[sword-devel] Diatheke and MarkDown format?

[David Haslam]

A thread was begun in December 2015 with this topic. My reminder was sent on 21 
November, last year.

See 
http://sword-dev.350566.n4.nabble.com/Diatheke-and-MarkDown-format-tt4655468.html#a4657703

Is anyone willing to step forward to develop the code for this?

Best regards,

David

You would not, because it had be kept out of releases. Only people building 
against SVNhead would have access to it. It will be in 1.8.0

Thanks Peter,

I'm sure you're the best candidate for the task, in view of the stirling
work you did by adding LaTeX format to its output capabilities.

However, I've yet to see any set of Sword utilities for Windows that
actually do that, as I observed back in October 2015.

I have done some work on this but have nothing to offer for immediate 
inclusion. I probably should reactivate my own Git repo and see if I can share 
what I have done/are doing to make this happen.

Not likely.

Oh - it would be nice if someone could implement this and include it in
SWORD 1.8.x before Christmas.

[sword-devel] Diatheke and MarkDown format?

[David Haslam]

When outputting plain text, diatheke currently makes a half-hearted attempt
to use a tiny bit of MarkDown format for anything that was wrapped in the
OSIS hi element, whether italics or bold type etc, which gets wrapped
between two asterisks.

See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown

IMHO, the plain text default output format shouldn't do this.

It would be better to add a fully fledged output format for MarkDown, 
and leave the default to just plain text with no frills.

One of those rare occasions, eh, Peter ?  :)
