similar to: Extending SuperRedCloth

Hello, I am in a bit of a bind. I need to reliably parse mediawiki markup to html, and the only parser that I can find (mediacloth) has a lot to be desired, so I would like to extend something that works and parse mediawiki markup. My question to this list is should I start working on RedCloth or SuperRedCloth or is there a difference as far as extending them? Also does anyone know of a write up

SuperRedCloth v1.160 and svn rev 163 don''t work the textile commands that specify table headers instead of table data. Here''s a simple test: require ''superredcloth'' w = "|_. a|_. b|_. c|\n|1|2|3|" h = SuperRedCloth.new(w).to_html puts h <table> <tr> <td>_. a</td>

Good day to the parliament of RedCloth followers gathered here. Grave matters at hand!! I''m personally quite unhappy with the state of RedCloth and am reluctant to release the code in the repository. I can''t say if the code works with any confidence because I can''t generate the (Poignant) Guide with the current RedCloth. I know some things are fixed, but I''m

I tried to install RedCloth-3.274 in jruby (trunk) but the install failed when RedCloth tried to build the C code using mkmf: I forget whether SuperRedcloth ever did build in JRuby?? I know Hpricot (which also uses ragel which can compile to Java code) works in JRuby -- with the patch here: https://code.whytheluckystiff.net/hpricot/ticket/131) I might be confusing the two ... FYI: If you

Who really uses strikethroughs?? This is one of the most common tripwires in RedCloth. You are the friend--the only friend--who has offered to help. Obviously em dashes. I died in -2006- wait, no, two-thousand-FIVE! Obviously strikethrough. I''m going on a trip - a long one - to the Virgin Islands. That''s got to be en dashes. Such a cheap, no-hassle, no-worry

RedCloth master generates a spurios <li> element when a numbered or undumbered list is followed by three or more newlines. RedCloth.new("* one\n* two\n* three \n\n\n").to_html #=> "<ul>\n\t<li>one</li>\n\t<li>two</li>\n\t<li>three</li>\n</ul>\n<li>" # note extra trailing <li> outside <ul> A colleague

Hi, all. I haven''t felt at liberty to go axing test cases, but some of the 33 that are failing now are ones I don''t think we want to pass? cruft coming from Markdown or made up to fill a gap some years ago. I''d like to float the proposition that we make Super (and thus RedCloth 4) behave as identically as possible to Textile2 as working on

Good news! SuperRedCloth is down to just five failing tests! I was down to 10 or so in mid-February but then I added test cases from "The official reference manual for Textile 2", which added 97 new tests, many of them failing. I''m happy to say, they''re almost all passing now. Four of these last five I just need to check with you on before I deviate from

1.) What is everyone''s preference on NCRs or character entities? Textile 2 uses decimal NCRs, so a less-than character becomes &#60; whereas RedCloth (3.04 and prior) used &lt;. What is your preference? It gets tough because &#39; (a straight single quote) doesn''t have a character entity equivalent. 2.) How do you feel about encoding characters like quotes

Up to now, the tests have been running with whitespace stripped out. Newlines and tabs are insignificant in HTML, so I figured why bother with them? Now I realize why: they''re significant in pre tags and they also make your code look pretty! I''ve been working to get SRC output to roughly match Tetxile2''s as far as tabs and newlines go. It''s tough and

I maintain a web application frozen to version Ruby 1.8.6 and RedCloth 3.0.4 Whenever I insert a newline followed by a white space, SuperRedCloth, wraps the text with <pre><code> tags. Say for example I write ############### Hi This is me ############### This piece of text gets translated to <p>Hi</p><pre><code>This is me</code></pre>

Hello, I would like to install SuperRedCloth on my server, here is the entire log : gem install superredcloth --source http://code.whytheluckystiff.net Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing superredcloth: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb install superredcloth

I''m running jruby trunk which has integrated rubygems 1.0.0 and when I try and install mongrel with gem it blows up when the fastthread dependency tries to do a native compilation. I couldn''t find a copy of the gemspec in the svn checkout but looking at the one installed when gem installing mongrel didn''t show any platform differentiation. There is platform

New gems (source and win32): gem install superredcloth --source http://code.whytheluckystiff.net Use it like: SuperRedCloth.new("_huh?_").to_html Okay, getting close! A lot more tests are passing. There are still about 50 tests failing. Most of these are due to ol/ul list problems. Here''s what''s still broken: * Options (:hard_breaks, :filter_html, etc.) *

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

I was just wondering if I should upgrade to using SRC, as it sounds like it is going to be what becomes RedCloth 4. Reading the wiki and the announcements it''s supposedly under very active development, nearing release, and the breaking options are next on the list. Since there hadn''t been an update in a little while, I was curious where it stands now. The break handling in

I''m having all kinds of fun trying to get HTML to work "properly" in SRC (mild sarcasm). I''m still working on the problem, but wanted to run it by the group. Currently, Textile2 lets you put in HTML as long as it''s in the same block (i.e. no double-returns). <ul> <li>You can put HTML code right in Textile.</li> <li>It will

Okay, update: gem install superredcloth --source http://code.whytheluckystiff.net Or: http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/dist/superredcloth-1.160.tgz This one has better list, table and <notextile> support. I am close to releasing a SuperRedCloth on Rubyforge, so PLEASE! help me test this out by trying it on your personal wikis and blogs. Still to be done: * support for
