Hello again! This is the revised revised revised proposal:
http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.md http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.html http://maruku.rubyforge.org/proposal.pdf The main change was to use an opening string of brace+colon "{:" to not lock-up the precious "{" forever, so that in the future one could think of using the braces also for other purposes. Changes were: * Changed the syntax for compatibility with a future extension mechanism. The first character in the curly braces must be a colon, optionally followed by a space: {: ref .class #id} The old syntax was `{ref .class #id}`. For ALDs, the new syntax is: {:ref_id: key=val .class #id } instead of: {ref_id}: key=val .class #id Converters that don't use this syntax may just ignore everything which is in curly braces and starts with ":". For regexp-based interpreters, this is the regular expression to get rid of this stuff: `/\{:(\\\}|[^\}])*\}/`. Just do a `gsub` with the empty string, and you are done. * IAL can be put both *before* and *after* the element. There is no ambiguity as a blank line is needed between elements: Paragraph 1 {:par2} Paragraph 2 is equivalent to: Paragraph 1 Paragraph 2 {:par2} * Simplified rules for escaping. -- Andrea Censi "Life is too important to be taken seriously" (Oscar Wilde) Web: http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/~censi _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list Markdown-Discuss@six.pairlist.net http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
