `docx`, `latex`, and `epub`, as well as
1299 `html`, `html5`, `dzslides`, `s5`, and `slidy`.
1300 + A new `--highlight-style` option selects between various highlighting
1303 * Internal links to sections now work in ConTeXt and LaTeX as well as HTML.
1305 * LaTeX `\include` and `\usepackage` commands are now processed,
1306 provided the files are in the working directory.
1308 * EPUB improvements:
1310 + Internal and external links now work in EPUB.
1311 + Raw HTML is allowed.
1312 + New `--epub-embed-font` option.
1313 + Customizable templates for EPUB pages offer more control over
1314 formatting: `epub-page.html`, `epub-coverimage.html`,
1315 `epub-titlepage.html`.
1317 * `--mathml` now works with DocBook.
1319 * Added support for math in RST reader and writer. Inline math uses the
1320 `` :math:`...` `` construct. Display math uses
1324 or if the math is multiline,
1330 These constructions are now supported now by `rst2latex.py`.
1332 * Github syntax for fenced code blocks is supported in pandoc's
1333 markdown. You can now write
1345 * Easier scripting: a new `toJsonFilter` function makes it easier to
1346 write Haskell scripts to manipulate the Pandoc AST.
1350 * Fixed parsing of consecutive lists in markdown.
1351 Pandoc previously behaved like Markdown.pl for consecutive
1352 lists of different styles. Thus, the following would be parsed
1353 as a single ordered list, rather than an ordered list followed
1354 by an unordered list:
1362 This change makes pandoc behave more sensibly, parsing this as
1363 two lists. Any change in list type (ordered/unordered) or in
1364 list number style will trigger a new list. Thus, the following
1365 will also be parsed as two lists:
1373 Since we regard this as a bug in Markdown.pl, and not something
1374 anyone would ever rely on, we do not preserve the old behavior
1375 even when `--strict` is selected.
1377 * Dashes work differently with `--smart`: `---` is always em-dash,
1378 and `--` is always en-dash. Pandoc no longer tries to guess when
1379 `-` should be en-dash. *Note:* This may change how existing documents
1380 look when processed with pandoc. A new option, `--old-dashes`,
1381 is provided for legacy documents.
1383 * The markdown writer now uses setext headers for levels 1-2.
1384 The old behavior (ATX headers for all levels) can be restored
1385 using the new `--atx-headers` option.
1387 * Links are now allowed in markdown image captions. They are also
1388 allowed in links, but will appear there as regular text. So,
1390 [link with [link](/url)](/url)
1394 <p><a href="/url">link with link</a></p>
1396 * Improved handling of citations using `citeproc-hs-0.3.4`.
1397 Added `--citation-abbreviations` option.
1399 * Citation keys can no longer end with a punctuation character.
1400 This means that `@item1.` will be parsed as a citation with key
1401 'item1', followed by a period, instead of a citation with key
1402 'item1.', as was the case previously.
1404 * In HTML output, citations are now put in a span with class `citation`.
1406 * The markdown reader now recognizes DocBook block and inline tags.
1407 It was always possible to include raw DocBook tags in a markdown
1408 document, but now pandoc will be able to distinguish block from
1409 inline tags and behave accordingly. Thus, for example,
1415 will not be wrapped in `<para>` tags.
1417 * The LaTeX parser has been completely rewritten; it is now much more
1418 accurate, robust, and extensible. However, there are two important
1419 changes in how it treats unknown LaTeX. (1) Previously, unknown
1420 environments became BlockQuote elements; now, they are treated
1421 as "transparent", so `\begin{unknown}xyz\end{unknown}` is the
1422 same as `xyz`. (2) Previously, arguments of unknown commands
1423 were passed through with their braces; now the braces are stripped
1426 * `--smart` is no longer selected automatically with `man` output.
1428 * The deprecated `--xetex` option has been removed.
1430 * The `--html5`/`-5` option has been deprecated. Use `-t html5`
1431 instead. `html5` and `html5+lhs` are now separate output formats.
1433 * Single quotes are no longer escaped in HTML output. They do not
1434 need to be escaped outside of attributes.
1436 * Pandoc will no longer transform leading newlines in code
1437 blocks to `<br/>` tags.
1439 * The ODT writer now sizes images appropriately, using the image
1440 size and DPI information embedded in the image.
1442 * `--standalone` is once again implicitly for a non-text output format
1443 (ODT, EPUB). You can again do `pandoc test.txt -o test.odt`
1444 and get a standalone ODT file.
1446 * The Docbook writer now uses `<sect1>`, `<sect2>`, etc. instead of
1449 * The HTML writer now uses `<del>` for strikeout.
1451 * In HTML output with `--section-divs`, the classes `section` and
1452 `level[1,2,..6]` are put on the `div` tags so they can be styled.
1453 In HTML 5 output with `--section-divs`, the classes
1454 `level[1,2,...6]` are put on `section` tags.
1456 * EPUB writer changes:
1458 + The `lang` variable now sets the language
1459 in the metadata (if it is not set, we default to the locale).
1460 + EPUB: UTF-8 is used rather than decimal entities.
1462 * Added `titleslide` class to title slide in S5 template.
1464 * In HTML, EPUB, and docx metadata, the date is normalized into
1465 YYYY-MM-DD format if possible. (This is required for validation.)
1467 * Attributes in highlighted code blocks are now preserved in HTML.
1468 The container element will have the classes, id, and key-value attributes
1469 you specified in the delimited code block. Previously these were stripped
1472 * The reference backlink in the HTML writer no longer has a special
1473 `footnoteBacklink` class.
1475 * The HTML template has been split into `html` and `html5` templates.
1477 * Author and date are treated more consistently in HTML templates.
1478 Authors are now `<h2>`, date `<h3>`.
1480 * URLs are hyphenated in the ConTeXt writer (B. Scott Michel).
1482 * In `Text.Pandoc.Builder`, `+++` has been replaced by `<>`.
1486 * Better support for combining characters and East Asian wide characters
1487 in markdown and reST.
1489 * Better handling of single quotes with `--smart`.
1490 Previously `D'oh l'*aide*` would be parsed with left and right single
1491 quotes instead of apostrophes. This kind of error is now fixed.
1493 * Highlighting: Use `reads` instead of `read` for better error handling.
1494 Fixes crash on `startNum="abc"`.
1496 * Added blank comment after directives in rst template.
1498 * Unescape entities in citation `refId`. The `refId`s coming
1499 from citeproc contain XML numeric entities, and these don't match with the
1500 citation keys parsed by pandoc. Solution is to unescape them.
1502 * HTML reader: Fixed bug parsing tables with both thead and tbody.
1506 + Better handling of escapes in link URLs and titles.
1507 + Fixed backslash escapes in reference links.
1508 + Fixed bug in table/hrule parsing, by checking that the top
1509 line of a table is not followed by a blank line. This bug caused
1510 slowdowns on some files with hrules and tables, as pandoc tried to
1511 interpret the hrules as the tops of multiline tables.
1512 + Fixed bug in code block attribute parser. Previously the ID attribute
1513 got lost if it didn't come first. Now attributes can come in any order.
1515 * RST reader: allow footnotes followed by newline without space characters.
1519 + Ignore empty groups {}, { }.
1520 + LaTeX reader: Handle \@.
1521 + LaTeX reader: Don't crash on commands like `\itemsep`.
1522 + LaTeX reader: Better handling of letter environments.
1524 * RST writer: Fixed bug involving empty table cells. isSimple was being
1525 calculated in a way that assumed there were no non-empty cells.
1529 + Made `--toc` work even without `--number-sections`.
1530 + Escape # in link URLs.
1531 + Use buffering for footnotes containing code blocks.
1532 + Changed 'descr' to 'description', fixed alignment.
1536 + Escape euro character.
1537 + Don't escape ~ inside href{...}.
1538 + Escape # in href URLs.
1539 + Improved detection of book classes. We now check the
1540 `documentclass` variable, and if that is not set, we look through
1541 the template itself. Also, we have added the KOMA classes scrreprt
1542 and scrbook. You can now make a book using
1543 `pandoc -V documentclass:book mybook.txt -o mybook.pdf`
1544 + LHS files now set the "listings" variable, so that the definition
1545 of the `code` environment will be included in the template.
1546 + Links are colored blue by default (this can be changed by
1547 modifying `hyperref` settings in the template).
1548 + Added `lang` variable to LaTeX template.
1552 + Fixed bug in HTML template with html5 and mathml.
1553 + Don't use self-closing img, br, hr tags for HTML5.
1554 + Use `<section>` for footnotes if HTML5.
1555 + Update HTML templates to use Content-Style-Type meta tag.
1556 + Use separate variables for meta-date, meta-author.
1557 This makes footnotes work in author and date fields.
1558 + Use 'vertical-align:middle' in WebTeX math for better alignment.
1560 * S5/slidy writer: Make footnotes appear on separate slide at end.
1562 * MIME: Added 'layout-cache' to getMimeType. This ensures that the
1563 META-INF/manifest.xml for ODT files will have everything it needs, so
1564 that ODT files modified by LibreOffice can be used as `--reference-odt`.
1566 * `Text.Pandoc.Templates`: Return empty string for json template.
1568 * `Text.Pandoc.Biblio`:
1570 + Expand citations recursively inside nested inlines.
1571 + Treat `\160` as space when parsing locator and suffix.
1572 This fixes a bug with "p. 33" when `--smart` is used. Previously
1573 the whole "p. 33" would be included in the suffix, with no locator.
1574 + Put whole author-in-text citation in a Cite. Previously just the
1575 date and other info went in the Cite.
1576 + Don't add comma+space to prefix if it ends in punctuation.
1578 * Updated chicago-author-date.csl. The old version did not work
1579 properly for edited volumes with no author.
1583 + Add date to EPUB titlepage and metadata.
1584 + Added TOC identifier in EPUB page template.
1585 + Don't generate superfluous file `cover-image.jpg`.
1587 [under the hood improvements]
1589 * Modified `make_osx_package.sh` to use cabal-dev.
1590 Items are no longer installed as root.
1591 Man pages are zipped and given proper permissions.
1593 * Modified windows installer generater to use cabal-dev.
1595 * Setup: Making man pages now works with cabal-dev (at least on OSX). In
1596 Setup.hs we now invoke 'runghc' in a way that points it to the correct
1597 package databases, instead of always falling back to the default user
1600 * Updated to work with GHC 7.4.1.
1602 * Removed dependency on old-time.
1604 * Removed dependency on dlist.
1606 * New slidy directory for "self-contained."
1608 * TeXMath writer: Use unicode thin spaces for thin spaces.
1610 * Markdown citations: don't strip off initial space in locator.
1614 * Removed `Apostrophe`, `EmDash`, `EnDash`, and `Ellipses`
1615 from the native `Inline` type in pandoc-types. Now we use `Str`
1616 elements with unicode.
1618 * Improvements to `Text.Pandoc.Builder`:
1620 + `Inlines` and `Blocks` are now newtypes (not synonyms for
1622 + Instances are defined for `IsString`, `Show`, `Read`, `Monoid`,
1623 and a new `Listable` class, which allows these to be manipulated
1624 to some extent like lists. Monoid append includes automatic
1626 + `+++` has been replaced by `<>` (mappend).
1628 * Use blaze-html instead of xhtml for HTML generation.
1629 This changes the type of `writeHtml`.
1631 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
1633 + Added `warn` and `err`.
1634 + Removed `unescapeURI`, modified `escapeURI`.
1635 (See under [behavior changes], above.)
1637 * Changes in URI escaping: Previously the readers escaped URIs by
1638 converting unicode characters to octets and then percent encoding.
1639 Now unicode characters are left as they are, and `escapeURI` only
1640 percent-encodes space characters. This gives more readable
1641 URIs, and works well with modern user agents. URIs are no longer unescaped
1642 at all on conversion to `markdown`, `asciidoc`, `rst`, `org`.
1644 * New module `Text.Pandoc.SelfContained`.
1646 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Docx`.
1648 * New module `Text.Pandoc.PDF`.
1650 * Added `writerBeamer` to `WriterOptions`.
1652 * Added `normalizeDate` to `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
1654 * Added `splitStringWithIndices` in `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
1655 This is like `splitWithIndices`, but it is sensitive to distinctions
1656 between wide, combining, and regular characters.
1658 * `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`:
1660 + Added `chomp` combinator.
1661 + Added `beforeNonBreak` combinator. This allows you to include
1662 something conditionally on it being before a nonblank.
1663 Used for RST inline math.
1664 + Added `charWidth` function. All characters marked W or F in the unicode
1665 spec EastAsianWidth.txt get width 2.
1666 + Added `realLength`, based on `charWidth`. `realLength` is now
1667 used in calculating offsets.
1669 * New module `Text.Pandoc.Slides`, for common functions for breaking
1670 a document into slides.
1672 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.S5`, which is no longer needed.
1674 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences`. Moved
1675 `characterReference` to `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
1676 `decodeCharacterReferences` is replaced by `fromEntities`
1677 in `Text.Pandoc.XML`.
1679 * Added `Text.Pandoc.ImageSize`. This is intened for use
1680 in `docx` and `odt` writers, so the size and dpi of images
1683 * Removed `writerAscii` in `WriterOptions`.
1685 * Added `writerHighlight` to `WriterOptions`.
1687 * Added `DZSlides` to `HTMLSlideVariant`.
1689 * `writeEPUB` has a new argument for font files to embed.
1691 * Added `stateLastStrPos` to `ParserState`. This lets us keep track
1692 of whether we're parsing the position immediately after a regular
1693 (non-space, non-symbol) string, which is useful for distinguishing
1694 apostrophes from single quote starts.
1696 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
1698 + `escaped` now returns a `Char`.
1699 + Removed `charsInBalanced'`, added a character parser as
1700 a parameter of `charsInBalanced`. This is needed for
1701 proper handling of escapes, etc.
1704 * Added `toEntities` to `Text.Pandoc.XML`.
1706 * `Text.Pandoc.Readers.LaTeX`:
1708 + Export `handleIncludes`.
1709 + Export `rawLaTeXBlock` instead of `rawLaTeXEnvironment'`.
1711 * Added `ToJsonFilter` class and `toJsonFilter` function to
1712 `Text.Pandoc`, deprecating the old `jsonFilter` function.
1714 * `Text.Pandoc.Highlighting`:
1716 + Removed `highlightHtml`, `defaultHighlightingCss`.
1717 + Export `formatLaTeXInline`, `formatLaTeXBlock`, and `highlight`, plus
1718 key functions from highlighting-kate.
1719 + Changed types of highlighting function. `highlight` returns a
1720 `Maybe`, not an `Either`.
1724 * Relaxed cabal consntraints for test-framework (S. Trofimovich).
1726 * Relaxed cabal constraints for pandoc-types.
1728 * Adjusted Arbitrary instance to help avoid timeouts in tests.
1730 * Added `Tests.Writers.Markdown` to cabal file.
1734 * Added script to produce OS X package.
1736 * Made `templates` directory a git submodule. This should make it
1737 easier for people to revise their custom templates when the default
1740 * Changed template naming scheme: `FORMAT.template` -> `default.FORMAT`.
1741 **Note:** If you have existing templates in `~/.pandoc/templates`, you
1742 must rename them to conform to the new scheme!
1744 * Fixed smart quotes bug, now handling `'...hi'` properly.
1748 + Partial support for labeled footnotes.
1749 + Improved accuracy of `simpleReferenceName` parser.
1753 + Substitute correct unicode characters for
1754 characters in the 128..159 range, which are often found even in
1755 HTML that purports to be UTF-8.
1757 * LaTeX reader: Handle `\subtitle` command (a subtitle is added
1758 to the title, after a colon and linebreak). Closes #280.
1760 * Leaner `reference.odt`.
1762 * Added unexported module `Text.Pandoc.MIME` for use in
1765 * ODT writer: Construct `manifest.xml` based on archive contents.
1766 This fixes a bug in ODTs containing images. Recent versions of
1767 LibreOffice would reject these as corrupt, because `manifest.xml`
1768 did not contain a reference to the image files.
1772 + Make verbatim environments flush to avoid spurious
1773 blank lines. Closes #277.
1774 + Use `\texttt` and escapes insntead of `\verb!...!`, which
1775 is too fragile (doesn't work in command arguments).
1776 + Use `\enquote{}` for quotes if the template includes
1777 the `csquotes` package. This provides better support for
1778 local quoting styles. (Thanks to Andreas Wagner for the idea.)
1780 * ConTeXt writer: Make `\starttyping`/`\stoptyping` flush with
1781 margin, preventing spurious blank lines.
1785 + Use non-minimized version of `slidy.css` with `--offline`
1786 option, so users can more easily edit it.
1787 + Also fixed a bug in the CSS that prevented proper centering
1788 of title (now reported and fixed upstream).
1792 + Replaced `s5/default/slides.js.{comment,packed}` with
1793 new compressed `s5/default/slides.min.js`.
1794 + Use `data:` protocol to embed S5 CSS in `<link>` tags,
1795 when `--offline` is specified. Using inline CSS didn't
1796 work with Chrome or Safari. This fixes offline
1797 S5 on those browsers.
1799 * HTML writer: Removed English title on footnote backlinks.
1800 This is incongrous in non-English documents.
1804 + Use CALS tables. (Some older docbook software does not work
1805 well with XHTML tables.) Closes #77.
1806 + Use `programlisting` tags (instead of `screen`) for code blocks.
1810 + Calls latex with `-halt-on-error -interaction nonstopmode` instead
1811 of `-interaction=batchmode`, which essentially just ignored errors,
1812 leading to bad results. Better to know when something is wrong.
1813 + Fixed issues with non-UTF-8 output of `pdflatex`.
1814 + Better error reporting.
1816 * `--mathjax` now takes an optional URL argument. If it is not
1817 provided, pandoc links directly to the (secure) mathjax CDN,
1818 as now recommended (thanks to dsanson).
1820 * Deprecated `--xetex` option in `pandoc`. It is no longer needed,
1821 since the LaTeX writer now produces a file that can be processed by
1822 `latex`, `pdflatex`, `lualatex`, or `xelatex`.
