I need a little help with `decode` vs `decode-flow` in Scribble. (Also, this thread is about a question I wasn't able to find answered anywhere, so hopefully it will lead to a solution that others can also use.)
Sometimes it's really useful to incorporate Markdown-formatted content into the middle of a Scribble document. (Let's not argue about this, please!) My assumption is that the Markdown document lives in a separate file (I'm not trying to do any clever textual inlining). Thanks to Greg Hendershott, I'm almost there! I use https://github.com/greghendershott/markdown Here are two versions of the inlining function: @(require markdown markdown/scrib scribble/decode) @(define (markdown-inline file) (decode-flow (xexprs->scribble-pres (with-input-from-file file read-markdown)))) @(define (markdown-part file) (decode (xexprs->scribble-pres (with-input-from-file file read-markdown)))) As a practical matter, `markdown-part` needs to take lots of extra arguments to create the appropriate part instead of just producing a title-less section. More importantly, you often don't want a separate section: you just want to "splice" the content into the current context. `markdown-inline` works great for this purpose, *except* if the included Markdown file contains any sections of its own, e.g., This is text. > Lorem ipsum # Section ## Subsection Then I get this error: decode-flow: contract violation expected: pre-flow? given: (part-start 0 #f '((part "section")) (style #f '()) '("Section")) Any recommendations on how to create a "splicing" version that also respects having sub-sections, or is that impossible? (I've tried pulling out parts of the `part`, etc., but without success.) Thanks! Shriram -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
