similar to: lunamark - markdown in lua using a PEG grammar

Markdowners: I've released version 0.4.1 of peg-markdown, a C implementation of markdown. peg-markdown uses Ian Piumarta's peg/leg parser generator to generate a parser from a parsing expression grammar (PEG). You can inspect the grammar for markdown at http://github.com/jgm/peg-markdown/tree/HEAD/markdown_parser.leg peg-markdown now provides both a C library and a standalone

I'm pleased to announce the release of lunamark 0.2. This is a complete rewrite of the 2009 version, with a new API. I am very grateful to Hans Hagen, who resurrected the project for use in ConTeXt and made major improvements in the efficiency and performance of the code. Lunamark is a lua library and command-line program for conversion of markdown to other textual formats. Currently HTML,

Has anyone seen any attempts to give Markdown a PEG (parsing expressions grammar) recognizable by some ruby PEG parser generator grammar like Treetop? http://treetop.rubyforge.org/

I've just uploaded an implementation of markdown in C. It defines the syntax using a PEG grammar, so it should be easy to extend and modify. Right now it can produce output in either HTML or LaTeX, but it would be simple to add other output formats. It's very fast: on my machine, it converts a 178K markdown file in 0.14 seconds (vs. 9.6 seconds for the latest Markdown.pl and 0.57 seconds

There's been a lot of discussion on this list about creating a formal grammar for markdown. I had a go at writing a [parsing expression grammar] for markdown. I used Haskell and John Meacham's Frisby PEG parsing library, but it should not be too hard to port the grammar to PEG libraries in other languages. [parsing expression grammar]:

This is something that I've been asked for many times. So today I'm announcing that all future versions of PHP Markdown and PHP SmartyPants will be encapsulated in a parser class. This has two major benefits: 1. It should make extensions to the syntax easier to create and maintain as it is now possible to now extend the parser by replacing (overriding) only the relevant

Dear fellow Markdown enthusiasts, As you all might know, Markdown is a highly context sensitive language that the (often regex-based) syntax highlighting mechanisms in existing editors struggle to keep up with. I have taken John MacFarlane's excellent peg-markdown compiler and modified its parser to function as an interpreter for syntax highlighting purposes. The end result is a

How can we improve URL detection in Markdown? I posted a question on Stack Overflow and happened to click a URL in my post. To my surprise, it wasn't functional, and it took three different, nonintuitive manipulations before I achieved a functional URL. Stack Overflow says "not my problem", so I'm deferring to Markdown itself. Here's a

This update to PHP Markdown fix a bug that slipped in the WordPress interface with the last update. It also introduce a new "feature": you can now instruct the parser to ignore HTML tags and/or entities in the input. You can do this by instantiating yourself the parser and setting the `no_markup` or `no_entities` properties to true: $parser = new Markdown_Parser;

Hello everybody, I don't quite understand how the proposed regex library works but I know that PEG parser generators use a super-set of regex functionality to define their parsers. There's also a nice one on Google code called YARDparser that uses templates based on PEGs to generate efficient recursive-decent parsers. Furthermore, my partner and I am working on an interpreter for PEG

ok, while i was in the process of writing that last post, fletcher and john weighed in themselves. that's good. i can say some things that they can't, though, so i will. fletcher told you how multimarkdown is booming, and it was an impressive list. what you might not realize is, he _undersold_ it. it is even bigger than he described, and it's gonna _double_ in size in the next

Hi All. I've just started using Markdown for my blog. So far it seems quite nice, but the one issue I've run into is a lack of "native" support for footnotes. I think that Daring Fireball's footnote style makes a lot of sense, and that's what I intend to use. However, it is a bit cumbersome to implement that style from within Markdown. I notice that the PHP

Here is another implementation of Markdown, this time in c++ using the Boost Spirit library. Spirit Markdown is written in (hopefully!) idiomatic modern c++ and a full suite of unit tests are provided. It is licensed under the Boost Software License (OSI compliant). The purpose of writing this is: * for me to gain expertise in the use of Spirit, both through direct experience and public review,

While we're talking about new syntax, I thought that I'd throw out an idea I had to extend the footnote syntax as it currently exists in PHP Markdown Extra. I'm not sure that it's the best way to solve this particular problem, but I figured I'd throw it out there to get any comments on it. It relates to the problem of specifying a document's GUID. A few months back,

Markdowners, just a short heads-up to a newly released Markdown implementation: "pegdown" (http://github.com/sirthias/pegdown) implements a Java Markdown-to-HTML processor based on a PEG parser with the grammar being based on John MacFarlanes C implementation "peg-markdown". pegdown uses "parboiled" (http://www.parboiled.org) for the actual parsing work and, as

Hi all I've started writing an OS X Markdown "editor"[1] that semi-formats your markdown document as you write it. I just wanted to put something together, so went with a regexp-based setup for parsing -- Not ideal! I'd really like to use an existing parser, but I need to get access to the parse-tree *with* character offets, rather than just html output, as I'm adding

Hello, How to correctly made multiline code block within a list, like.. * foo * bar * ``` Code 1 Code 2 Code 3 ``` * Another list item The above markup is not working, what I want is Code 1, Code 2 and Code 3 appear in different lines. Thanks.

Hi all, I''m planning a rig that has SuSE linux in Dom0 and Windows7 in a DomU with the PCIe video card passed through to the Win7-U and an AMD system''s onboard video for the Linux system. Couple xen-newbie questions: does my plan work in such that I intend to have the onboard video''s DVI and the video card (at present an NV GTX-460) on the same monitor and switch

Hi Sam, Thanks for your reply. I am implementing my research (http://www.it.usyd.edu.au/~suri/Detecting%20Buffer%20Over.pdf), a translation of LLVM to a simple non-deterministic language to detect buffer overflows. It involves (1) printing a control flow graph of basic blocks of a function (easily done) (2) translating each llvm statement to a corresponding data flow language (needs ASTs to

For current FunctionPass passes, each function in the current module will be visited _once_ under some order. If I have an algorithm that needs to visit each function more than once in order to generate the final result, how could it be arranged under the current LLVM Pass framework? Could somebody point me a pass that currently doing this? Thank you Chuck