1824 * Introduced `--luatex` option to `markdown2pdf`. This causes `lualatex`
1825 to be used to create the PDF.
1827 * If a template specified with `--template` is not found, look for it
1828 in `datadir`. Also, if no extension is provided, supply one based
1829 on the writer. So now you can put your `special.latex` template in
1830 `~/.pandoc/templates`, and use it from any directory via
1831 `pandoc -t latex --template special`.
1833 * Default template improvements:
1835 + HTML: Display author and date after title.
1836 + HTML: Made table of contents more customizable. The container
1837 for the TOC is now in the template, so users can insert a header
1838 or other styling. (Thanks to Bruce D'Arcus for the suggestion.)
1839 + HTML, Slidy, S5: Enclose scripts in CDATA tags.
1840 + Slidy, S5: Added `s5-url` and `slidy-url` variables, instead of
1841 hard-coding. If you want to put your slidy files in the slidy
1842 subdirectory, for example, you can do
1843 `pandoc -t slidy -V slidy-url=slidy -s`.
1844 + LaTeX: Use `\and` to separate authors in LaTeX documents (reader
1845 & writer). Closes #279.
1846 + LaTeX: Use different `hyperref` options for `xetex`, fixing
1847 problems with unicode bookmarks (thanks to CircleCode).
1848 + LaTeX: Removed `ucs` package, use `utf8` rather than `utf8x`
1849 with `inputenc`. This covers fewer characters but is more
1850 robust with other packages, and `ucs` is unmaintained. Users
1851 who need better unicode support should use xelatex or lualatex.
1855 * Added `--epub-cover-image` option.
1857 * Documented `--biblatex` and `--natbib` options.
1859 * Allow `--section-divs` with slidy output. Resolves Issue #296.
1861 * Disallow notes within notes in reST and markdown.
1862 These previously caused infinite looping and stack overflows.
1869 Note references are allowed in reST notes, so this isn't a full
1870 implementation of reST. That can come later. For now we need to
1871 prevent the stack overflows. Partially resolves Issue #297.
1873 * EPUB writer: Allow non-plain math methods.
1875 * Forbid ()s in citation item keys. Resolves Issue #304: problems with
1876 `(@item1; @item2)` because the final paren was being parsed as part of
1879 * Changed URI parser so it doesn't include trailing punctuation.
1880 So, in RST, `http://google.com.` should be parsed as a link followed by a
1881 period. The parser is smart enough to recognize balanced parentheses, as
1882 often occur in wikipedia links: `http://foo.bar/baz_(bam)`.
1884 * Markdown+lhs reader: Require space after inverse bird tracks, so that
1885 HTML tags can be used freely at the left margin of a markdown+lhs document.
1886 Thanks to Conal Elliot for the suggestion.
1890 + Improved emph/strong parsing; fixes bug found by Perry Wagle.
1891 + Fixed bug in footnote order (reported by CircleCode).
1894 + Fixed bug in in field lists with multi-line items at the
1896 + Added parentheses to RST `specialChars`, so
1897 `(http://google.com)` will be parsed as a link in parens.
1898 Resolves Issue #291.
1899 + Allow `|` followed by newline in RST line block.
1903 + Gobble option & space after linebreak `\\[10pt]`.
1906 + Make it possible to have colons after links. (qerub)
1907 + Make it possible to have colons after links. (Christoffer Sawicki)
1910 + Skip spaces after `<b>`, `<emph>`, etc.
1911 + Handle tbody, thead in simple tables. Closes #274.
1912 + Implicit `Para`s instead of `Plains` in some contexts.
1914 * OpenDocument writer: Use special `First paragraph` style for
1915 first paragraph after most non-paragraph blocks. This allows users to
1916 specify e.g. that only paragraphs after the first paragraph of a block are
1917 to be indented. Thanks to Andrea Rossato for the patch. Closes #20.
1919 * LaTeX writer: use `deVerb` on table and picture captions.
1920 Otherwise LaTeX complains about `\verb` inside command argument.
1921 Thanks to bbanier for reporting the bug.
1923 * Markdown writer: Insert HTML comment btw list and indented code block.
1924 This prevents the code block from being interpreted as part of the list.
1926 * EPUB writer: Add a meta element specify the cover.
1927 Some EPUB e-readers, such as the Nook, require a meta element inside the
1928 OPF metadata block to ensure the cover image is properly displayed.
1931 * HTML writer: Use embed tag for images with non-image extensions.
1932 (e.g. PDFs). Closes #264.
1934 * LaTeX writer: Improved tables.
1936 + More space between lines, top-align cells.
1937 + Use ctable package, which allows footnotes and
1938 provides additional options.
1939 + Made cell alignments work in multiline tables.
1940 + Closes #271, #272.
1942 * Un-URI-escape image filenames in LaTeX, ConTeXt, RTF, Texinfo.
1943 Also do this when copying image files into EPUBs and ODTs.
1946 * Changed to github issue tracker.
1948 * Added failing emph/strong markdown test case due to Perry Wagle.
1950 * Slidy improvements:
1951 + Updated to use Slidy2.
1952 + Fixed bug, unclosed div tag.
1953 + Added `duration` variable in template.
1954 Setting this activates the timer.
1955 + Use 'titlepage' instead of 'cover' for title div.
1959 * `markdown2pdf`: Removed some debugging lines accidentally included
1960 in the 1.8.1 release. With those lines, the temp directory is created
1961 in the working directory, and it is not deleted. This fix restores
1962 the original behavior.
1966 * Added `--ascii` option. Currently supported only in HTML writer,
1967 which it causes to use numerical entities instead of UTF-8.
1969 * EPUB writer: `--toc` now works to provide a table of contents
1970 at the beginning of each chapter.
1972 * LaTeX writer: Change figure defaults to `htbp`.
1973 This prevents "too many unprocessed floats." Resolves
1976 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8`: Encode filenames even when using recent
1979 * `markdown2pdf`: Fixed filename encoding issues. With help from Paulo
1980 Tanimoto. Resolves Issue #286.
1982 * HTML writer: Put line breaks in section divs.
1984 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`: Make `writerSectionDivs` default to False.
1988 * Fixed Source-repository stanza in cabal file.
1994 + Stringify alt text instead of converting to HTML.
1995 + Break lines after block elements, not inside tags.
1996 HTML output now closely resembles that of tidy. Resolves Issue #134.
1998 * Markdown reader: Fixed bug in footnote block parser (pointed out
1999 by Jesse Rosenthal). The problem arose when the blank line
2000 at the end of a footnote block contained indenting spaces.
2002 * Shared: Improved 'normalize' function so it normalizes Spaces too.
2003 In normal form, Space elements only occur to separate two non-Space
2004 elements. So, we never have [Space], or [, ..., Space].
2008 + Improved Arbitrary instance.
2009 + Added timeout for test instances.
2013 + Added section on four-space rule for lists. Resolves Issue #283.
2014 + Clarified optional arguments on math options.
2016 * markdown2pdf: Fixed bug with output file extensions.
2017 Previously `markdown2pdf test.txt -o test.en.pdf` would produce
2018 `test.pdf`, not `test.en.pdf`. Thanks to Paolo Tanimoto for the fix.
2022 * Revised Interact.hs so that it works with the CPP macros
2025 * Revised Setup.hs so that we don't call MakeManPage.hs unless
2026 the man pages are out of date.
2032 * Support for citations using Andrea Rossato's `citeproc-hs` 0.3.
2033 You can now write, for example,
2035 Water is wet [see @doe99, pp. 33-35; also @smith04, ch. 1].
2037 and, when you process your document using `pandoc`, specifying
2038 a citation style using `--csl` and a bibliography using `--bibliography`,
2039 the citation will be replaced by an appropriately formatted
2040 citation, and a list of works cited will be added to the end
2043 This means that you can switch effortlessly between different citation
2044 and bibliography styles, including footnote, numerical, and author-date
2045 formats. The bibliography can be in any of the following formats: MODS,
2046 BibTeX, BibLaTeX, RIS, EndNote, EndNote XML, ISI, MEDLINE, Copac, or JSON.
2047 See the README for further details.
2049 Citations are supported in the markdown reader, using a special
2050 syntax, and in the LaTeX reader, using natbib or biblatex syntax.
2051 (Thanks to Nathan Gass for the natbib and biblatex support.)
2053 * New `textile` reader and writer. Thanks to Paul Rivier for contributing
2054 the `textile` reader, an almost complete implementation of the textile
2055 syntax used by the ruby [RedCloth library](http://redcloth.org/textile).
2058 * New `org` writer, for Emacs Org-mode, contributed by Puneeth Chaganti.
2060 * New `json` reader and writer, for reading and writing a JSON
2061 representation of the native Pandoc AST. These are much faster
2062 than the `native` reader and writer, and should be used for
2063 serializing Pandoc to text. To convert between the JSON representation
2064 and native Pandoc, use `encodeJSON` and `decodeJSON` from
2065 `Text.JSON.Generic`.
2067 * A new `jsonFilter` function in `Text.Pandoc` makes it easy
2068 to write scripts that transform a JSON-encoded pandoc document.
2071 -- removelinks.hs - removes links from document
2073 main = interact $ jsonFilter $ bottomUp removeLink
2074 where removeLink (Link xs _) = Emph xs
2077 To use this to remove links while translating markdown to LaTeX:
2079 pandoc -t json | runghc removelinks.hs | pandoc -f json -t latex
2081 * Attributes are now allowed in inline `Code` elements, for example:
2083 In this code, `ulist ! [theclass "special"] << elts`{.haskell} is...
2085 The attribute syntax is the same as for delimited code blocks.
2086 `Code` inline has an extra argument place for attributes, just like
2087 `CodeBlock`. Inline code will be highlighted in HTML output, if pandoc
2088 is compiled with highlighting support. Resolves Issue #119.
2090 * New `RawBlock` and `RawInline` elements (replacing `RawHtml`,
2091 `HtmlInline`, and `TeX`) provide lots of flexibility in writing
2092 scripts to transform Pandoc documents. Scripts can now change
2093 how each element is rendered in each output format.
2095 * You can now define LaTeX macros in markdown documents, and pandoc
2096 will apply them to TeX math. For example,
2098 \newcommand{\plus}[2]{#1 + #2}
2101 yields `3+4`. Since the macros are applied in the reader, they
2102 will work in every output format, not just LaTeX.
2104 * LaTeX macros can also be used in LaTeX documents (both in math
2105 and in non-math contexts).
2107 * A new `--mathjax` option has been added for displaying
2108 math in HTML using MathJax. Resolves issue #259.
2110 * Footnotes are now supported in the RST reader. (Note, however,
2111 that unlike docutils, pandoc ignores the numeral or symbol used in
2112 the note; footnotes are put in an auto-numbered ordered list.)
2113 Resolves Issue #258.
2115 * A new `--normalize` option causes pandoc to normalize the AST
2116 before writing the document. This means that, for example,
2117 `*hi**there*` will be rendered as `<em>hithere</em>`
2118 instead of `<em>hi</em><em>there</em>`. This is not the default,
2119 because there is a significant performance penalty.
2121 * A new `--chapters` command-line option causes headers
2122 in DocBook, LaTeX, and ConTeXt to start with "chapter" (level one).
2123 Resolves Issue #265.
2125 * In DocBook output, `<chapter>` is now used for top-level
2126 headers if the template contains `<book>`. Resolves Issue #265.
2128 * A new `--listings` option in `pandoc` and `markdown2pdf` causes
2129 the LaTeX writer to use the listings package for code blocks.
2130 (Thanks to Josef Svennigsson for the pandoc patch, and Etienne
2131 Millon for the markdown2pdf patch.)
2133 * `markdown2pdf` now supports `--data-dir`.
2135 * URLs in autolinks now have class "url" so they can be styled.
2137 * Improved prettyprinting in most formats. Lines will be wrapped
2138 more evenly and duplicate blank lines avoided.
2140 * New `--columns` command-line option sets the column width for
2141 line wrapping and relative width calculations for tables.
2143 * Made `--smart` work in HTML, RST, and Textile readers, as well
2146 * Added `--html5` option for HTML5 output.
2148 * Added support for listings package in LaTeX reader
2151 * Added support for simple tables in the LaTeX reader.
2153 * Added support for simple tables in the HTML reader.
2155 * Significant performance improvements in many readers and writers.
2157 [API and program changes]
2159 * Moved `Text.Pandoc.Definition` from the `pandoc` package to a new
2160 auxiliary package, `pandoc-types`. This will make it possible for other
2161 programs to supply output in Pandoc format, without depending on the whole
2164 * Added `Attr` field to `Code`.
2166 * Removed `RawHtml`, `HtmlInline`, and `TeX` elements; added generic
2167 `RawBlock` and `RawInline`.
2169 * Moved generic functions to `Text.Pandoc.Generic`. Deprecated
2170 `processWith`, replacing it with two functions, `bottomUp` and `topDown`.
2171 Removed previously deprecated functions `processPandoc` and `queryPandoc`.
2173 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Builder`, for building `Pandoc` structures.
2175 * `Text.Pandoc` now exports association lists `readers` and `writers`.
2177 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Native`, which exports `readNative`.
2178 `readNative` can now read full pandoc documents, block lists, blocks,
2179 inline lists, or inlines. It will interpret `Str "hi"`
2180 as if it were `Pandoc (Meta [] [] []) [Plain [Str "hi"]]`.
2181 This should make testing easier.
2183 * Removed deprecated `-C/--custom-header` option.
2184 Use `--template` instead.
2186 * `--biblio-file` has been replaced by `--bibliography`.
2187 `--biblio-format` has been removed; pandoc now guesses the format
2188 from the file extension (see README).
2190 * pandoc will treat an argument as a URI only if it has an
2191 `http(s)` scheme. Previously pandoc would treat some
2192 Windows pathnames beginning with `C:/` as URIs.
2194 * The `--sanitize-html` option and the `stateSanitize` field in
2195 `ParserState` have been removed. Sanitization is better done in the
2196 resulting HTML using `xss-sanitize`, which is based on pandoc's
2197 sanitization, but improved.
2199 * pandoc now adds a newline to the end of its output in fragment
2200 mode (= not `--standalone`).
2202 * Added support for `lang` in `html` tag in the HTML template,
2203 so you can do `pandoc -s -V lang=es`, for example.
2205 * `highlightHtml` in `Text.Pandoc.Highlighting` now takes
2206 a boolean argument that selects between "inline" and
2209 * `Text.Pandoc.Writers.RTF` now exports `rtfEmbedImage`.
2210 Images are embedded in RTF output when possible (png, jpeg).
2211 Resolves Issue #275.
2213 * Added `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`. This is better suited for pandoc than the
2214 `pretty` package. Changed all writers that used
2215 `Text.PrettyPrint.HughesPJ` to use `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` instead.
2217 * Rewrote `writeNative` using the new prettyprinting module. It is
2218 now much faster. The output has been made more consistent and compressed.
2219 `writeNative` is also now sensitive to writerStandalone`, and will simply
2220 `print a block list if writerStandalone` is False.
2222 * Removed `Text.Pandoc.Blocks`. `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` allows you to define
2223 blocks and concatenate them, so a separate module is no longer needed.
2225 * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
2227 + Added `writerColumns`, `writerChapters`, and `writerHtml5` to
2229 + Added `normalize`.
2230 + Removed unneeded prettyprinting functions:
2231 `wrapped`, `wrapIfNeeded`, `wrappedTeX`, `wrapTeXIfNeeded`, `hang'`,
2232 `BlockWrapper`, `wrappedBlocksToDoc`.
2233 + Made `splitBy` take a test instead of an element.
2234 + Added `findDataFile`, refactored `readDataFile`.
2235 + Added `stringify`. Rewrote `inlineListToIdentifier` using `stringify`.
2236 + Fixed `inlineListToIdentifier` to treat '\160' as ' '.
2238 * `Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML`:
2240 + Removed `rawHtmlBlock`, `anyHtmlBlockTag`, `anyHtmlInlineTag`,
2241 `anyHtmlTag`, `anyHtmlEndTag`, `htmlEndTag`, `extractTagType`,
2242 `htmlBlockElement`, `htmlComment`
2243 + Added `htmlTag`, `htmlInBalanced`, `isInlineTag`, `isBlockTag`,
2246 * Moved `smartPunctuation` from `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown`
2247 to `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Parsing`, and parameterized it with
2250 * Added `nonspaceChar` to `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
2252 * Ellipses are no longer allowed to contain spaces.
2253 Previously we allowed '. . .', ' . . . ', etc. This caused
2254 too many complications, and removed author's flexibility in
2255 combining ellipses with spaces and periods.
2257 * Allow linebreaks in URLs (treat as spaces). Also, a string of
2258 consecutive spaces or tabs is now parsed as a single space. If you have
2259 multiple spaces in your URL, use `%20%20`.
2261 * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
2263 + Removed `refsMatch`.
2264 + Hid `Key` constructor.
2265 + Removed custom `Ord` and `Eq` instances for `Key`.
2266 + Added `toKey` and `fromKey` to convert between `Key` and `[Inline]`.
2267 + Generalized type on `readWith`.
2269 * Small change in calculation of relative widths of table columns.
2270 If the size of the header > the specified column width, use
2271 the header size as 100% for purposes of calculating
2272 relative widths of columns.
2274 * Markdown writer now uses some pandoc-specific features when `--strict`
2275 is not specified: `\` newline is used for a hard linebreak instead of
2276 two spaces then a newline. And delimited code blocks are used when
2277 there are attributes.
2279 * HTML writer: improved gladTeX output by setting ENV appropriately
2280 for display or inline math (Jonathan Daugherty).
2282 * LaTeX writer: Use `\paragraph`, `\subparagraph` for level 4,5 headers.
2286 + `\label{foo}` and `\ref{foo}` now become `{foo}` instead of `(foo)`.
2287 + `\index{}` commands are skipped.
2289 * Added `fontsize` variable to default LaTeX template.
2290 This makes it easy to set the font size using `markdown2pdf`:
2291 `markdown2pdf -V fontsize=12pt input.txt`.
