This means that "Network Security RD" becomes "Network%20Security%20R%26D" (just an example from page I was working on). This is useful for passing text strings as GET or Midgard Active page arguments. (varname:f); mark up formatted text. Empty lines will be replaced with P will automatically, and you can include HTML markup in [...] delimiters (anything between those will be passed unchanged with the [ and ] removed. It does a great lot more but for the life of me I can't find the markup parser. There is also :F which makes all paragraphs shorter than 10 words without period a H2-level headline and lines beginning with a dash into unnumbered listings. My experience is that almost all of Web content will fit nicely in these rules, especially as you can embed HTML code into it as needed.

Not in the version that is now in CVS, although that will naturally not necesarily be as up to date as the code that Jukka is still working on. If so, it is very good, I'd like to add some LaTeX-like formating after 1.2.6 will be released to make life easier for scientific applications of Midgard. Current implementation of parser has some limitations in extension scheme (you'll need to rewrite parser at least in two or three places in different packages), so modularizing it would be great. Actually, I've already have LaTeX-like formatting done in PHP using regular expressions and possibly support for PCRE in the text parser would be useful. I mean that text formating modules could use generalized API for accessing PCRE library like it is done with DB support. Seems like you allready put some thought in this. I would welcome this concept, so if you have ideas on this API I'd gladly discuss the remifications. Then creating parsers would be more efficient (it could be relatively simple to create parser for Word-like format, as those apps already done in Perl and C). Thus, we could achieve the same feature set that proprietary systems (like NPS) sell for thousands of dollars. Especially it would be great if those parsers could be dynamically loaded (hence, optimisation for memory footprint will be very effective). Also real document flow is impossible without those things. Hmm, nice. But the current parser does all it's work in memory; I'm not sure I'd want to serve many Word documents like this concurrently. If we want to use this we may want to have a way to circumvent this. Emile -- This is The Midgard Project's mailing list.
