similar to: the next mountain for markdown to climb up

I've put together two small web apps to demonstrate pandoc: 1. [html2x](http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/html2x.html) can convert most web pages to markdown, reStructuredText, DocBook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, RTF, or groff man. Bookmarklets are provided. html2x is modeled on Aaron Swartz's [html2text](http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/html2text/), but it's faster, supports multiple output formats,

The html document various characters like ? \xa0 ? \xa9 (Copyright symbol) (and others). I tried using html2text.py but it didn't like these characters. Any ideas on how I can use iconv or another tool to convert documents like this so I can then convert to Markdown? I don't want to do manually as I have around 500+ documents. Jeremy C. Reed

Hello, I'm trying to render the following page in markdown: http://lua-users.org/wiki/RiciLake This page was converted into markdown using Aaron Swartz's html2text [1]. And then rendered to HTML using Niklas Frykholm's markdown.lua [2]. Everything works quite nicely... except that under 'Lua Enhancements'... the very first header is not rendered as a header, but as

I've just released an early version of a Markdown implementation in Haskell (using the Parsec parser combinator library). pandoc converts Markdown to HTML, LaTeX, reStructuredText, rich text format, and S5 HTML slide shows. It partially converts HTML, LaTeX, and reStructuredText to Markdown. It also makes it easy to include LaTeX math on HTML pages, using Peter Jipsen's ASCIIMathML.js.

Hello! On the markdown site it is written: "Markdown?s syntax is intended for one purpose: to be used as a format for writing for the web.", although recently I moved from Emacs Muse to Markdown markup for writing my study notes and plan to use it for writing technical documentation as well. However, in order to be able to use the features I had in Muse, I write using

Estimados todos, quizas la pregunta es simple pero no puedo arreglarlo. Cuando trato de exportar mi archivo a PDf usando el R Markdown me arroja este error: pandoc.exe: pdflatex not found. pdflatex is needed for pdf output.Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 41Además: Warning message:comando ejecutado '"C:/Program Files/RStudio/bin/pandoc/pandoc" +RTS -K512m -RTS

Hola: Ya se ha comentado aquí algo sobre knitr, creo que la alternativa a Sweave (al que le tengo un gran cariño). La cosa va muy bien y lejos, os comento muy breve y os adjunto dos ficheros para muestra. Estoy buscando una forma de escribir potente y ágil para que los alumnos trabaje al cien por cien sin necesidad de aprender LaTeX (aqltugc). Para eso había encontrado markdown pero ¿cómo hacer

Hello, I've created a markdown gem in Ruby that lets you use your markdown library of choice. Preconfigured markdown libraries include: kramdown, redcarpet, bluecloth, maruku, rpeg-markdown, rdiscount, pandoc-ruby. Usage in your Ruby code: require 'markdown' Markdown.new( 'Hello World' ).to_html The gem also includes a little command line tool. Try markdown

I've written an implementation of Markdown in C, for people like me who shout BAH! and wave their canes at modern programming languages. (I needed a decent markup language for my website and weblog, and didn't want to have to install any new programming languages on the machine.) Discount <http://www.pell.portland.or.us/~orc/Code/discount> has been in production for the past two and

i am considering writing converters between my "zen markup language' and "markdown", but i don't know which version of markdown to target. i'd think it'd be the "pandoc" version, and i understand that to be closest to "multimarkdown", but gruber has said he "disagrees" with "almost every part" of multimarkdown's syntax

I've just released a new version of pandoc (0.4), a program for converting between different markup and markdown formats. Using pandoc, you can convert markdown-formatted plain text to HTML, LaTeX, ConTeXt, DocBook XML, groff man pages, S5 HTML slide shows, RTF, reStructuredText, and (using the associated shell script markdown2pdf) PDF. You can also convert HTML, LaTeX, and reStructuredText

I am a professional freelance writer and mystery novelist, and I often work on a variety of systems -- Linux/Unix, Mac, PC and my AlphaSmart. For that reason, I write the majority of my articles, short stories and novels using Markdown, which I then convert HTML for the Web or (via Pandoc) to RTF/ODT/etc. for publication. In support of that work, I've recently developed a utility, mkdwc,

It has been a while since I've announced a pandoc release on this list, so here's an update. The latest version of pandoc supports conversion of markdown to a host of other formats, including * HTML formats: XHTML, HTML5, and HTML slide shows using Slidy, S5, or DZSlides * Word processor formats: Microsoft Word docx, OpenOffice odt * Ebooks: EPUB * Documentation formats: DocBook, GNU

I'm pleased to announce the release of Pandoc 0.3, with many improvements and bug fixes. Highlights: - A real markdown parser, not based on regex substitutions. - [More accurate] and [faster], in many cases, than Markdown.pl. - Multiple output formats--HTML, Docbook, LaTeX, reStructuredText, RTF, S5 slide shows--all generated natively, with no XSLT postprocessing. - Converts *to* markdown

emmanuel said: > Thanks again for the detailed comments. well, sir, you deserve them. and i must say that your responses are uniformly impressive, both individually and -- most especially -- in their aggregate. the only one of them that would still wrinkle my forehead is the thought of possibly limiting the program only to chrome. i believe that might be a decisive turn-off to too many

Dear Markdown enthusiasts out there! Sure, I don't need to tell you how great an versatile Markdown is for writing standard documents. I think, that it would make a really great universal standard as a programming documentation language, too, and maybe "CodeDown" would be a good title for this approach. The idea started when I was trying to document some PHP scripts. I need to

Hi there! I recently ported Aaron Swartz' html2text.py to PHP and would like to know what you think about it. Any suggestions and bug reports are much appreciated. Check it out: http://milianw.de/projects/html2text/ Note: Michel Fortins PHP Markdown Extended is supported (that is: tables and definitionlist are supported in some way) There are still some bugs but I hope to sort them out

i'll be doing some experiments myself, but i thought i'd ask here first about back-translation and round-tripping with markdown and its xhtml output. the object is to take markdown output, reduce it back to a markdown text-file, then regenerate the output again and compare it with the "original" output, repeating if necessary until there exists a pair of files that give perfect

I'm pleased to announce the release of pandoc version 1.0.0.1. Pandoc is a general text markup format converter. In addition to strict markdown and an extended markdown syntax (including tables, footnotes, definition lists, enhanced ordered lists, LateX math, etc.), pandoc can read HTML, LaTeX, and reStructuredText. It can write HTML, LaTeX, ConTeXt, DocBook, RTF, OpenDocument XML, ODT,