2293 * Fixed problem with strikeout in LaTeX headers when using
2294 hyperref, by adding a command to the default LaTeX template
2295 that disables `\sout` inside pdf strings. Thanks to Joost Kremers
2298 * The `COLUMNS` environment variable no longer has any effect.
2300 [under-the-hood improvements]
2302 * Pandoc now compiles with GHC 7. (This alone leads to a
2303 significant performance improvement, 15-20%.)
2305 * Completely rewrote HTML reader using tagsoup as a lexer. The
2306 new reader is faster and more accurate. Unlike the
2307 old reader, it does not get bogged down on some input
2308 (Issues #277, 255). And it handles namespaces in tags
2311 * Replaced `escapeStringAsXML` with a faster version.
2313 * Rewrote `spaceChar` and some other parsers in Text.Pandoc.Parsing
2314 for a significant performance boost.
2316 * Improved performance of all readers by rewriting parsers.
2318 * Simplified Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences by using
2319 entity lookup functions from TagSoup.
2321 * `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` now uses the unicode-aware IO functions
2322 from `System.IO` if base >= 4.2. This gives support for
2323 windows line endings on windows.
2325 * Remove duplications in documentation by generating the
2326 pandoc man page from README, using `MakeManPage.hs`.
2328 * README now includes a full description of markdown syntax,
2329 including non-pandoc-specific parts. A new `pandoc_markdown`
2330 man page is extracted from this, so you can look up markdown
2331 syntax by doing `man pandoc_markdown`.
2333 * Completely revised test framework (with help from Nathan Gass).
2334 The new test framework is built when the `tests` Cabal flag is set. It
2335 includes the old integration tests, but also some new unit and quickcheck
2336 tests. Test output has been much improved, and you can now specify a glob
2337 pattern after `cabal test` to indicate which tests should be run;
2338 for example `cabal test citations` will run all the citation tests.
2340 * Added a shell script, `stripansi.sh`, for filtering ANSI control
2341 sequences from test output: `cabal test | ./stripansi.sh > test.log`.
2343 * Added `Interact.hs` to make it easier to use ghci while developing.
2344 `Interact.hs` loads `ghci` from the `src` directory, specifying
2345 all the options needed to load pandoc modules (including
2346 specific package dependencies, which it gets by parsing
2349 * Added `Benchmark.hs`, testing all readers + writers using criterion.
2351 * Added `stats.sh`, to make it easier to collect and archive
2352 benchmark and lines-of-code stats.
2354 * Added upper bounds to all cabal dependencies.
2356 * Include man pages in extra-source-files. This allows users to
2357 install pandoc from the tarball without needing to build the man
2362 * Filenames are encoded as UTF8. Resolves Issue #252.
2364 * Handle curly quotes better in `--smart` mode. Previously, curly quotes
2365 were just parsed literally, leading to problems in some output formats.
2366 Now they are parsed as `Quoted` inlines, if `--smart` is specified.
2367 Resolves Issue #270.
2369 * Text.Pandoc.Parsing: Fixed bug in grid table parser.
2370 Spaces at end of line were not being stripped properly,
2371 resulting in unintended LineBreaks.
2375 + Allow HTML comments as inline elements in markdown.
2376 So, `aaa <!-- comment --> bbb` can be a single paragraph.
2377 + Fixed superscripts with links: `^[link](/foo)^` gets
2378 recognized as a superscripted link, not an inline note followed by
2380 + Fixed regression, making markdown reference keys case-insensitive again.
2381 Resolves Issue #272.
2382 + Properly handle abbreviations (like `Mr.`) at the end of a line.
2383 + Better handling of intraword underscores, avoiding exponential
2384 slowdowns in some cases. Resolves Issue #182.
2385 + Fixed bug in alignments in tables with blank rows in the header.
2389 + Field lists now allow spaces in field names, and
2390 block content in field values. (Thanks to Lachlan Musicman
2391 for pointing out the bug.)
2392 + Definition list items are now always `Para` instead of
2393 `Plain`, matching behavior of `rst2xml.py`.
2394 + In image blocks, the description is parsed properly and
2395 used for the alt attribute, not also the title.
2396 + Skip blank lines at beginning of file. Resolves
2401 + Improved parsing of preamble.
2402 Previously you'd get unexpected behavior on a document that
2403 contained `\begin{document}` in, say, a verbatim block.
2404 + Allow spaces between `\begin` or `\end` and `{`.
2405 + Support `\L` and `\l`.
2406 + Skip comments inside paragraphs.
2410 + Escape strings in `\href{..}`.
2411 + In nonsimple tables, put cells in `\parbox`.
2413 * OpenDocument writer: don't print raw TeX.
2417 + Fixed bug in `Image`. URI was getting unescaped twice!
2418 + Avoid printing extra blank lines at the end if there are
2419 no notes or references.
2421 * LaTeX and ConTeXt: Escape `[` and `]` as `{[}` and `{]}`.
2422 This avoids unwanted interpretation as an optional argument.
2424 * ConTeXt writer: Fixed problem with inline code. Previously
2425 `}` would be rendered `\type{}}`. Now we check the string for '}' and '{'.
2426 If it contains neither, use `\type{}`; otherwise use `\mono{}`
2427 with an escaped version of the string.
2429 * `:` now allowed in HTML tags. Resolves Issue #274.
2435 * New EPUB and HTML Slidy writers. (Issue #122)
2437 - EPUB is a standard ebook format, used in Apple's iBooks for
2438 the iPad and iPhone, Barnes and Noble's nook reader, the Sony
2439 reader, and many other devices.
2440 - Slidy, like S5, is a system for producing HTML+javascript slide
2443 * All input is assumed to be UTF-8, no matter what the locale and ghc
2444 version, and all output is UTF-8. This reverts to pre-1.5 behavior.
2445 Also, a BOM, if present, is stripped from the input.
2447 * Markdown now supports grid tables, whose cells can contain
2448 arbitrary block elements. (Issue #43)
2450 * Sequentially numbered example lists in markdown with `@` marker.
2452 * Markdown table captions can begin with a bare colon and no longer need
2453 to include the English word "table." Also, a caption can now occur
2454 either before or after the table. (Issue #227)
2456 * New command-line options:
2458 - `--epub-stylesheet` allows you to specify a CSS file that will
2459 be used to style your ebook.
2460 - `--epub-metadata` allows you to specify metadata for the ebook.
2461 - `--offline` causes the generated HTML slideshow to include all
2462 needed scripts and stylesheets.
2463 - `--webtex` causes TeX math to be converted to images using the
2464 Google Charts API (unless a different URL is specified).
2465 - `--section-divs` causes div tags to be added around each section
2466 in an HTML document. (Issue #230, 239)
2468 * Default behavior of S5 writer in standalone mode has changed:
2469 previously, it would include all needed scripts and stylesheets
2470 in the generated HTML; now, only links are included unless
2471 the `--offline` option is used.
2473 * Default behavior of HTML writer has changed. Between 1.2 and 1.5,
2474 pandoc would enclose sections in div tags with identifiers on the
2475 div tags, so that the sections can be manipulated in javascript.
2476 This caused undesirable interactions with raw HTML div tags. So,
2477 starting with 1.6, the default is to put the identifiers directly
2478 on the header tags, and not to include the divs. The `--section-divs`
2479 option selects the 1.2-1.5 behavior.
2483 - `HTMLMathMethod`: Added `WebTeX`, removed `MimeTeX`.
2484 - `WriterOptions`: Added `writerUserDataDir`, `writerSourceDirectory`,
2485 `writerEPUBMetadata` fields. Removed `writerIncludeBefore`,
2486 `writerIncludeAfter`.
2487 - Added `headerShift` to `Text.Pandoc.Shared`.
2488 - Moved parsing code and `ParserState` from `Text.Pandoc.Shared`
2489 to a new module, `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`.
2490 - Added `stateHasChapters` to `ParserState`.
2491 - Added `HTMLSlideVariant`.
2492 - Made `KeyTable` a map instead of an association list.
2493 - Added accessors for `Meta` fields (`docTitle`, `docAuthors`,
2495 - `Pandoc`, `Meta`, `Inline`, and `Block` have been given `Ord`
2497 - Reference keys now have a type of their own (`Key`), with its
2498 own `Ord` instance for case-insensitive comparison.
2499 - Added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.EPUB`.
2500 - Added `Text.Pandoc.UUID`.
2501 - Removed `Text.Pandoc.ODT`, added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.ODT`.
2502 Removed `saveOpenDocumentAsODT`, added `writeODT`.
2503 - Added `Text.Pandoc.Writers.Native` and `writeNative`.
2504 Removed `prettyPandoc`.
2505 - Added `Text.Pandoc.UTF8` for portable UTF8 string IO.
2506 - Removed `Text.Pandoc.Writers.S5` and the `writeS5` function.
2507 Moved `s5Includes` to a new module, `Text.Pandoc.S5`.
2508 To write S5, you now use `writeHtml` with `writerSlideVariant`
2509 set to `S5Slides` or `SlidySlides`.
2511 * Template changes. If you use custom templates, please update them,
2512 particularly if you use syntax highlighting with pandoc. The old HTML
2513 templates hardcoded highlighting CSS that will no longer work with
2514 the most recent version of highlighting-kate.
2516 - HTML template: avoid empty meta tag if no date.
2517 - HTML template: Use default highlighting CSS from highlighting-kate
2518 instead of hard-coding the CSS into the template.
2519 - HTML template: insert-before text goes before the title, and
2520 immediately after the <body> tag, as documented. (Issue #241)
2521 - Added slidy and s5 templates.
2522 - Added amssymb to preamble of latex template. (github Issue 1)
2524 * Removed excess newlines at the end of output. Note: because output
2525 will not contain an extra newline, you may need to make adjustments
2526 if you are inserting pandoc's output into a template.
2528 * In S5 and slidy, horizontal rules now cause a new slide, so you
2529 are no longer limited to one slide per section.
2531 * Improved handling of code in man writer. Inline code is now monospace,
2532 not bold, and code blocks now use .nf (no fill) and .IP (indented para).
2534 * HTML reader parses `<tt>` as Code. (Issue #247)
2536 * html+lhs output now contains bird tracks, even when compiled without
2537 highlighting support. (Issue #242)
2539 * Colons are now no longer allowed in autogenerated XML/HTML identifiers,
2540 since they have a special meaning in XML.
2542 * Code improvements in ODT writer. Remote images are now replaced with
2543 their alt text rather than a broken link.
2545 * LaTeX reader improvements:
2547 - Made latex `\section`, `\chapter` parsers more forgiving of
2549 - Parse `\chapter{}` in latex.
2550 - Changed `rawLaTeXInline` to accept `\section`, `\begin`, etc.
2551 - Use new `rawLaTeXInline'` in LaTeX reader, and export `rawLaTeXInline`
2552 for use in markdown reader.
2553 - Fixes bug wherein `\section{foo}` was not recognized as raw TeX
2554 in markdown document.
2556 * LaTeX writer: images are automatically shrunk if they would extend
2557 beyond the page margin.
2559 * Plain, markdown, RST writers now use unicode for smart punctuation.
2561 * Man writer converts math to unicode when possible, as in other writers.
2563 * `markdown2pdf` can now recognize citeproc options.
2565 * Command-line arguments are converted to UTF-8. (Issue #234)
2567 * `Text.Pandoc.TeXMath` has been rewritten to use texmath's parser.
2568 This allows it to handle a wider range of formulas. Also, if a formula
2569 cannot be converted, it is left in raw TeX; formulas are no longer
2570 partially converted.
2572 * Unicode curly quotes are left alone when parsing smart quotes. (Issue
2575 * Cabal file changes:
2577 - Removed parsec < 3 restriction.
2578 - Added 'threaded' flag for architectures where GHC lacks a threaded
2580 - Use 'threaded' only for markdown2pdf; it is not needed for pandoc.
2581 - Require highlighting-kate 0.2.7.
2583 * Use explicit imports from `Data.Generics`. Otherwise we have a
2584 conflict with the 'empty' symbol, introduced in syb >= 0.2. (Issue #237)
2586 * New data files: slidy/slidy.min.js, slidy/slidy.min.css, epub.css.
2592 * Fixed uniqueIdent in Shared so that header identifiers work as
2593 advertized in the README and are are valid XHTML names.
2599 * Fixed treatment of unicode characters in URIs.
2600 + Shared now exports escapeURI and unescapeURI. These handle
2601 UTF8 encoding and decoding as well as URI escaping/unescaping.
2602 + Shared: uri and emailAddress now return a pair of the original
2603 parsed text and the escaped URI (in the latter case, with
2604 the mailto: prefix).
2605 + HTML reader: unsanitaryURI has been modified to allow unicode
2606 high characters in a URI.
2607 + Readers: All link and image URIs are now escaped using
2609 + Markdown and RST writers: unescapeURI is used so that URIs
2610 in these formats are human-readable.
2612 * Setup.hs: Don't assume that the build directory is "dist".
2613 Instead, get it from localBuildInfo.
2615 * OpenDocument writer: Use a Map for stTextStyleAttr.
2616 This avoids duplicates (and invalid xml). Resolves Issue #222.
2622 * HTML writer: Fixed error in math writer (with MathML option)
2623 that caused an infinite loop for unparsable MathML.
2629 * Added --mathml option. When this is selected, pandoc will convert
2630 TeX math into MathML.
2631 + Added data/MathMLinHTML.js, which is included when no URL is
2632 provided for --mathml. This allows MathML to be displayed (in
2633 better browsers) as text/html.
2634 + Removed Text.Pandoc.LaTeXMathML. The module was no longer
2635 necessary; it was replaced by two lines in pandoc.hs.
2636 + Replaced LaTeXMathML.js.commend and LaTeXMathML.js.packed with a
2637 single combined file, LaTeXMathML.js.
2639 * Added --data-dir option.
2640 This specifies a user data directory. If not specified, will default
2641 to ~/.pandoc on unix or Application Data\pandoc on Windows.
2642 Files placed in the user data directory will override system default
2645 * Added Maybe datadir parameter to readDataFile, saveOpenDocumentAsODT,
2646 latexMathMLScript, s5HeaderIncludes, and getDefaultTemplate. If
2647 Nothing, no user directory is searched for an override.
2649 * Added 'plain' output format. This is similar to markdown, but
2650 removes links, pictures, inline formatting, and most anything that
2651 looks even vaguely markupish. The function writePlain is exported by
2652 Text.Pandoc.Writers.Markdown, with which it shares most of its code.
2654 * Allow multi-line titles and authors in meta block.
2655 Titles may span multiple lines, provided continuation lines
2656 begin with a space character. Separate authors may be put on
2657 multiple lines, provided each line after the first begins with
2658 a space character. Each author must fit on one line. Multiple
2659 authors on a single line may still be separated by a semicolon.
2660 Based on a patch by Justin Bogner.
2662 * When given an absolute URI as parameter, pandoc will try to fetch
2663 the content via HTTP. So you can do:
2664 'pandoc -r html -w markdown http://www.fsf.org'
2665 Adds dependency on HTTP.
2667 * Made HTML reader much more forgiving.
2668 + Incorporated idea (from HXT) that an element can be closed
2669 by an open tag for another element.
2670 + Javascript is partially parsed to make sure that a <script>
2671 section is not closed by a </script> in a comment or string.
2672 + More lenient non-quoted attribute values.
2673 Now we accept anything but a space character, quote, or <>.
2674 This helps in parsing e.g. www.google.com!
2675 + Bare & signs are now parsed as a string. This is a common
2677 + Skip a bare < in malformed HTML.
2679 * Removed html2markdown and hsmarkdown.
2680 + html2markdown is no longer needed, since you can now pass URI
2681 arguments to pandoc and directly convert web pages. (Note,
2682 however, that pandoc assumes the pages are UTF8. html2markdown
2683 made an attempt to guess the encoding and convert them.)
2684 + hsmarkdown is pointless -- a large executable that could be
2685 replaced by 'pandoc --strict'.
2687 * In most writers, an image in a paragraph by itself is now rendered
2688 as a figure, with the alt text as the caption. (Texinfo, HTML, RST,
2689 MediaWiki, Docbook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, HTML.) Other images are
2692 * Depend on extensible-exceptions. This allows pandoc to be compiled
2695 * Added --base-header-level option. For example, --base-header-level=2
2696 will change level 1 headers to level 2, level 2 to level 3, etc.
2697 Closes Debian #563416.
2699 * Incomplete support for RST tables (simple and grid).
2700 Thanks to Eric Kow. Colspans and rowspans not yet supported.
2702 * Added accessors (docTitle, docAuthors, docDate) to Meta type.
2704 * MediaWiki writer: format links with relative URLs as wikilinks.
2705 The new rule: If the link target is an absolute URL, an external
2706 link is created. Otherwise, a wikilink is created.
2708 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Export uniqueIdent, and don't allow tilde in
2709 identifier. Note: This may break links to sections that involve
2712 * Markdown(+lhs) reader: handle "inverse bird tracks."
2713 Inverse bird tracks (<) are used for haskell example code that is not
2714 part of the literate Haskell program. Resolves Issue #211.
2717 + Recognize '\ ' (interword space).
2718 + Recognize nonbreaking space '~'.
2719 + Ignore \section, \pdfannot, \pdfstringdef. Ignore alt title in
2720 section headers. Don't treat \section as inline LaTeX.
2721 Resolves Issue #202.
2722 + LaTeX reader: allow any special character to be escaped.
2723 Resolves Issue #221.
2724 + LaTeX reader: treat \paragraph and \subparagraph as level 4, 5
2725 headers. Resolves Issue #207.
2727 * Use template variables for include-before/after.
2728 + These options now imply -s; previously they worked also in fragment
2730 + Users can now adjust position of include-before and include-after
2731 text in the templates.
2732 + Default position of include-before moved back (as it was before 1.4)
2733 before table of contents.
2734 + Resolves Issue #217.
2736 * Don't print an empty table header: (all writers).
2737 Resolves Issue #210.
2739 * HTML, Docbook writer: Use tbody, thead, and cols in tables.
2741 * HTML writer: Don't include TOC div if table of contents is empty.
2743 * Markdown writer: Fixed citations.
2744 Previously the markdown writer printed raw citation codes, e.g.
2745 [geach1970], rather than the expanded citations provided by
2746 citeproc, e.g. (Geach 1970). Now it prints the expanded citations.
