similar to: Treetop or like grammar for Markdown (in Ruby)

Markersdown: I was fooling around with lua and decided to write a markdown parser using the terrific lpeg library. Here's the result: http://github.com/jgm/lunamark/tree/master There are already two markdown libraries for lua, one a native lua implementation based on global substitutions, the other a binding to discount. What makes lunamark different is that it is based on 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

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]:

Hey Ryan, I asked this question awhile back, but any support planned for table returning functions, or stored procedures? I''m envisioning basically a mutable model class where you have 1 or more instance variables defined (with default values) that are used in the SQL queries as input parameters. When you instantiate the class you can specifically define these parameters or use the

Somewhat. I am maintaining the SQLServer adapter but I''m not doing quite as much as I''d like with it and you certainly can''t call

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

I'm curious how people think the following *should* be interpreted: - one 2. two http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/?markdown=-++one%0D%0A2.+two%0D%0A%0D%0A As you can see, implementations split into three groups here: (a) treat as an unordered list Markdown.pl, Python markdown, MultiMarkdown, BlueCloth, MarkdownJ, Showdown (b) treat as an unordered list with an ordered

I don't believe this question has been discussed before on this list: Should whitespace be allowed between the bracketed and parenthesized parts of an inline link? For example, [foo] (/url) The markdown syntax documentation says explicitly that a space is allowed between the two parts of a *reference-style* link: > Reference-style links use a second set of square brackets, inside

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

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,

Hi Jason ! Hmmm, this is good and bad news: Good: ruby hooks means I could use a single pass to parse textile customizations in zena instead of running two parsers: nice. Bad: I have just switched to ragel for QueryBuilder to parse pseudo sql and I fear your shortcomings (if that''s an english phrase). Could you describe more precisely what you are missing with ragel ? I''m

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,

I am using Cucumber 0.2.3 and am having problems running a single feature. In particular, the cucumber Textmate bundle was not working so I traced it back and discovered that I could not run single files or features from the command line either. My setup has the following line in cucumber.yml default: -r features/support/env.rb -r features/support/plain.rb -r features/steps

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

Getting this error. I have the treetop, polyglot, and rspec libraries in the load_path (not installed as a gem). Any ideas?

I am having a heck of a time understanding the new rest craze in rails. what I think I understand so far: 1 rest is about the way we use http to access information on the internet. 2 http was created with nouns and verbs in mind, but the only verbs that are supported in browsers and server software today are ''post'' and ''get''. Other useful verbs include put

I recently subscribed and saw in the archive that Eric Astor was asking for a formal grammar (unlikely the first time for such request.) Currently there are a few problems in making such a thing so I was curious if Mr. Gruber has made any thoughts about moving toward one? This would also allow a more ?clean? parser which would get rid of some of the current problems (bad nesting[^1],

I don''t even know how it''d be possible (through Selenium?), but I want it. I want to see if my stupid CSS hacks break. I want to say: describe "#nav-column" do body = something("#body-column") it "should line up at the top" do dom[:top].should_be == body.dom[:top] end it "should always be to the right" do

Hi, I have written my own implementation of markdown in Scala. I only later realized there is already one ( <http://tristanhunt.com/projects/knockoff/> ), but I put quite some work into mine and I think it is never bad to have alternatives, so I wanted to release it anyway. I want to use the same BSD License as the original markdown, but before I put it out into the wild I wanted to ask
