Hi all,
I'm currently trying to improve the ConTeXt output generated by pandoc,
the document convert. There are two questions that we haven't decided
on, and I'd be grateful to receive some feedback from ConTeXt experts on
these issues:
1. As far as I understand, the `\section` syntax currently produced by
pandoc should be considered mkii legacy syntax. We're likely going to
switch to the modern `\startsection`/`\stopsection` syntax instead.
Are there any concerns about retiring the old syntax?
(Side note: pandoc already produces the new syntax, but only when
called with `--section-divs`.)
We keep compatibility as much as possible although there are of course
exceptions (like: we don't need font encodings in mkiv and we hav
eopentype fonts there). So it si quit elikely that these commands will
stay forever.
2. Similarly, I'd like to start wrapping paragraphs with
`\startparagraph`/`\stopparagraph`. It is important for me to get
properly tagged PDF, but this would also make the output more
verbose. Is that something that you would find bothering, or do you
see adding the extra environment by default as an acceptable
practice?
I assume not that many users see (or manipulate) the output so it is
harmless.
Of course, I'd also be happy to get other suggestions on how to improve
pandoc's ConTeXt support.
Thanks in advance,
Albert