2747 This means that the document produced can be processed as a markdown
2748 document without citeproc. Thanks to dsanson for reporting, and
2749 Andrea Rossato for the patch.
2751 * Improved and simplified title block in context template.
2752 Previously it caused an error if there was no title.
2753 This method should also be easier for users to customize.
2756 + Treat p., pp., sec., ch., as abbreviations in smart mode.
2757 + Disallow blank lines in inline code span.
2758 + Allow footnotes to be indented < 4 spaces.
2759 This fixes a regression. A test case has been added.
2760 + Escape spaces in URLs as %20. Previously they were incorrectly
2761 escaped as +, which is appropriate only for the query part of
2762 a URL. Resolves Issue #220.
2763 + Require two spaces after capital letter + period for list item.
2764 Otherwise "E. coli" starts a list. This might change the semantics
2765 of some existing documents, since previously the two-space
2766 requirement was only enforced when the second word started
2767 with a capital letter. But it is consistent with the existing
2768 documentation and follows the principle of least surprise.
2769 Resolves Issue #212.
2771 * LaTeX template: redefine labelwidth when using enumerate package.
2772 Otherwise the list labels (numbers) often extend past the left
2773 margin, which looks bad.
2775 * Mediawiki writer: Don't print a "== Notes ==" header before
2776 references. This is too English-centric. Writers can provide their
2777 own header at the end of the document.
2779 * Promoted mediawiki headers. '= head =' is now level 1, '== head =='
2780 level 2, etc. This seems to be correct; it's only by convention
2781 that wikipedia articles have level 2 headers at most.
2782 Patch due to Eric Kow.
2784 * RunTests.hs: Set LANG to a UTF-8 locale. Use 'pandoc --data-dir=' so
2785 data files don't need to have been installed. This removes the need to
2789 + Handle spaces before <html>. Resolves Issue #216.
2790 + Be forgiving in parsing a bare list within a list.
2791 The following is not valid xhtml, but the intent is clear:
2794 <ol><li>sub</li></ol>
2797 We'll treat the <ol> as if it's in a <li>. Resolves Issue #215.
2799 * Updated INSTALL instructions. cabal method is now promoted.
2801 * Updated markdown2pdf man page. It no longer says all pandoc options
2804 * README/man pages: Removed advice to pipe through tidy before HTML
2805 reader. This is obsolete, now that we have a forgiving HTML parser.
2807 * LaTeX writer: set numbersections template variable, so
2808 the section numbering options work again.
2810 * Removed obsolete Makefile.
2812 * Website: renamed index.txt.in -> index.txt.
2814 * New batch file to make-windows-installer.
2815 + Removed old Makefile.windows
2816 + Added make-windows-installer.bat
2817 + Modified default installer name in pandoc-setup.iss
2819 * Removed freebsd and macports directories.
2820 They are no longer up to date.
2823 + Made man page building sensitive to build verbosity.
2824 + Improved detection of highlighting support in test hook.
2825 + Install wrapper scripts into cabal bin directory.
2826 + Also simplified installManpages.
2827 + Setup.hs: install manpages to mandir. Code borrowed from darcs.
2829 * Changed default of writerXeTeX to False.
2831 * HTML writer: don't include empty UL if --toc but no sections.
2832 Resolves Issue #199.
2836 + If book, report, or memoir documentclass, use \chapter{}
2837 for first-level headers. Otherwise use \section{}.
2838 + Removed stLink, link template variable. Reason: we now always
2839 include hyperref in the template.
2843 + Only show \author if there are some.
2844 + Always include hyperref package. It is used not just for links but
2845 for toc, section heading bookmarks, footnotes, etc. Also added
2846 unicode=true on hyperref options.
2848 * markdown2pdf: always do at least two runs. hyperref bookmarks
2851 * cabal file: Removed unneeded dependency on template-haskell.
2853 * Windows installer - fixed bug in data file locations.
2854 Resolves Issue #197.
2856 * Deprecated --custom-header in documentation.
2857 Removed old "Custom Headers" section in README.
2863 * Pandoc will now compile with either GHC 6.10 or 6.12.
2864 + Don't use System.IO.UTF8 when compiling with 6.12
2865 + Use -fno-warn-unused-do-bind option when compiling with 6.12
2867 * Replaced old headers with templates. Now users have much more
2868 control over the way documents appear in --standalone mode,
2869 and writer code is simplified. Resolves Issues #59, 147.
2870 Every effort has been made to retain backwards compatibilty.
2871 So, the --custom-header option should still work as before.
2873 + Added Text.Pandoc.Templates. This provides functions for
2874 retrieving default templates and for rendering templates.
2875 + System templates (in the pandoc data directory) can be
2876 overridden by user templates in $HOME/.pandoc/templates.
2877 + Removed Text.Pandoc.DefaultHeaders.
2878 + Removed data/headers directory.
2879 + Added templates directory.
2880 + Added writerTemplate and writerVariables fields to WriterOptions.
2881 + Removed writerTitlePrefix, writerHeader fields from WriterOptions.
2882 + Changed --print-default-header to --print-default-template.
2883 + Added --template option.
2884 + Added -V/--variable option to set custom template variables.
2886 * Pandoc no longer requires Template Haskell. Resolves Issue #186.
2888 + Removed need for TH in ODT module. Instead get reference.odt from
2889 data file at run time.
2890 + Removed TH dependency from S5 module. S5 module now exports
2891 s5HeaderIncludes, which pandoc.hs includes if writer is s5 and
2893 + Refactored LaTeXMathML not to use TH.
2895 * Meta is now Meta [Inline] [[Inline]] [Inline] rather than
2896 Meta [Inline] [String] String. Authors and date in Meta are now lists
2897 of Inline elements rather than raw strings. This means that they can
2898 be formatted and can include footnotes. NOTE: This may be a breaking
2899 change for those using pandoc as a library.
2901 * Added readDataFile to Text.Pandoc.Shared. This retrieves
2902 a data file from the user pandoc data directory (~/.pandoc
2903 on unix), or, if not found there, from the system data
2904 directory ($CABALDIR/shared/pandoc-VERSION/). All data
2905 files, including templates, LaTeXMathML.js, s5 styles,
2906 and reference.odt, can be overridden by the user.
2908 * s5 files moved from data/ui/default to s5/default.
2910 * Use unicode instead of entities in HTML and XML output. Resolves
2913 * Prettier HTML footnote references: put anchor inside sup,
2914 instead of other way. Resolves Issue #191. Thanks to
2917 * Added --xetex option to pandoc and markdown2pdf.
2918 If --xetex is specified, pandoc produces latex suitable for
2919 processing by xelatex, and markdown2pdf uses xelatex to create
2920 the PDF. Resolves Issue #185.
2922 * RTF writer: multiple authors now occupy multiple paragraphs rather
2923 than using a line break.
2925 * Man writer: now the "--after-body" will come after the "AUTHORS"
2926 section, whereas before it would come before it. This is a
2927 slight break from backwards compatibility.
2929 * Added --reference-odt option, so users may customize the styles
2930 used in pandoc-generated ODT files. Users may also place a
2931 default reference.odt in the ~\.pandoc directory.
2934 + Indented and line-broke styles.xml so it can be modified more easily.
2935 + Omitted some unnecessary style declarations.
2936 + Don't wrap text in OpenDocument writer. The tags are too long, making
2937 wrapping ugly and pointless.
2939 * LaTeX reader: use \\ to separate multiple authors.
2941 * Markdown reader: use ; as separator between authors.
2942 This allows you to use ',' within author names: e.g. "John Jones, Jr."
2944 * S5 writer: use linebreak to separate authors in title page.
2946 * RST reader: Allow :: before lhs code block. The RST spec requires the
2947 :: before verbatim blocks. This :: should not be treated as literal
2948 colons. Resolves Issue #189.
2950 * Documented pandoc 1.3's new definition list syntax in README.
2951 (An oversight in the last release.)
2954 + interpret ! in a log as an error line.
2955 + --toc now works properly.
2957 * Changes in RunTests.hs:
2958 + Use the Diff library rather than a local copy of Diff.hs.
2959 (This vastly increases performance.) This change means that 'cabal
2960 test' presupposes that the Diff library is installed.
2961 + Removed tests/Diff.hs from cabal file.
2962 + Changed RunTests to use local environment. We need at least HOME, so
2963 pandoc can find its data directory.
2965 * Updated windows installer to install data files in the app directory.
2967 * Windows installer now installs portable wrappers hsmarkdown and
2974 * Added --id-prefix option (Issue #41). This adds a prefix to all
2975 automatically generated HTML identifiers, which helps prevent
2976 duplicate identifiers when you're generating a fragment (say a blog
2979 * Added --indented-code-classes option. This specifies classes
2980 to use for indented code blocks. (Patch due to buttock; Issue #87.)
2982 * --number-sections now affects HTML output as well as ConTeXt and LaTeX
2985 * Improved syntax for markdown definition lists (Issue #24).
2986 Definition lists are now more compatible with PHP Markdown Extra.
2987 + You can have multiple definitions for a term (but still not
2989 + Multi-block definitions no longer need a column before each block
2990 (indeed, this will now cause multiple definitions).
2991 + The marker no longer needs to be flush with the left margin,
2992 but can be indented at or two spaces. Also, ~ as well as :
2993 can be used as the marker (this suggestion due to David
2995 + There can now be a blank line between the term and the
2998 * Better looking simple tables. Resolves Issue #180.
2999 + Markdown reader: simple tables are now given column widths of 0.
3000 + Column width of 0 is interpreted as meaning: use default column width.
3001 + Writers now include explicit column width information only
3002 for multiline tables. (Exception: RTF writer, which requires
3003 column widths. In this case, columns are given equal widths,
3004 adding up to the text width.)
3005 + Simple tables should now look better in most output formats.
3007 * Allow markdown tables without headers (Issue #50).
3008 The new syntax is described in README. Also allow optional line of
3009 dashes at bottom of simple tables.
3011 * Compensate for width of final table column (Issue #144).
3013 * Treat a backslash followed by a newline as a hard line break
3014 in markdown. Resolves Issue #154. This is a nice alternative
3015 to markdown's "invisible" way of indicating hardline breaks
3016 using lines that end with two spaces.
3018 * Improved performance of markdown reader by ~10% by eliminating the
3019 need for a separate parsing pass for notes. Raw notes are now stored
3020 on the first pass (which parses references), then parsed when the
3021 note is inserted into the AST. The stateNotes field in ParserState
3022 is now a list of [(String, String)] pairs instead of [(String,
3025 * In markdown reader, treat 4 or more * or _ in a row as literal
3026 text. (Trying to parse long strings of * or _ as strong or emph
3027 leads to exponential performance problems.)
3029 * Markdown reader: Use + rather than %20 for spaces in URLs.
3031 * Fixed htmlComment parser, adding a needed 'try'.
3033 * Don't print raw HTML in man output.
3035 * Allow . _ and ~ in header identifiers.
3037 * Specially mark code blocks that were "literate" in the input.
3038 They can then be treated differently in the writers. This allows
3039 authors to distinguish bits of the literate program they are writing
3040 from source code examples, even if the examples are marked as
3041 Haskell for highlighting. (Issue #174.)
3043 * Modified html+lhs output to use "haskell" highlighter instead
3044 of "literateHaskell". The highlighting module now adds bird tracks
3045 after highlighting (for HTML output), if the code block has the
3046 "literate" class. This gives better results, because kate's
3047 haskell highlighter is much better than the literateHaskell
3050 * Fixed handling of footnotes in titles (HTML) and headers (LaTeX).
3053 * Support for "..code-block" directive in RST reader. Not core
3054 RST, but used in Sphinx for code blocks annotated with syntax
3055 information. Thanks to Luke Plant for the patch.
3057 * Added "head" to list of block-level HTML tags. Resolves
3060 * Added stripTags to Text.Pandoc.XML. This is used in the HTML writer.
3062 * Set utf-8 encoding in texinfo headers.
3064 * Docbook writer: add ids to sections. Use link for internal links.
3067 * Blank lines after lists in MediaWiki writer.
3069 * Properly handle commented-out list items in markdown.
3070 Resolves Issue #142. Example:
3078 * Changed heuristic in compactify. compactify has to decide whether a
3079 Para that ends a list is a Para intentionally, or just because of
3080 the blank lines at the end of every list. In the latter case the
3081 Para is turned to a Plain. The old heuristic was: change final Para
3082 to Plain iff the other items all end in Plain. This produces bad
3083 results when, for example, an item contains just a Plain and an HTML
3084 comment, as it does in the list above. The new heuristic: change
3085 final Para to Plain iff the other items don't contain a Para.
3087 * Added % as an rst underline character. Resolves Issue #173.
3089 * Fix inline math parser so that \$ is allowed in math.
3090 Resolves Issue #169.
3092 * Translate \int (integral) into unicode when using unicode math
3093 method. Resolves Issue #177.
3095 * markdown2pdf.hs improvements:
3096 + Use System.IO.UTF8.
3097 + Print error messages on last attempt.
3098 + Do not create a backup when overwriting a PDF (Issue #166).
3099 + Accept --longopt=val options.
3100 + Added man/man1/markdown2pdf.1 to extra-tmp-files in cabal, so that
3101 it is properly cleaned.
3103 * Added haddock comments warning that readers assume \n line endings.
3105 * Updated COPYRIGHT file.
3107 * Makefile: Changed EXECSBASE so it doesn't pull in hsmarkdown &
3108 markdown2pdf. Otherwise strip tries to strip shell scripts when you
3109 install using 'make'.
3111 * Changed Makefile so it doesn't build Haskell wrappers.
3113 * Fixed Makefile so it doesn't try to build man pages in build-doc.
3115 * Install pcre3.dll in Windows install script; this allows us to
3116 package a version of pandoc with highlighting support.
3122 * Fixed regression with --preserveTabs. Brought back optPreserveTabs.
3123 The trick of setting tabStop to 0 to mean "preserve tabs" had a bad
3124 side effect: strings of 0 spaces were interpreted as indentation.
3125 So, with --preserve-tabs, unindented paragraphs were treated as
3126 code. Resolves Issue #138.
3128 * HTML writer: wrap sections in divs. Resolves Issue #70.
3130 + hierarchicalize has been rationalized; it builds a hierarchical
3131 representation of the document from the headers, and simultaneously
3132 gives each section a unique identifier based on the heading title.
3133 + Identifiers are now attached to the divs rather than
3134 to the headers themselves.
3135 + Table of content backlinks go to the beginning of the table, rather
3136 than to the section reference that was clicked.
3137 + Code for constructing identifiers has been moved to Text.Pandoc.Shared
3138 from the HTML writer, since it is now consumed only by
3140 + In --strict mode, pandoc just prints bare headings, as before
3141 (unless --toc has been specified).
3142 + In s5 output, it does not wrap sections in divs, as that seems to
3143 confuse the s5 javascript.
3145 * Man writer: break lines at end of each sentence. groff expects this
3146 and treats '.' and '?' differently when followed by line ending as
3147 opposed to ordinary space. Also, don't escape periods. Instead, use
3148 zero-width character \& to avoid unwanted interpretation of periods
3149 at start of line. Resolves Issue #148.
3151 * Markdown writer: Added '#' and '>' to list of characters to be
3152 escaped in markdown output. Removed '<', as it is not an officially
3153 escapable character. This partially resolves Issue #96.
3155 * Make --smart the default for man output format. Otherwise we have
3156 trouble dividing lists of endlines into sentences.
3158 * DocBook writer: Use language attribute to indicate source language
3163 + Allow # to continue list, even if the list was started with an
3164 explicit marker. For example:
3169 Resolves Issue #140.
3170 + Allow continuation lines in line blocks. Also added test cases for
3171 line blocks for RST reader. Resolves Issue #149.
3172 + Allow explicit links with spaces in URL: `link <to this>`_
3174 * Improved LaTeX reader's coverage of math modes. Remove displaymath*
3175 (which is not in LaTeX) and recognize all the amsmath environments
3176 that are alternatives to eqnarray, namely equation, equation*,
3177 gather, gather*, gathered, multline, multline*, align, align*,
3178 alignat, alignat*, aligned, alignedat, split. Resolves Issue #103.
3179 Thanks to shreevatsa.public for the patch.
3183 + Allow -, _, :, . in markdown attribute names. These are legal in
3184 XML attribute names.
3185 + Use non-breaking spaces in abbreviations.
3186 + Markdown reader: improved efficiency of abbreviation parsing.
3187 Instead of a separate abbrev parser, we just check for
3188 abbreviations each time we parse a string. This gives a huge
3189 performance boost with -S. Resolves Issue #141.
3191 * Improved efficiency of shared parsers: hexNum, htmlComment,
3192 whitespace, indentSpaces.
3194 * Export HTMLMathMethod in Text.Pandoc.
3196 * Export languagesByExtension in Text.Pandoc.Highlighting.
3198 * Added new Haskell version of markdown2pdf, due to
3199 Paulo Tanimoto. This should be more portable than the old
3202 * Made 'pandoc -v' more explicit about compiler options.
3203 Resolves Issue #139.
3205 * pandoc.hs: Made --strict compatible with --standalone, --toc.
3207 * Use Paths_pandoc to get version number, instead of hard-coding it
3208 into Text/Pandoc.hs.
3214 * Added support for literate Haskell. lhs support is triggered by
3215 '+lhs' suffixes in formats. For example, 'latex+lhs' is literate
3216 Haskell LaTeX. '.lhs' files are treated by default as literate
3219 + Added stateLiterateHaskell to parser state.
3220 + Added parser for lhsCodeBlock to Markdown, RST, LaTeX readers.
3221 + Added parser for |inline lhs| to LaTeX reader.
3222 + Added writerLiterateHaskell to WriterOptions.
3223 + Added lhs support to Markdown, RST, LaTeX, HTML writers.
3224 + Added definition of code environment to LaTeX header.
3225 + Added tests (run only if highlighting support compiled in).
3226 + Documented lhs features in man page and README.
3228 * In Text.Pandoc.Definition, added processWith, processWithM,
3229 and queryWith, and deprecated processPandoc and queryPandoc
3230 for these more general functions.
