1515 Pandoc is a Haskell library for converting from one markup format to
1616 another, and a command-line tool that uses this library. It can read
1717 markdown and (subsets of) reStructuredText, HTML, and LaTeX, and it
1818 can write markdown, reStructuredText, HTML, LaTeX, DocBook, RTF, and
1919 S5 HTML slide shows.
20+ .
21+ Pandoc extends standard markdown syntax with footnotes, embedded LaTeX,
22+ and other features. A compatibility mode is provided for those who
23+ need a drop-in replacement for Markdown.pl. Included wrapper scripts
24+ make it easy to convert markdown documents to PDFs and to convert web
25+ pages to markdown documents.
26+ .
27+ In contrast to existing tools for converting markdown to HTML, which
28+ use regex substitutions, pandoc has a modular design: it consists of a
29+ set of readers, which parse text in a given format and produce a native
30+ representation of the document, and a set of writers, which convert
31+ this native representation into a target format. Thus, adding an input
32+ or output format requires only adding a reader or writer.