3232 * Fixed bug in mediawiki writer: improper closing tags in tables.
3233 Thanks to Benct Philip Jonsson for reporting the bug.
3235 * Added --email-obfuscation option.
3237 + Added writer option for email obfuscation.
3238 + Implemented email obfuscation options in HTML writer.
3239 + Added option to option parser.
3240 + Documented in README and pandoc man page.
3241 + Resolves Issue #97.
3243 * LaTeX writer: fixed bug with empty table cells.
3244 Resolves Issue #107. Thanks to rodja.trappe for the patch.
3246 * Fixed bug with header spacing in Markdown and RST writers.
3247 A null header (Meta [] [] []) should not cause a blank line
3248 at the beginning of output. But a blank line is needed between
3249 a non-null header and the main text.
3251 * Markdown reader: Relax spacing rules for $$ in display math. Now
3252 space and newlines are allowed after the opening $$ and before the
3253 closing $$. However, the display math cannot contain an entirely
3254 blank line. Resolves Issue #105.
3256 * Markdown reader: Gobble space after Plain blocks containing only
3257 raw html inline. Otherwise following header blocks are not parsed
3258 correctly, since the parser sees blank space before them. Resolves
3261 * Markdown reader: Allow " as well as '' to end a latex double-quote.
3263 * Conditionally depend on syb and base >= 4 if ghc >= 6.10.
3264 Resolves Issue #109.
3266 * Fixed problems in RST and markdown output due to bug in pretty-1.0.1.0
3268 + Added hang' function to Text.Pandoc.Shared; this will be used instead
3269 of hang, which doesn't work properly in pretty-1.0.1.0. When pretty
3270 is upgraded, we can go back to hang.
3271 See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.general/16687
3272 + Use hang' (and some different techniques) in RST and markdown writers.
3273 Some output is now a bit different.
3275 * Brought citeproc support up to date for citeproc-hs-0.2.
3276 (Patch by Andrea Rossato.)
3278 * Moved all haskell source to src subdirectory. Renamed Main.hs to
3281 * Rewrote hsmarkdown in Haskell for portability (src/hsmarkdown.hs).
3282 For now, keeping the old shell script too.
3284 * Added TemplateHaskell to Extensions for executable, removed
3285 -threaded for library. Thanks to duncan.coutts for the bug report.
3286 Resolves Issue #121.
3288 * Moved some Extra-Source-Files to Data-Files.
3290 * Moved tabFilter to Shared.
3292 * In pandoc.hs, removed optPreserveTabs; instead, tabstop of 0 means
3295 * Minor code cleanup based on hlint suggestions.
3303 + Changed date on copyright message in Main.hs.
3304 + Have the '-v' option print syntax highlighting languages
3305 separated by commas, and wrapped in lines, instead of in five
3308 * Added --jsmath option. Resolves Issue #68.
3310 + Added --jsmath option to Main.hs
3311 + Added JsMath to HTMLMathMethod in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3312 + Handle math appropriately in HTML writer when JsMath selected.
3313 + Documented the option in README and man page.
3315 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Changed compactify to use a better heuristic
3316 for tight and loose lists. Final Para is changed to Plain if all
3317 other list items *end* with a Plain block. Addresses Issue #99.
3321 + Added colons to protocols in unsanitaryURI. Closes Issue #88.
3322 + HTML reader: Don't interpret contents of <pre> blocks as markdown.
3323 Added rawVerbatimBlock parser. Resolves Issue #94.
3327 + Allow URLs with spaces in them in links and references, but escape
3329 + Allow blank space at the end of horizontal rules.
3331 * RST reader: Modified 'unknownDirective' parser to handle comment
3332 blocks correctly, and added tests for comment blocks. Resolves Issue
3333 #86. Closes Debian Bug #500662.
3337 + Include classes on tr elements in HTML output:
3338 "header", "odd", "even". This allows tables to be styled with
3339 lines in alternating colors. Resolves Issue #91.
3340 + Enclose all LaTeXMathML bits in <span class="LaTeX">.
3341 This prevents parts of the document that are not math from being
3342 interpreted as math by LaTeXMathML.js.
3344 * OpenDocument and ODT writers: Added support for HorizontalRule elements,
3345 which were formerly ignored. Resolves Issue #95.
3347 * Text.Pandoc.Shared: Modified wrappedTeX to eliminate the line break
3348 between a footnote and immediately following nonspace characters in
3349 LaTeX and ConTeXt output. (This gets interpreted as a space, which
3350 is not desired in cases like "text^[note]---".) Resolves Issue #93.
3352 * Windows installer: Don't require admin privileges to run
3353 installer. Modified pandoc-setup.iss, and changed modpath.iss to
3354 modify HKCU path if user lacks admin privileges. Also fixed case
3355 where oldpath is empty (previously this led to the new path
3356 beginning with a semicolon).
3358 * Updated INSTALL instructions for Arch packages and OS X install using
3361 * Removed the (now unneeded) debian directory.
3362 Removed empty Codec and System directories.
3364 * Moved odt-styles/ to data/. Removed unneeded variable in Makefile.
3366 * Modified Setup.hs so that the "test" target returns an error status
3367 when tests fail, and "build" returns a success status if
3368 the build succeeds. Resolves Issue #100.
3370 * Added BUGS to files in tarball.
3377 * Removed spurious reference to pdf output format from pandoc(1) man page.
3383 * Added new OpenDocument writer.
3385 * Added support for SmallCaps inline element.
3387 * Added support for integrating pandoc with citeproc-hs.
3389 + Added Cite element to definition and writers.
3390 + Added Text.Pandoc.Biblio module
3391 + Note: This support is included only if the 'citeproc'
3392 Cabal configuration flag is set.
3394 * Made Pandoc data structure an instance of Typeable.
3395 Added new processPandoc and queryPandoc functions, to query
3396 or transform matching elements in a Pandoc structure.
3400 * Added new Texinfo writer.
3404 * Changes to Texinfo writer:
3406 + No space between paragraph and following @verbatim (provides more
3407 pleasing appearance in text formats)
3408 + Blank line consistently after list environments.
3410 + Use @code instead of @verb for inline code (this solves the character
3411 escaping problem for texi2dvi and texi2pdf).
3412 + Added news of Texinfo writer to README.
3413 + Added Texinfo to list of formats in man page, and removed extra 'groff'.
3414 + Added texi & texinfo extensions to Main.hs, and fixed bug in determining
3415 default output extension.
3416 + Modified disallowedInNode in Texinfo writer to correct list of disallowed characters.
3418 * Added tests for OpenDocument writer.
3420 * Added ODT writer (using zip-archive library to package output of
3421 OpenDocument writer). Added odt-styles directory with default ODT styles.
3423 * Added new mediawiki writer and tests.
3425 * Markdown reader: Added support for delimited code blocks, with optional
3426 syntax highlighting using highlighting-kate (if the 'highlighting'
3427 configuration option is selected).
3429 + Currently highlighting is supported only in the HTML writer.
3430 + Delimited code blocks can have attributes; using the language name as
3431 class triggers highlighting.
3432 + New Attributes parameter in CodeBlock structure.
3433 + --version now indicates whether syntax highlighting support is compiled
3434 in, and prints a list of supported languages
3436 * Removed debian directory. Pandoc is no longer a native debian package.
3438 * Changes to build process: pandoc can now be built from the repository
3439 using Cabal. No unix tools are needed (so, pandoc can be built on Windows
3442 + Include shell scripts themselves in repo, rather than generating from wrappers.
3443 Removed wrappers directory and wrappers Makefile target.
3444 + Text/Pandoc/ASCIIMathML.hs, Text/Pandoc/DefaultHeaders.hs,
3445 and Text/Pandoc/Writers/S5.hs are no longer built in Makefile
3446 from templates in the templates/ directory. Instead, they use template
3447 haskell to read data at compile time from the relevant files in data/.
3448 Template haskell functions go in a new module, Text.Pandoc.TH.
3449 + man pages are now generated in Setup.hs hook, not by Makefile
3450 + Makefile 'tarball' target now calls Cabal's 'sdist'
3451 + Added "Extra-Source-Files" to pandoc.cabal, so sdist contains everything needed
3452 + Added "Build-Type" field to pandoc.cabal to avoid warning.
3453 + Added to "Extra-source-files" and "Extra-tmp-files" in pandoc.cabal,
3454 so 'sdist' and 'clean' will work properly.
3455 + Setup.hs now generates man pages in a postbuild hook.
3456 + Added dependency-checking to Setup.hs, so it only rebuilds things
3457 that need rebuilding.
3458 + Added 'library' and 'executable' configuration flags.
3459 Cabal can now be told to build just the library or just the executable.
3460 + CABALOPTS may now be specified with 'make' to pass Cabal configuration flags.
3461 For example: CABALOPTS=-fhighlighting make
3463 * Rewrote test suite so it doesn't depend on perl or unix tools.
3465 + Replaced old runtests.pl with a Haskell script RunTests.hs.
3466 + Added Diff.hs module to be used by RunTests.hs instead of unix 'diff'.
3467 + Added test hook to Setup.hs, so tests may be run from cabal.
3468 + Changed Makefile's 'test' target to run tests via cabal.
3469 + Removed old generate.sh.
3470 + Since we no longer have 'sed' to filter out raw HTML sections
3471 from the docbook writer test, or raw LaTeX sections from the
3472 context writer test, we now just include these sections.
3473 They can be taken out if it is necessary to process the files.
3474 + Updated latex and context writer tests to remove extra spaces
3476 + Added a markdown table reader test.
3477 + Added markdown-reader-more.txt to test suite, for additional test cases
3478 for raw ConTeXt environments and more.
3480 * Compatibility fixes for CPP, Cabal, and haddock:
3482 + Use CPP in "Extensions" field in pandoc.cabal.
3483 + Removed use of backslash string continuations in source files.
3485 * Removed pandoc.cabal.ghc66. We now require Cabal >= 1.2, GHC >= 6.8,
3488 * Require parsec < 3.
3489 The compatibility module in parsec 3.0.0 gives far worse performance than
3490 parsec 2.1. Eventually pandoc will be upgraded to use the new bytestring
3491 version of parsec, and then we'll go to parsec 3.0.0.
3493 * Removed Text.Regex dependencies by rewriting using plain Haskell
3494 (Text.Pandoc.Writers.RTF, Text.Pandoc.Writers.HTML, Main.hs)
3496 * Moved Text.Pandoc.Writers.DefaultHeaders -> Text.Pandoc.DefaultHeaders.
3500 + Added 'configure' as dependency of 'uninstall-all'.
3501 (It uses the Cabal build program.)
3502 + Makefile: only use --with-hc-pkg if GHC_PKG is defined.
3503 Note that Cabal will automatically choose the ghc-pkg appropriate
3504 for the compiler selected, so normally specifying GHC by itself
3507 * Removed Text.Pandoc.UTF8 module; instead, depend on utf8-string and use
3508 its IO and conversion functions.
3510 * Added -Wall to ghc-options in pandoc.cabal. Cleaned up modules so that
3511 everything is -Wall clean.
3513 + Added pragma to HTML writer to avoid deprecation warning for use of "start" attribute.
3514 + Added pragma to Text/Pandoc/Shared.hs to get rid of "orphan instance" warnings.
3515 (These are caused by the Lift instance for ByteString.)
3517 * Changed the comment used to replace unsafe HTML if sanitize-html option
3520 * Made -c/--css option repeatable on the command line (like -H, -A, -B).
3522 * Moved XML-formatting functions to new unexported module Text.Pandoc.XML.
3524 * Escape '\160' as " ", not " " in XML.
3525 "nbsp" isn't a predefined XML entity.
3527 * Fixed bug in RST reader, which would choke on: "p. one\ntwo\n".
3528 Added some try's in ordered list parsers.
3530 * Man writer: don't escape " as \".
3532 * Allow newline before URL in markdown link references. Resolves Issue #81.
3533 Added tests for this issue in new "markdown-reader-more" tests.
3534 Changed RunTests.hs to run these tests.
3536 * Support for display math. Resolves Issue #47.
3538 + Added a DisplayMath/InlineMath selector to Math inlines.
3539 + Markdown parser yields DisplayMath for $$...$$.
3540 + LaTeX parser yields DisplayMath when appropriate. Removed
3541 mathBlock parsers, since the same effect is achieved by the math
3542 inline parsers, now that they handle display math.
3543 + Writers handle DisplayMath as appropriate for the format.
3544 + Modified tests accordingly; added new tests for display math.
3546 * Use LaTeXMathML instead of ASCIIMathML. LaTeXMathML is closer
3547 to LaTeX in its display of math, and supports many non-math LaTeX environments.
3549 + Changed -m option to use LaTeXMathML rather than ASCIIMathML.
3550 + Modified HTML writer to print raw TeX when LaTeXMathML is
3551 being used instead of suppressing it.
3552 + Removed ASCIIMathML files from data/ and added LaTeXMathML.
3553 + Replaced ASCIIMathML with LaTeXMathML in source files.
3554 + Modified README and pandoc man page source.
3555 + Added --latexmathml option (kept --asciimathml as a synonym
3556 for backwards compatibility)
3558 * Markdown reader: Parse setext headers before atx headers.
3562 parsed by Markdown.pl as an H1 header with contents "# hi".
3564 * Markdown reader: Treat "mixed" lists the same way as Markdown.pl does.
3565 The marker on the first list item determines the type of the whole
3566 list. Thus, a list like
3570 gets parsed as a single ordered list. (Previous versions of pandoc
3571 treated this as an ordered list with an unordered sublist.)
3573 * Markdown smart typography:
3575 + Em dashes no longer eat surrounding whitespace. Resolves Issue #69.
3576 + Use nonbreaking spaces after known abbreviations in markdown parser.
3577 Thus, for example, "Mr. Brown" comes out as "Mr.~Brown" in LaTeX, and does
3578 not produce a sentence-separating space. Resolves Issue #75.
3580 * Markdown writer: Print unicode \160 literally, rather than as .
3582 * Treat '\ ' in (extended) markdown as nonbreaking space.
3583 Print nonbreaking space appropriately in each writer (e.g. ~ in LaTeX).
3585 * The '--sanitize-html' option now examines URIs in markdown links
3586 and images, and in HTML href and src attributes. If the URI scheme
3587 is not on a whitelist of safe schemes, it is rejected. The main point
3588 is to prevent cross-site scripting attacks using 'javascript:' URIs.
3589 See http://www.mail-archive.com/markdown-discuss@six.pairlist.net/msg01186.html
3590 and http://ha.ckers.org/xss.html. Resolves Issue #62.
3594 + Override Text.XHtml's stringToHtml function,
3595 so that characters below 0xff are not converted to numerical entity
3596 references. Also convert '\160' to " ". This should aid readability
3597 and editability of the HTML source. It does presuppose that the HTML
3598 will be served as UTF-8.
3599 + In code blocks, change leading newlines to <br /> tags.
3600 (Some browsers ignore them.) Resolves Issue #71.
3601 See http://six.pairlist.net/pipermail/markdown-discuss/2008-May/001297.html
3602 + Use style attributes rather than css classes for strikethrough
3603 and ordered list styles. This works better when fragments, rather than
3604 standalone documents, are generated.
3606 * HTML reader: Count anything that isn't a known block (HTML) tag as an
3607 inline tag (rather than the other way around). Added "html", "head", and
3608 "body" to list of block tags. Resolves Issue #66, allowing
3609 <lj> to count as an inline tag.
3611 * RTF writer: Fixed bug. Extra spaces were being printed after emphasized,
3612 boldface, and other inline elements. Resolves Issue #64.
3614 * LaTeX reader: improvements in raw LaTeX parsing.
3616 + "loose punctuation" (like {}) parsed as Space
3617 + Para elements must contain more than Str "" and Space elements
3618 + Added parser for "\ignore" command used in literate haskell.
3619 + Reworked unknownCommand and rawLaTeXInline: when not in "parse raw"
3620 mode, these parsers simply strip off the command part and allow
3621 the arguments to be parsed normally. So, for example,
3622 \blorg{\emph{hi}} will be parsed as Emph "hi" rather than
3624 + Parse lhs "code" environments as verbatim.
3625 Refactored parsers for verbatim environments.
3626 + Removed specialEnvironment parser.
3627 + parse '{}', if present, after \textless, \textgreater,
3628 \textbar, \textbackslash, \ldots.
3629 + Parse unescaped special characters verbatim rather than
3630 changing them to spaces. This way arguments of unknown
3631 commands will appear in braces.
3633 * Parse raw ConTeXt environments as TeX in markdown reader.
3636 * Moved BlockWrapper and wrappedBlocksToDoc from ConTeXt writer to Shared.
3638 * Made some structural changes to parsing of raw LaTeX environments.
3639 Previously there was a special block parser for LaTeX environments.
3640 It returned a Para element containing the raw TeX inline. This has
3641 been removed, and the raw LaTeX environment parser is now used in the
3642 rawLaTeXInline parser. The effect is exactly the same, except that we
3643 can now handle consecutive LaTeX and ConTeXt environments not separated
3644 by spaces. This new flexibility is required by the example in
3647 \placeformula \startformula
3651 API change: The LaTeX reader now exports rawLaTeXEnvironment' (which
3652 returns a string) rather than rawLaTeXEnvironment (which returns a block
3653 element). This is more likely to be useful in other applications.
3655 * Use \textsubscr instead of \textsubscript for LaTeX subscript macro.
3656 \textsubscript conflicts with a definition in the memoir class.
3659 * Removed unneeded space after "\\item" in LaTeX and ConTeXt output.
3661 * Added amsmath package to default LaTeX header. Resolves Issue #48.
3663 * Added \setupitemize[autointro] to ConTeXt header, to prevent orphaned
3664 list introduction lines.
3666 * Changed Float to Double in definition of Table element.
3667 (Double is more efficient in GHC.)
3669 * Fixed bug in Markdown parser: regular $s triggering math mode.
3670 For example: "shoes ($20) and socks ($5)."
3671 The fix consists in two new restrictions:
3673 + the $ that ends a math span may not be directly followed by a digit.
3674 + no blank lines may be included within a math span.
3676 Thanks to Joseph Reagle for noticing the bug.
3678 * Use Data.List's 'intercalate' instead of custom 'joinWithSep'.
3679 Removed 'joinWithSep' from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3681 * Updated README and man pages. Acknowledge contributors in README.
3682 Added paragraph to README about producing S5 with separate CSS/javascript.
3684 * Updated INSTALL to reflect new build system (including configuration
3685 options) and document new dependencies. Added note to INSTALL that
3686 Cabal >= 1.2 is required for build. Resolves Issue #74.
3688 * Fixed some haddock documentation errors.
3690 * Small fix to markdown2pdf man page: only input needs to be piped through iconv.
3692pandoc (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
3696 * Made -H, -A, and -B options cumulative: if they are specified
3697 multiple times, multiple files will be included.
3699 * Added optional HTML sanitization using a whitelist.
3700 When this option is specified (--sanitize-html on the command line),
3701 unsafe HTML tags will be replaced by HTML comments, and unsafe HTML
3702 attributes will be removed. This option should be especially useful
3703 for those who want to use pandoc libraries in web applications, where
3704 users will provide the input.
3706 + Main.hs: Added --sanitize-html option.
3708 + Text.Pandoc.Shared: Added stateSanitizeHTML to ParserState.
3710 + Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML:
3711 - Added whitelists of sanitaryTags and sanitaryAttributes.
3712 - Added parsers to check these lists (and state) to see if a given
3713 tag or attribute should be counted unsafe.
3714 - Modified anyHtmlTag and anyHtmlEndTag to replace unsafe tags
3716 - Modified htmlAttribute to remove unsafe attributes.
3717 - Modified htmlScript and htmlStyle to remove these elements if
3720 + Modified README and man pages to document new option.
3722 * Improved handling of email addresses in markdown and reStructuredText.
3723 Consolidated uri and email address parsers. (Resolves Issue #37.)
3725 + New emailAddress and uri parsers in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
3726 - uri parser uses parseURI from Network.URI.
3727 - emailAddress parser properly handles email addresses with periods
3730 + Removed uri and emailAddress parsers from Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST
3731 and Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown.
3735 + Fixed emph parser so that "*hi **there***" is parsed as a Strong
3736 nested in an Emph. (A '*' is only recognized as the end of the
3737 emphasis if it's not the beginning of a strong emphasis.)
3739 + Moved blockQuote parser before list parsers for performance.
3741 + Modified 'source' parser to allow backslash-escapes in URLs.
3742 So, for example, [my](/url\(1\)) yields a link to /url(1).
3745 + Disallowed links within links. (Resolves Issue #35.)
3746 - Replaced inlinesInBalanced with inlinesInBalancedBrackets, which
3747 instead of hard-coding the inline parser takes an inline parser
3749 - Modified reference and inlineNote to use inlinesInBalancedBrackets.
3750 - Removed unneeded inlineString function.
3751 - Added inlineNonLink parser, which is now used in the definition of
3753 - Added inlineParsers list and redefined inline and inlineNonLink parsers
3755 - Added failIfLink parser.
3757 + Better handling of parentheses in URLs and quotation marks in titles.
3758 - 'source' parser first tries to parse URL with balanced parentheses;
3759 if that doesn't work, it tries to parse everything beginning with
3760 '(' and ending with ')'.
3761 - source parser now uses an auxiliary function source'.
3762 - linkTitle parser simplified and improved, under assumption that it
3763 will be called in context of source'.
3765 + Make 'block' conditional on strictness state, instead of using
3766 failIfStrict in block parsers. Use a different ordering of parsers
3767 in strict mode (raw HTML block before paragraph) for performance.
3768 In non-strict mode use rawHtmlBlocks instead of htmlBlock.
3769 Simplified htmlBlock, since we know it's only called in strict
3772 + Improved handling of raw HTML. (Resolves Issue #36.)
3773 - Tags that can be either block or inline (e.g. <ins>) should
3774 be treated as block when appropriate and as inline when
3775 appropriate. Thus, for example,
3777 should be treated as a paragraph with inline <ins> tags, while
3781 should be treated as a paragraph within <ins> tags.
3782 - Moved htmlBlock after para in list of block parsers. This ensures
3783 that tags that can be either block or inline get parsed as inline
3785 - Modified rawHtmlInline' so that block elements aren't treated as
3787 - Modified para parser so that paragraphs containing only HTML tags and
3788 blank space are not allowed. Treat these as raw HTML blocks instead.
3790 + Fixed bug wherein HTML preceding a code block could cause it to
3791 be parsed as a paragraph. The problem is that the HTML parser
3792 used to eat all blank space after an HTML block, including the
3793 indentation of the code block. (Resolves Issue #39.)
3794 - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML, removed parsing of following space
3796 - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown, modified rawHtmlBlocks so that
3797 indentation is eaten *only* on the first line after the HTML
3798 block. This means that in
3802 the foo won't be treated as a code block, but in
3808 it will. This seems the right approach for least surprise.
3812 + Fixed bug in parsing explicit links (resolves Issue #44).
3813 The problem was that we were looking for inlines until a '<' character
3814 signaled the start of the URL; so, if you hit a reference-style link,
3815 it would keep looking til the end of the document. Fix: change
3816 inline => (notFollowedBy (char '`') >> inline). Note that this won't
3817 allow code inlines in links, but these aren't allowed in resT anyway.
3819 + Cleaned up parsing of reference names in key blocks and links.
3820 Allow nonquoted reference links to contain isolated '.', '-', '_', so
3821 so that strings like 'a_b_' count as links.
3823 + Removed unnecessary check for following link in str.
3824 This is unnecessary now that link is above str in the definition of
3829 + Modified rawHtmlBlock so it parses </html> and </body> tags.
3830 This allows these tags to be handled correctly in Markdown.
3831 HTML reader now uses rawHtmlBlock', which excludes </html> and </body>,
3832 since these are handled in parseHtml. (Resolves Issue #38.)
3834 + Fixed bug (emph parser was looking for <IT> tag, not <I>).
3836 + Don't interpret contents of style tags as markdown.
3837 (Resolves Issue #40.)
3838 - Added htmlStyle, analagous to htmlScript.
3839 - Use htmlStyle in htmlBlockElement and rawHtmlInline.
3840 - Moved "script" from the list of tags that can be either block or
3841 inline to the list of block tags.
3843 + Modified rawHtmlBlock to use anyHtmlBlockTag instead of anyHtmlTag
3844 and anyHtmlEndTag. This fixes a bug in markdown parsing, where
3845 inline tags would be included in raw HTML blocks.
3847 + Modified anyHtmlBlockTag to test for (not inline) rather than
3848 directly for block. This allows us to handle e.g. docbook in
3849 the markdown reader.
3851 * LaTeX reader: Properly recognize --parse-raw in rawLaTeXInline.
3852 Updated LaTeX reader test to use --parse-raw.
3856 + Modified rules for automatic HTML header identifiers to
3857 ensure that identifiers begin with an alphabetic character.
3858 The new rules are described in README. (Resolves Issue #33.)
3860 + Changed handling of titles in HTML writer so you don't get
3861 "titleprefix - " followed by nothing.
3863 * ConTeXt writer: Use wrappers around Doc elements to ensure proper
3864 spacing. Each block element is wrapped with either Pad or Reg.
3865 Pad'ed elements are guaranteed to have a blank line in between.
3869 + Refactored RST writer to use a record instead of a tuple for state,
3870 and to include options in state so it doesn't need to be passed as
3873 + Use an interpreted text role to render math in restructuredText.

3893 * Simplified parsing of reference keys and notes in markdown and RST
3894 readers: The Reference data structure from Text.Pandoc.Shared is no
3895 longer needed, since referenceKey and noteBlock parses return strings
3896 (as many blank lines as were occupied by the key or note) and update
3897 state themselves. getPosition and setPosition are now used to ensure
3898 that error messages will give the correct line number. This yields
3899 cleaner (and slightly faster) code, with more accurate parsing error
3902 * Added new Math inline element:
3904 + Markdown and LaTeX readers now convert TeX math into Math elements,
3906 + This allows math to be treated differently from raw TeX in output.
3907 TeX elements are no longer printed in output formats other than
3908 Markdown, LaTeX, and ConTeXt. But Math elements are always printed.
3910 * New default handling of math in writers:
3912 + New module Text.Pandoc.Readers.TeXMath exports readTeXMath, which
3913 parses raw TeX math and outputs a string of Pandoc inlines that
3914 tries to render it as far as possible using unicode characters,
3915 lapsing into literal TeX when needed.
3916 + readTeXMath is now used for default HTML output in HTML, S5, RTF,
3917 and Docbook, if no other method for displaying math in HTML is
3918 specified. Enclosing $'s are no longer printed by default.
3919 + By default, math is put inside <span class="math">. This way it can be
3920 distinguished from the surrounding text, e.g. put in a different
3923 * New --gladtex and --mimetex options for display of math in HTML:
3925 + If --gladtex is specified, math is output between <eq> tags, so
3926 it can be processed by gladTeX.
3927 + If --mimetex is specified, math is put in <img> tags with a link
3928 to the mimetex CGI script (or any other script that takes TeX math
3929 as input and outputs an image). The URL of the script may be
3930 specified, but defaults to /cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi.
3931 + HTMLMathMethod structure in WriterOptions keeps track of how to
3932 display math in HTML output.
3933 + Updated README with a description of the four options for displaying
3938 + Fixed bug: parser for minimized attributes should not swallow
3940 + Simplified HTML attribute parsing.
3941 + Changed parsing of code blocks in HTML reader: <code> tag is no
3942 longer needed. <pre> suffices. All HTML tags in the code block
3943 (e.g. for syntax highlighting) are skipped, because they are not
3944 portable to other output formats. A <code>...</code> block not
3945 surrounded by <pre> now counts as inline HTML, not a code block.
3946 + Remove just one leading and one trailing newline from contents of
3947 <pre>...</pre> in codeBlock parser.
3951 + Removed support for box-style block quotes.
3952 + Require space before title in links and references.
3953 This fixes a bug in parsing URLs like http://silly/url(withparen).
3954 + Improved and simplified setextHeader parser.
3955 + Fixed logic in smart quote parsing, adding some needed 'try'
3957 + Fixed smart quote parsing so that unicode characters 8216 and 8217
3958 are recognized as single quotes, and 8220 and 8221 as double quotes.
3962 + Fixed bug in parsing of code blocks. Previously a full tab indent
3963 was required, but RST allows code to be indented any amount.
3965 + Allow field lists to be indented.
3966 + Parse the contents of field lists instead of treating as a raw string.
3967 + Represent field lists as definition lists instead of blockquotes.
3968 + Fixed bug in which metadata would be overridden if the document
3969 contained multiple field lists.
3970 + Parse fields associated with '.. image::' blocks, and use 'alt'
3971 field, if given, for image alt and title attributes.
3975 + Modified specialChar so that '"' characters are parsed.
3976 + Fixed a bug in parsing of \[ \] math blocks (thanks to Mark Kalderon).
3980 + Changes in handling of math (see above).
3981 + Don't produce HTML for table of contents if there are
3982 no headers. (This would be an empty list, which is invalid XHTML.)
3986 + Don't print title attribute if title is empty. (This differs from
3987 the behavior of Markdown.pl, and agrees with PHP Markdown. But John
3988 Gruber has indicated that he prefers this behavior.) Adjusted test
3990 + Fixed incorrect line wrapping in paragraphs including hard line
3991 breaks. Resolves Issue #25.
3992 + Fixed bug in markdown writer: If an ordered list item began with
3993 a marker greater than 3 characters in width, and the item took more
3994 than one line, it would appear on the line after the list marker,
4001 Now it works as follows:
4008 + Fixed bug in RST writer's handling of ordered lists. Previously,
4009 list items with multiple lines would not always line up with
4010 single-line list items. Now, list items are nested the length of
4011 the list marker + 1. This looks better and ensures that list items
4012 all line up. (Note that list markers are padded to the length of
4013 the longest list marker in the series.)
4014 + Use 3-space indent for unordered lists.
4015 + If label for a link reference contains a colon, surround it by `
4016 signs so it won't be interpreted as the end of the link label.
4020 + Cleaner output for footnotes. Footnotes now always begin on a new
4021 line, and the final } is on a line by itself only when it needs to
4022 be (i.e. only when the note ends with a Verbatim environment).
4023 + Added writer options to state, so state doesn't need to be passed as
4025 + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
4027 * ConTeXt writer: many improvements for more idiomatic ConTeXt output
4028 (thanks to Idris Samawi Hamid for suggestions).
4030 + PrettyPrint module now used for output.
4031 + Writer options are now in state, so they don't have to be passed as
4033 + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
4034 + Better treatment of footnotes: footnotes are always on lines by
4035 themselves, and the final } is on a line by itself only when
4036 it needs to be (after \stoptyping).
4037 + Use \subject, \subsubject, ... or \section, \subsection, ... for headings,
4038 depending on whether --number-sections option is selected.
4039 + Extra blank line inserted after \stopitemize
4040 + Use new, "official" definition of blockquote environment. Also, use
4041 blank line after \startblockquote to balance blank line at the end.
4042 + Both itemized and enumerated lists are now generated using
4043 \start-stopitemize, with appropriate options. Removed definitions
4044 of ltxenum and ltxitem, which are no longer needed. Provided
4045 defaults for itemized lists in the preamble. State keeps track of
4046 ordered list level, so that when default numbering is specified,
4047 the appropriate scheme can be used.
4048 + Changed \useurl to \useURL.
4049 + Changed link color from red to blue.
4050 + Use \subsubsubsubsection etc., since these are supported
4051 (up to at least sub x 5).
4053 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
4055 + Save and restore position in parseFromString, so that accurate
4056 error messages can be given.
4057 + Improved efficiency of romanNumeral parser.
4058 + Added wrappedTeX and wrapTeXIfNeeded functions. These ensure
4059 that footnotes occur on lines by themselves (to make them
4060 easier to see and move) and do not screw up line wrapping.
4062 * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: modified fromUTF8 to strip out the BOM
4063 if present. Windows Notepad and other applications insert a
4064 BOM at the beginning of a UTF8 file.
4066 * Main.hs (tabFilter): Treat '\r' at end of line as newline (in
4067 addition to "\r\n" and '\n').
4069 * Added a writer option for wrapped text and a command-line option
4070 '--no-wrap', which disables text wrapping and minimizes whitespace
4071 in HTML. (Resolves Issue #26.)
4073 + Added support for '--no-wrap' to Main.hs.
4074 + Added wrapIfNeeded function to Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4075 + Use wrapIfNeeded instead of wrapped in the RST, Man, Docbook, and
4077 + Added render and renderFragment helpers to HTML writer.
4079 * Modified html2markdown to run tidy only if the HTML cannot be
4080 parsed. Previously html2markdown piped all input through tidy
4081 before passing it to pandoc. This caused problems on certain pages
4082 (e.g. http://daringfireball.com/markdown) which have well-formed
4083 XHTML that causes tidy to choke. The solution is to pipe through
4084 tidy only if pandoc cannot parse the input by itself. This means
4085 that a temp file is now always used, even when input comes from a
4086 local file or standard input.
4088 * Removed 'version' constant from Main.hs; added 'pandocVersion' to
4089 Text.Pandoc library.
4093 + Modified to work with GHC 6.8 and Cabal configurations. (For GHC
4094 6.8, pretty and containers must be added to Build-Depends, and it
4095 is desirable to use the -O2 compiler option.) Cabal configurations
4096 allows one to select options depending on the compiler version.
4097 For GHC 6.6, the splitBase option can be disabled.
4098 + pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is provided for users with older versions of
4099 Cabal, which do not support configurations.
4100 + Use Ghc-Prof-Options to ensure that '-auto-all' is used when
4101 '--enable-(executable|library)-profiling' is specified. Updated
4102 PROFILING instructions accordingly.
4106 + Makefile now checks GHC version. If GHC is 6.6, pandoc.cabal.ghc66
4107 is copied to pandoc.cabal, and the old pandoc.cabal is copied
4108 to pandoc.cabal.orig. Otherwise, pandoc.cabal is copied to
4109 pandoc.cabal.orig but otherwise unmodified. This way, the Makefile
4110 will work properly with either GHC 6.6 or 6.8.
4111 + Changed BUILDCONF to point to dist/setup-config, not .setup-config.
4112 This is where current versions of Cabal put it.
4113 + Added $(BUILDCMD) target, so setup doesn't get compiled every time.
4114 + Removed dependency of templates on ./templates, which is circular
4115 now that templates is a subdirectory of the top-level.
4117 * MacPorts Portfile:
4119 + Modified to install the pandoc library in addition to programs.
4120 + Installation must be done manually rather than using Makefile's
4122 + Note that the library must be registered in the activate phase,
4123 after the library files have been copied out of the destroot.
4124 Cabal generates a 'register.sh' script that will do this.
4126 * debian/control: Added libghc6-network-dev, libghc6-xhtml-dev, and
4127 libghc6-mtl-dev as dependencies for libghc6-pandoc-dev.
4130 * debian/rules: Converted to UTF-8.
4132 * Changed pandoc home page to http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/.
4134 * Updated ASCIIMathML.js to latest version.
4136 * Directory structure:
4138 + Moved everything from src into the top-level directory.
4139 + Changed references to source directory in Makefile and
4141 + Moved ASCIIMathML.js, headers, and ui into templates directory.
4142 + Modified fillTemplates.pl to reflect new paths.
4146 * Makefile: Fixed the issue of having two copies of the library
4147 documentation under some usage scenarios.
4149 * Replaced 'ghc' with '$(GHC)' in Makefile, and made GHC
4150 and GHC_PKG configurable through the environment, to support
4151 unusual ghc installations. For example:
4152 GHC=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc GHC_PKG=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc-pkg make

4160 * Fixed bug in HTML writer: when --toc was used, anchors were put around
4161 headers, which is invalid XHTML (block content within inline element).
4162 Now the anchors are put inside the header tags. Resolves Issue #23.
4164 * Added xmlns attribute to html element in html writer tests.
4165 This attribute is added by more recent versions of the
4166 xhtml library (>= 3000), and is required for valid XHTML.
4170 * On configure, compile 'Setup.hs' to 'setup' and use 'setup' as the build
4171 command instead of 'runhaskell', which, on some platforms (such as s390,
4172 alpha, m68k), throws the following error:
4174 runhaskell Setup.hs configure --prefix=/usr

4185 * The focus of this release is performance. The markdown parser
4186 is about five times faster than in 0.42, based on benchmarks
4187 with the TextMate manual.
4189 * Main.hs: Replaced CRFilter and tabFilter with single function
4190 tabFilter, which operates on the whole string rather than breaking
4191 it into lines, and handles dos-style line-endings as well as tabs.
4193 * Added separate LaTeX reader and native reader tests; removed
4196 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
4198 + Removed tabsToSpaces and tabsInLine (they were used only in Main.hs.)
4199 + General code cleanup (to elimante warnings when compiling with -Wall.)
4200 + Added 'wrapped' function, which helps wrap text into paragraphs,
4201 using the prettyprinting library.
4202 + Rewrote charsInBalanced and charsInBalanced'.
4203 - Documented restriction: open and close must be distinct characters.
4204 - Rearranged options for greater efficiency.
4205 - Bug fix: Changed inner call to charsInBalanced inside
4206 charsInBalanced' to charsInBalanced'.
4207 + anyLine now requires that the line end with a newline (not eof).
4208 This is a harmless assumption, since we always add newlines to the
4209 end of a block before parsing with anyLine, and it yields a 10% speed
4211 + Removed unnecessary 'try' in anyLine.
4212 + Removed unneeded 'try' from romanNumeral parser.
4213 + Use notFollowedBy instead of notFollowedBy' in charsInBalanced.
4214 + Removed unneeded 'try' in parseFromString.
4215 + Removed unneeded 'try' from stringAnyCase. (Now it behaves
4217 + Changed definition of 'enclosed' in Text.Pandoc.Shared so that
4218 'try' is not automatically applied to the 'end' parser. Added
4219 'try' in calls to 'enclosed' where needed. Slight speed increase.
4223 + Replaced individual wrapping routines in RST, Man, and Markdown
4224 writers with 'wrapped' from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4225 + Rewrote LaTeX writer to use the prettyprinting library,
4226 so we get word wrapping, etc.
4227 + Modified latex writer tests for new latex writer using prettyprinter.
4228 + Fixed bug in LaTeX writer: autolinks would not cause
4229 '\usepackage{url}' to be put in the document header. Also, changes
4230 to state in enumerated list items would be overwritten.
4231 + In Markdown writer, escape paragraphs that begin with ordered list
4232 markers, so they don't get interpreted as ordered lists.
4234 * Text.Pandoc.Reades.LaTeX:
4236 + Fixed bug in LaTeX reader, which wrongly assumed that the roman
4237 numeral after "enum" in "setcounter" would consist entirely of
4238 "i"s. 'enumiv' is legitimate.
4239 + LaTeX command and environment names can't contain numbers.
4240 + Rearranged order of parsers in inline for slight speed improvement.
4241 + Added '`' to special characters and 'unescapedChar'.
4243 * Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST:
4245 + Removed unneeded try's in RST reader; also minor code cleanup.
4247 + Rearranged parsers in inline (doubled speed).
4249 * Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown:
4251 + Skip notes parsing if running in strict mode. (This yields a nice
4252 speed improvement in strict mode.)
4253 + Simplify autolink parsing code, using Network.URI to test for
4254 URIs. Added dependency on network library to debian/control and
4256 + More perspicuous definition of nonindentSpaces.
4257 + Removed unneeded 'try' in 'rawLine'.
4258 + Combined linebreak and whitespace into a new whitespace parser, to
4259 avoid unnecessary reparsing of space characters.
4260 + Removed unnecessary 'try' in 'codeBlock', 'ellipses', 'noteMarker',
4261 'multilineRow', 'dashedLine', 'rawHtmlBlocks'.
4262 + Use lookAhead in parsers for setext headers and definition lists
4263 to see if the next line begins appropriately; if not, don't waste
4264 any more time parsing.
4265 + Don't require blank lines after code block. (It's sufficient to
4266 end code block with a nonindented line.)
4267 + Changed definition of 'emph': italics with '_' must not
4268 be followed by an alphanumeric character. This is to help
4269 prevent interpretation of e.g. [LC_TYPE]: my_type as
4270 '[LC<em>TYPE]:my</em>type'.
4271 + Improved Markdown.pl-compatibility in referenceLink: the two parts
4272 of a reference-style link may be separated by one space, but not
4273 more... [a] [link], [not] [a link].
4274 + Fixed markdown inline code parsing so it better accords with
4275 Markdown.pl: the marker for the end of the code section is a clump
4276 of the same number of `'s with which the section began, followed
4277 by a non-` character. So, for example,
4278 ` h ``` i ` -> <code>h ``` i</code>.
4279 + Split 'title' into 'linkTitle' and 'referenceTitle', since the
4280 rules are slightly different.
4281 + Rewrote 'para' for greater efficiency.
4282 + Rewrote link parsers for greater efficiency.
4283 + Removed redundant 'referenceLink' in definition of inline (it's
4285 + Refactored escapeChar so it doesn't need 'try'.
4286 + Refactored hrule for performance in Markdown reader.
4287 + More intelligent rearranging of 'inline' so that most frequently
4288 used parsers are tried first.
4289 + Removed tabchar parser, as whitespace handles tabs anyway.
4291 * Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences:
4294 + Removed unnecessary 'try's for a speed improvement.
4295 + Removed unnecessary '&' and ';' from the entity table.
4299 + Makefile: Get VERSION from cabal file, not Main.hs.
4300 + Modified MacPorts Portfile:
4302 - Build and install libraries and library documentation in
4303 addition to pandoc executable
4304 - Added template item for md5 sum in Portfile.in.
4305 - Incorporated changes from MacPorts repository (r28278).
4306 + FreeBSD port: Don't try to generate distinfo in Makefile.
4307 It can be made using 'make makesum' in FreeBSD.
4308 + Make both freebsd and macports targets depend on tarball.
4310 * Website and documentation:
4312 + Updated INSTALL instructions.
4313 + Added pandocwiki demo to website.
4314 + Removed local references to Portfile, since pandoc is now in the
4315 MacPorts repository.

4323 * Main.hs: Use utf8 conversion on the extra files loaded with
4324 the -H, -C, -B, and -A options. This fixes problems with unicode
4325 characters in these files.
4327 * Exposed Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML, since it is imported in
4328 Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML and without it we get a linking error when
4333 + Added new rule for enhanced markdown ordered lists: if the list
4334 marker is a capital letter followed by a period (including a
4335 single-letter capital roman numeral), then it must be followed by
4336 at least two spaces. The point of this is to avoid accidentally
4337 treating people's initials as list markers: a paragraph might begin,
4338 "B. Russell was an English philosopher," and this shouldn't be
4339 treated as a list. Documented change in README.
4340 + Blocks that start with "p. " and a digit are no longer treated
4341 as ordered lists (it's a page number).
4342 + Added a needed 'try' to listItem.
4343 + Removed check for a following setext header in endline.
4344 A full test is too inefficient (doubles benchmark time), and the
4345 substitute we had before is not 100% accurate.
4346 + Don't use Code elements for autolinks if --strict specified.
4348 * LaTeX writer: When a footnote ends with a Verbatim environment, the
4349 close } of the footnote cannot occur on the same line or an error occurs.
4350 Fixed this by adding a newline before the closing } of every footnote.
4353 + Removed incorrect "{}" around style information in HTML tables.
4354 Column widths now work properly in HTML.
4355 + If --strict option is specified (and --toc is not), don't include
4356 identifiers in headers, for better Markdown compatibility.
4360 + Separated $(web_dest) and website targets.
4361 + In website, index.txt is now constructed from template index.txt.in.
4362 + Added freebsd target to Markefile. This creates the freebsd Makefile
4363 from Makefile.in, and creates distinfo. Removed Makefile and distinfo
4364 from the repository.
4365 + Added macport target to Makefile. Portfile is built from template
4367 + Removed OSX package targets. (Too many difficulties involving
4368 dependencies on dynamic libraries.)
4369 + More complete INSTALL instructions for all architectures.
4372 + Added a programming demo, pandocwiki.

4384 * Fixed bugs in HTML reader:
4385 + Skip material at end *only if* </html> is present (previously,
4386 only part of the document would be parsed if an error was
4387 found; now a proper error message is given).
4388 + Added new constant eitherBlockOrInline with elements that may
4389 count either as block-level or as inline. Modified isInline and
4390 isBlock to take this into account.
4391 + Modified rawHtmlBlock to accept any tag (even an inline tag):
4392 this is innocuous, because rawHtmlBlock is tried only if a regular
4393 inline element can't be parsed.
4394 + Added a necessary 'try' in definition of 'para'.
4396 * Fixed bug in markdown ordered list parsing. The problem was that
4397 anyOrderedListStart did not check for a space following the
4398 ordered list marker. So in 'A.B. 2007' the parser would be
4399 expecting a list item, but would not find one, causing an error.
4400 Fixed a similar bug in the RST reader. Resolves Issue #22.
4402 * Refactored RST and Markdown readers using parseFromString.
4404 * LaTeX reader will now skip anything after \end{document}.
4406 * Fixed blockquote output in markdown writer: previously, block
4407 quotes in indented contexts would be indented only in the first
4410 * Added note to INSTALL about variations in versions of the xhtml
4411 library that can lead to failed tests (thanks to Leif LeBaron).

4415pandoc (0.4) unstable; urgency=low
4419 * Added two new output formats: groff man pages and ConTeXt. By
4420 default, output files with extensions ".ctx" and ".context" are
4421 assumed to be ConTeXt, and output files with single-digit extensions
4422 are assumed to be man pages.
4424 * Enhanced ordered lists (documented in README, under Lists):
4425 + The OrderedList block element now stores information about
4426 list number style, list number delimiter, and starting number.
4427 + The readers parse this information when possible.
4428 + The writers use this information to style ordered lists.
4429 + The enhancement can be disabled using the --strict option.
4431 * Added support for tables (with a new Table block element). Two kinds
4432 of tables are supported: a simple table with one-line rows, and a
4433 more complex variety with multiline rows. All output formats are
4434 supported, but only markdown tables are parsed at the moment. The
4435 syntax is documented in README.
4437 * Added support for definition lists (with a new DefinitionList block
4438 element). All output and input formats are supported. The syntax is
4439 documented in README.
4441 * Added support for superscripts and subscripts (with new Superscript
4442 and Subscript inline elements). All input and output
4443 formats. The syntax is documented in README.
4445 * Added support for strikeout (with a new Strikeout inline element).
4446 All input and output formats are supported. Thanks to Bradley Kuhn,
4447 who contributed a patch. The syntax is documented in README. Resolves
4450 * Added a --toc|--table-of-contents option. This causes an automatically
4451 generated table of contents (or an instruction that creates one) to
4452 be inserted at the beginning of the document. Not supported in S5,
4453 DocBook, or man page writers.
4455 * Modified the -m|--asciimathml option:
4457 + If an optional URL argument is provided, a link is inserted
4458 instead of the contents of the ASCIIMathML.js script.
4459 + Nothing is inserted unless the document actually contains
4462 * Removed Blank block element as unnecessary.
4464 * Removed Key and Note blocks from the Pandoc data structure. All
4465 links are now stored as explicit links, and note contents are
4466 stored with the (inline) notes.
4468 + All link Targets are now explicit (URL, title) pairs; there
4469 is no longer a 'Ref' target.
4470 + Markdown and RST parsers now need to extract data from key and
4471 note blocks and insert them into the relevant inline elements.
4472 Other parsers have been simplified, since there is no longer any need
4473 to construct separate key and note blocks.
4474 + Markdown, RST, and HTML writers need to construct lists of
4475 notes; Markdown and RST writers need to construct lists of link
4476 references (when the --reference-links option is specified); and
4477 the RST writer needs to construct a list of image substitution
4478 references. All writers have been rewritten to use the State monad
4479 when state is required.
4480 + Several functions (generateReference, keyTable,
4481 replaceReferenceLinks, replaceRefLinksBlockList, and some auxiliaries
4482 used by them) have been removed from Text.Pandoc.Shared, since
4483 they are no longer needed. New functions and data structures
4484 (Reference, isNoteBlock, isKeyBlock, isLineClump) have been
4485 added. The functions inTags, selfClosingTag, inTagsSimple, and
4486 inTagsIndented have been moved to the DocBook writer, since that
4487 is now the only module that uses them. NoteTable is now exported
4488 in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4489 + Added stateKeys and stateNotes to ParserState; removed stateKeyBlocks,
4490 stateKeysUsed, stateNoteBlocks, stateNoteIdentifiers, stateInlineLinks.
4491 + Added writerNotes and writerReferenceLinks to WriterOptions.
4493 * Added Text.Pandoc module that exports basic readers, writers,
4494 definitions, and utility functions. This should export everything
4495 needed for most uses of Pandoc libraries. The haddock documentation
4496 includes a short example program.
4498 * Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML is no longer an exported module.
4500 * Added Text.Pandoc.Blocks module to help in printing markdown
4501 and RST tables. This module provides functions for working with
4502 fixed-width blocks of text--e.g., placing them side by side, as
4505 * Refactored to avoid reliance on Haskell's Text.Regex library, which
4506 (a) is slow, and (b) does not properly handle unicode. This fixed
4507 some strange bugs, e.g. in parsing S-cedilla, and improved performance.
4509 + Replaced 'gsub' with a general list function 'substitute'
4510 that does not rely on Text.Regex.
4511 + Rewrote extractTagType in HTML reader so that it doesn't use
4513 + In Markdown reader, replaced email regex test with a custom email
4514 autolink parser (autoLinkEmail). Also replaced selfClosingTag regex
4515 with a custom function isSelfClosingTag.
4516 + Modified Docbook writer so that it doesn't rely on Text.Regex for
4517 detecting 'mailto' links.
4518 + Removed escapePreservingRegex and reamped entity-handling
4519 functions in Text.Pandoc.Shared and Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences to
4520 avoid reliance on Text.Regex (see below on character reference
4523 * Renamed Text.Pandoc.Entities as Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.
4525 * Changed handling of XML entities. Entities are now parsed (and unicode
4526 characters returned) in the Markdown and HTML readers, rather than being
4527 handled in the writers. In HTML and Docbook writers, UTF-8 is now used
4528 instead of entities for characters above 128. This makes the HTML and
4529 DocBook output much more readable and more easily editable.
4531 + Removed sgmlHexEntity, sgmlDecimalEntity, sgmlNamedEntity, and
4532 sgmlCharacterEntity regexes from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
4533 + Renamed escapeSGMLChar to escapeCharForXML. Added escapeStringForXML.
4534 Moved both functions to Text.Pandoc.Writers.Docbook.
4535 + Added characterReference parser to Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.
4536 This parses a string and return a unicode character.
4537 + Rewrote decodeCharacterReferences to use the new parser instead of
4539 + Added new charRef parser for Markdown and HTML, which replaces the
4540 old 'entity' parser. Added '&' as a special character in Markdown reader.
4541 + Modified HTML and Markdown readers to call decodeEntities on all raw
4542 strings (e.g. authors, dates, link titles), to ensure that no
4543 unprocessed entities are included in the native representation of
4544 the document. (In the HTML reader, most of this work is done by a
4545 change in extractAttributeName.)
4546 + In XML and Markdown output, escape unicode nonbreaking space as ' ',
4547 since a unicode non-breaking space is impossible to distinguish visually
4548 from a regular space. (Resolves Issue #3.)
4549 + Removed encodeEntitiesNumerical.
4550 + Use Data.Map for entityTable and (new) reverseEntityTable, for a
4551 slight performance boost over the old association list.
4552 + Removed unneeded decodeEntities from 'str' parser in HTML and
4555 * Text.Pandoc.UTF8: Renamed encodeUTF8 to toUTF8, decodeUTF8 to
4556 fromUTF8, for clarity.
4558 * Replaced old haskell98 module names replaced by hierarchical module
4559 names, e.g. List by Data.List. Removed haskell98 from dependencies
4560 in pandoc.cabal, and added mtl (needed for state monad). Substituted
4563 * Refactored and cleaned up character escaping in writers, using
4564 backslashEscapes and escapeStringUsing functions.
4566 * Instead of adding "\n\n" to the end of an input string in Main.hs,
4567 this is now done in the readers. This makes the libraries behave
4568 the way you'd expect from the pandoc program. Resolves Issue #10.
4570 * URLs and email addresses in autolinks are now typeset as Code.
4572 * In Main.hs, changed putStr to putStrLn -- mainly because MacOS X
4573 doesn't display the whole output unless there's a line ending.
4575 * Major code cleanup in all modules, for greater consistency, concision,
4580 + Fixed several bugs (extractTagType, attribute parsing).
4581 + Remove Null blocks in lists of blocks when possible.
4582 + Allow HTML comments as raw HTML inline.
4586 + Ordered list items may no longer begin with uppercase letters, or
4587 letters greater than 'n'. (This prevents first initials and page
4588 reference, e.g. 'p. 400', from being parsed as beginning lists.)
4589 Also, numbers beginning list items may no longer end with ')',
4590 which is now allowed only after letters. Note: These changes
4591 may cause documents to be parsed differently. Users should take
4593 + Changed autoLink parsing to conform better to Markdown.pl's
4594 behavior. <google.com> is not treated as a link, but
4595 <http://google.com>, <ftp://google.com>, and <mailto:google@google.com>
4597 + Cleaned up handling of embedded quotes in link titles. Now these are
4598 stored as a '"' character, not as '"'.
4599 + Use lookAhead parser for the 'first pass' (looking for reference keys),
4600 instead of parsing normally, then using setInput to reset input. This
4601 yields a slight performance boost.
4602 + Fixed several bugs in smart quote recognition.
4603 + Fixed bug in indentSpaces (which didn't properly handle
4604 cases with mixed spaces and tabs).
4605 + Consolidated 'text', 'special', and 'inline' into 'inline'.
4606 + Fixed bug which allowed URL and title to be separated by multiple blank
4607 lines in links and reference keys. They can be on separate lines but
4608 can't have blank lines between them.
4609 + Correctly handle bracketed text inside inline footnotes and links,using
4610 new function inlinesInBalanced. Resolves Issue #14.
4611 + Fixed bug in footnotes: links in footnotes were not being
4612 processed. Solution: three-stage parse. First, get all the
4613 reference keys and add information to state. Next, get all the
4614 notes and add information to state. (Reference keys may be needed
4615 at this stage.) Finally, parse everything else.
4616 + Replaced named constants like 'emphStart' with literals.
4617 + Removed an extra occurance of escapedChar in definition of inline.
4621 + Allow the URI in a RST hyperlink target to start on the line
4622 after the reference key.
4623 + Added 'try' in front of 'string', where needed, or used a different
4624 parser. This fixes a bug where ````` would not be correctly parsed as
4626 + Fixed slow performance in parsing inline literals in RST reader. The
4627 problem was that ``#`` was seen by 'inline' as a potential link or image.
4628 Fix: inserted 'notFollowedBy (char '`')' in link parsers.
4630 + Use lookAhead instead of getInput/setInput in RST reader. Removed
4631 unneeded getState call, since lookAhead automatically saves and
4632 restores the parser state.
4633 + Allow hyperlink target URIs to be split over multiple lines, and
4634 to start on the line after the reference. Resolves Issue #7.
4635 + Fixed handling of autolinks.
4639 + Replaced 'choice [(try (string ...), ...]' idiom with 'oneOfStrings',
4641 + Added clauses for tilde and caret. Tilde is \ensuremath{\sim}, and
4642 caret is \^{}, not \^ as before.
4643 + Added parsing for \url.
4644 + Parse \texttt{} as code, provided there's nothing fancy inside.
4648 + Modified HTML writer to use the Text.XHtml library. This results
4649 in cleaner, faster code, and it makes it easier to use Pandoc in
4650 other projects, like wikis, which use Text.XHtml. Two functions are
4651 now provided, writeHtml and writeHtmlString: the former outputs an
4652 Html structure, the latter a rendered string. The S5 writer is also
4653 changed, in parallel ways (writeS5, writeS5String).
4654 + The Html header is now written programmatically, so it has been
4655 removed from the 'headers' directory. The S5 header is still
4656 needed, but the doctype and some of the meta declarations have
4657 been removed, since they are written programatically. This change
4658 introduces a new dependency on the xhtml package.
4659 + Fixed two bugs in email obfuscation involving improper escaping
4660 of '&' in the <noscript> section and in --strict mode. Resolves
4662 + Fixed another bug in email obfuscation: If the text to be obfuscated
4663 contains an entity, this needs to be decoded before obfuscation.
4664 Thanks to thsutton for the patch. Resolves Issue #15.
4665 + Changed the way the backlink is displayed in HTML footnotes.
4666 Instead of appearing on a line by itself, it now generally
4667 appears on the last line of the note. (Exception: when the
4668 note does not end with a Plain or Para block.) This saves space
4670 + Added automatic unique identifiers to headers:
4671 - The identifier is derived from the header via a scheme
4672 documented in README.
4673 - WriterState now includes a list of header identifiers and a table
4674 of contents in addition to notes.
4675 - The function uniqueIdentifiers creates a list of unique identifiers
4676 from a list of inline lists (e.g. headers).
4677 - This list is part of WriterState and gets consumed by blockToHtml
4678 each time a header is encountered.
4679 + Include CSS for .strikethrough class in header only if strikethrough
4680 text appears in the document.
4681 + If the 'strict' option is specified, elements that do not appear in
4682 standard markdown (like definition lists) are passed through as
4684 + Simplified treatment of autolinks, using pattern matching instead of
4689 + Links in markdown output are now printed as inline links by default,
4690 rather than reference links. A --reference-links option has been added
4691 that forces links to be printed as reference links. Resolves Issue #4.
4692 + Use autolinks when possible. Instead of [site.com](site.com),
4697 + Rewrote to use the State monad. The preamble now includes only those
4698 packages that are actually required, given the document's content.
4699 Thus, for example, if strikeout is not used, ulem is not required.
4700 Modified LaTeXHeader accordingly.
4701 + Modified LaTeX writer to insert '\,' between consecutive quotes.
4702 + Removed unused function tableRowColumnWidths.
4703 + Simplified code for escaping special characters.
4704 + Leave extra blank line after \maketitle.
4705 + Include empty '\author{}' when no author specified to avoid LaTeX
4707 + Include fancyvrb code in header only if needed -- that is, only
4708 if there is actually code in a footnote.
4709 + Use \url{} for autolinks.
4710 + Include [mathletters] option in ucs package, so that basic unicode
4711 Greek letters will work correctly.
4713 * RST writer: Force blank line before lists, so that sublists will
4714 be handled correctly.
4716 * Docbook writer: Fixed a bug: email links with text, like
4717 [foo](me@bar.baz), were being incorrectly treated as autolinks.
4719 * Removed Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc and moved all its functions to
4722 * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
4724 + Added defaultWriterOptions.
4725 + Added writerTableOfContents to WriterOptions.
4726 + Added writerIgnoreNotes option to WriterOptions. This is needed
4727 for processing header blocks for a table of contents, since notes on
4728 headers should not appear in the TOC.
4729 + Added prettyprinting for native Table format.
4730 + Removed some unneeded imports.
4731 + Moved escape and nullBlock parsers from
4732 Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc, since the latter is for
4733 general-purpose parsers that don't depend on Text.Pandoc.Definition.
4734 + Moved isHeaderBlock from Text.Pandoc.Writers.HTML.
4735 + Moved Element, headerAtLeast, and hierarchicalize from Docbook
4736 writer, because HTML writer now uses these in constructing a table
4738 + Added clauses for new inline elements (Strikeout, Superscript,
4739 Subscript) to refsMatch.
4740 + Removed backslashEscape; added new functions escapeStringUsing and
4742 + Moved failIfStrict from markdown reader, since it is now used also
4744 + Added a 'try' to the definition of indentSpaces.
4745 + In definition of 'reference', added check to make sure it's not a note
4747 + Added functions: camelCaseToHyphenated, toRomanNumeral,
4748 anyOrderedListMarker, orderedListmarker, orderedListMarkers,
4749 charsInBalanced', withHorizDisplacement, romanNumeral
4750 + Fixed a bug in the anyLine parser. Previously it would parse an empty
4751 string "", but it should fail on an empty string, or we get an error
4752 when it is used inside "many" combinators.
4753 + Removed followedBy' parser, replacing it with the lookAhead parser from
4755 + Added some needed 'try's before multicharacter parsers, especially in
4757 + Removed the 'try' from the 'end' parser in 'enclosed', so that
4758 'enclosed' behaves like 'option', 'manyTill', etc.
4759 + Added lineClump parser, which parses a raw line block up to and
4760 including any following blank lines.
4761 + Renamed parseFromStr to parseFromString.
4762 + Added a 'try' to the 'end' parser in 'enclosed'. This makes errors in
4763 the use of 'enclosed' less likely. Removed some now-unnecessary 'try's
4765 + Removed unneeded 'try' in blanklines.
4766 + Removed endsWith function and rewrote calling functions to use
4768 + Added >>~ combinator.
4769 + Fixed bug in normalizeSpaces: Space:Str "":Space should compress to
4772 * Refactored runtests.pl; added separate tests for tables.
4776 + Added -asxhtml flag to tidy in html2markdown. This will
4777 perhaps help the parser, which expects closing tags.
4778 + Modified markdown2pdf to run pdflatex a second time if --toc or
4779 --table-of-contents was specified; otherwise the table of
4780 contents won't appear.
4781 + Modified markdown2pdf to print a helpful message if the 'ulem'
4782 LaTeX package is required and not found.
4784 * Changes to build process:
4786 + Dropped support for compilation with GHC 6.4. GHC 6.6 or higher
4788 + Removed cabalize and Pandoc.cabal.in. The repository now contains
4789 pandoc.cabal itself.
4790 + Pandoc.cabal has been changed to pandoc.cabal, because HackageDB
4791 likes the cabal file to have the same name as the tarball.
4792 + Expanded and revised the package description in pandoc.cabal.
4793 Revised the package synopsis.
4794 + The tarball built by 'make tarball' now contains files built from
4795 templates (including man pages and shell scripts), so pandoc can
4796 be built directly using Cabal tools, without preprocessing.
4797 + Executable binaries are now stripped before installing.
4798 + Man pages are now generated from markdown sources, using pandoc's
4800 + Use HTML version of README (instead of RTF) in Mac OS X installer.
4801 + Instead of testing for the existence of a pandoc symlink in build-exec,
4806 + Updated README and man pages with information on new features.
4807 + Updated INSTALL instructions with some useful clarifications and
4809 + Updated web content.
4811 * Added FreeBSD port.
4817 + Changed pandoc's Build-Depends to include libghc6-mtl-dev and
4818 libghc6-xhtml-dev. Removed libghc6-html-dev.
4819 + Suggest texlive-latex-recommended | tetex-extra instead of
4820 tetex-bin. This brings in fancyvrb and unicode support.

4824pandoc (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
4828 * Changes in pandoc options:
4830 + Allow options to follow or precede arguments.
4831 + Changed '--smartypants' to '--smart' and adjusted symbols accordingly.
4832 + Added '--strict' option.
4833 + Added '-o/--output' option.
4834 + Added '--dump-args' and '--ignore-args' options (for use in wrappers).
4835 + Modified '-v' and '-h' output to go to STDERR, not STDOUT, and return
4836 error conditions. This is helpful for writing wrappers.
4837 + Added copyright message to '-v' output, modeled after FSF messages.
4838 + Reformatted usage message so that it doesn't wrap illegibly.
4839 + Removed extra blanks after '-h' and '-D' output.
4841 * Added docbook writer.
4843 * Added implicit setting of default input and output format based
4844 on input and output filename extensions. These defaults are
4845 overridden if explicit input and output formats are specified using
4846 '-t', '-f', '-r', or '-w' options. Documented in pandoc(1) man page
4849 * Allow ordered list items to begin with (single) letters, as well
4850 as numbers. The list item marker may now be terminated either by
4851 '.' or by ')'. This extension to standard markdown is documented
4854 * Revised footnote syntax. (See README for full details.) The
4855 '[^1]' format now standard in markdown extensions is supported,
4856 as are inline footnotes with this syntax: '^[My note.]'.
4857 The earlier footnote syntax '^(1)' is no longer supported.
4859 * Improved HTML representation of footnotes. All footnotes
4860 are now auto-numbered and appear in an ordered list at the
4861 end of the HTML document. Since the default appearance is now
4862 acceptable, the old footnote styles have been removed from the
4867 + Fixed a serious bug in the markdown, LaTeX, and RST readers.
4868 These readers ran 'runParser' on processed chunks of text to handle
4869 embedded block lists in lists and quotation blocks. But then
4870 any changes made to the parser state in these chunks was lost,
4871 as the state is local to the parser. So, for example, footnotes
4872 didn't work in quotes or list items. The fix: instead of calling
4873 runParser on some raw text, use setInput to make it the input, then
4874 parse it, then use setInput to restore the input to what it was
4875 before. This is shorter and more elegant, and it fixes the problem.
4876 + Fixed bug in notFollowedBy' combinator (adding 'try' before
4877 'parser'). Adjusted code that uses this combinator accordingly.
4878 + Fixed bug in RTF writer that caused improper indentation on
4879 footnotes occurring in indented blocks like lists.
4880 + Fixed parsing of metadata in LaTeX reader. Now the title, author,
4881 and date are parsed correctly. Everything else in the preamble
4883 + Modified escapedChar in LaTeX reader to allow a '\' at the end of a
4884 line to count as escaped whitespace.
4885 + Modified LaTeX reader to produce inline links rather than reference
4886 links. Otherwise, links in footnotes aren't handled properly.
4887 + Fixed handling of titles in links in Markdown reader, so that
4888 embedded quotation marks are now handled properly.
4889 + Fixed Markdown reader's handling of embedded brackets in links.
4890 + Fixed Markdown reader so that it only parses bracketed material
4891 as a reference link if there is actually a corresponding key.
4892 + Revised inline code parsing in Markdown reader to conform to
4893 markdown standard. Now any number of `s can begin inline code,
4894 which will end with the same number of `s. For example, to
4895 have two backticks as code, write ``` `` ```. Modified Markdown
4897 + Fixed bug in text-wrapping routine in Markdown and RST writers.
4898 Now LineBreaks no longer cause wrapping problems.
4899 + Supported hexadecimal numerical entity references as well as
4901 + Fixed bug in Markdown reader's handling of underscores and other
4902 inline formatting markers inside reference labels: for example,
4903 in '[A_B]: /url/a_b', the material between underscores was being
4904 parsed as emphasized inlines.
4905 + Changed Markdown reader's handling of backslash escapes so that
4906 only non-alphanumeric characters can be escaped. Strict mode
4907 follows Markdown.pl in only allowing a select group of punctuation
4908 characters to be escaped.
4909 + Modified HTML reader to skip a newline following a <br> tag.
4910 Otherwise the newline will be treated as a space at the beginning
4913 * Made handling of code blocks more consistent. Previously, some
4914 readers allowed trailing newlines, while others stripped them.
4915 Now, all readers strip trailing newlines in code blocks. Writers
4916 insert a newline at the end of code blocks as needed.
4918 * Modified readers to make spacing at the end of output more consistent.
4920 * Minor improvements to LaTeX reader:
4922 + '\thanks' now treated like a footnote.
4923 + Simplified parsing of LaTeX command arguments and options.
4924 commandArgs now returns a list of arguments OR options (in
4925 whatever order they appear). The brackets are included, and
4926 a new stripFirstAndLast function is provided to strip them off
4927 when needed. This fixes a problem in dealing with \newcommand
4928 and \newenvironment.
4930 * Revised RTF writer:
4932 + Default font is now Helvetica.
4933 + An '\f0' is added to each '\pard', so that font resizing works
4936 * Moved handling of "smart typography" from the writers to the Markdown
4937 and LaTeX readers. This allows great simplification of the writers
4938 and more accurate smart quotes, dashes, and ellipses. DocBook can
4939 now use '<quote>'. The '--smart' option now toggles an option in
4940 the parser state rather than a writer option. Several new kinds
4941 of inline elements have been added: Quoted, Ellipses, Apostrophe,
4944 * Changes in HTML writer:
4946 + Include title block in header even when title is null.
4947 + Made javascript obfuscation of emails even more obfuscatory,
4948 by combining it with entity obfuscation.
4950 * Changed default ASCIIMathML text color to black.
4954 + Added --strip-trailing-cr option to diff in runtests.pl, for
4955 compatibility with Windows.
4956 + Added regression tests with footnotes in quote blocks and lists.
4960 + osx-pkg target creates a Mac OS X package (directory). New osx
4961 directory contains files needed for construction of the package.
4962 + osx-dmg target creates a compressed disk image containing the package.
4963 + win-pkg target creates Windows binary package.
4964 + tarball target creates distribution source tarball.
4965 + website target generates pandoc's website automatically, including
4966 demos. New 'web' directory containts files needed for construction
4967 of the website (which will be created as the 'pandoc' subdirectory
4969 + Makefile checks to see if we're running Windows/Cygwin; if so,
4970 a '.exe' extension is added to each executable in EXECS.
4972 * Removed all wrappers except markdown2pdf and html2markdown.
4974 * Added new wrapper hsmarkdown, to be used as a drop-in replacement
4975 for Markdown.pl. hsmarkdown calls pandoc with the '--strict'
4976 option and disables other options.
4978 * Added code to html2markdown that tries to determine the character
4979 encoding of an HTML file, by parsing the "Content-type" meta tag.
4981 + If the encoding can't be determined, then if the content is local,
4982 the local encoding is used; if it comes from a URL, UTF-8 is used
4984 + If input is from STDIN, don't try to determine character encoding.
4985 + Encoding can be specified explicitly using '-e' option.
4987 * Improved warning messages in wrappers:
4989 + Print warning if iconv not available
4990 + More user-friendly error messages in markdown2pdf, when
4995 + Renamed 'Text/Pandoc/HtmlEntities' module to
4996 'Text/Pandoc/Entities'. Also changed function names so as
4997 not to be HTML-specific.
4998 + Refactored SGML string escaping functions from HTML and Docbook
4999 writers into Text/Pandoc/Shared. (escapeSGML, stringToSGML)
5000 + Removed 'BlockQuoteContext' from ParserContext, as it isn't
5002 + Removed splitBySpace and replaced it with a general, polymorphic
5004 + Refactored LaTeX reader for clarity (added isArg function).
5005 + Converted some CR's to LF's in src/ui/default/print.css.
5006 + Added license text to top of source files.
5007 + Added module data for haddock to source files.
5008 + Reformatted code for consistency.
5010 * Rewrote documentation and man pages. Split README into INSTALL
5013 * Split LICENSE into COPYING and COPYRIGHT.
5015 * Removed TODO, since we now maintain ToDo on the wiki.
5017 * Made COPYRIGHT in top level a symlink to debian/copyright, to avoid
5022 * Revamped build process to conform to debian standards and created
5023 a proper debian package. Closes: #391666.
5025 * Modified build process to support GHC 6.6.
5027 + The package can still be compiled using GHC 6.4.2, though because
5028 of dependencies the "make deb" target works only with GHC 6.6+.
5029 + The script 'cabalize' is used to create an appropriate
5030 'Pandoc.cabal' from 'Pandoc.cabal.in', depending on the GHC and
5033 * Refactored template processing (fillTemplates.pl).
5035 * Modified wrapper scripts to make them more robust and portable.
5036 To avoid code duplication and ensure consistency, wrappers are
5037 generated via a templating system from templates in src/wrappers.
5039 + Wrappers now accept multiple filenames, when appropriate.
5040 + Spaces and tabs allowed in filenames.
5041 + getopts shell builtin is used for portable option parsing.
5042 + Improved html2markdown's web grabber code, making it more robust,
5043 configurable and verbose. Added '-e', '-g' options.
