-I'm pleased to announce the release of pandoc 1.7.
-
-As usual, a source tarball and Windows installer are available
-at <http://code.google.com/p/pandoc/downloads/list>. You can
-also use 'cabal install' to get the latest version from HackageDB:
-
- cabal update
- cabal install pandoc
-
-Thanks to everyone who contributed by filing bug reports or contributing
-patches, and especially to Andrea Rossato, Nathan Gass, Paul Rivier, and
-Puneeth Chaganti for their major contributions to this version.
-
-New features
-------------
-
- * New `textile` reader and writer. Thanks to Paul Rivier for contributing
- the `textile` reader, an almost complete implementation of the textile
- syntax used by the ruby [RedCloth library](http://redcloth.org/textile).
- Resolves Issue #51.
-
- * New `org` writer, for Emacs Org-mode, contributed by Puneeth Chaganti.
-
- * New `json` reader and writer, for reading and writing a JSON
- representation of the native Pandoc AST. These are much faster
- than the `native` reader and writer, and should be used for
- serializing Pandoc to text. To convert between the JSON representation
- and native Pandoc, use `encodeJSON` and `decodeJSON` from
- `Text.JSON.Generic`.
-
- * Support for citations using Andrea Rossato's `citeproc-hs` 0.3.
- You can now write, for example,
-
- Water is wet [see @doe99, pp. 33-35; also @smith04, ch. 1].
-
- and, when you process your document using `pandoc`, specifying
- a citation style using `--csl` and a bibliography using `--bibliography`,
- the citation will be replaced by an appropriately formatted
- citation, and a list of works cited will be added to the end
- of the document.
-
- This means that you can switch effortlessly between different citation
- and bibliography styles, including footnote, numerical, and author-date
- formats. The bibliography can be in any of the following formats: MODS,
- BibTeX, BibLaTeX, RIS, EndNote, EndNote XML, ISI, MEDLINE, Copac, or JSON.
- See the README for further details.
-
- Citations are supported in the markdown reader, using a special
- syntax, and in the LaTeX reader, using natbib or biblatex syntax.
- (Thanks to Nathan Gass for the natbib and biblatex support.)
-
- * A new `--mathjax` option has been added for displaying
- math in HTML using MathJax. Resolves issue #259.
-
- * You can now define LaTeX macros in markdown documents, and pandoc
- will apply them to TeX math. For example,
-
- \newcommand{\plus}[2]{#1 + #2}
- $\plus{3}{4}$
-
- yields `3+4`. Since the macros are applied in the reader, they
- will work in every output format, not just LaTeX.
-
- * LaTeX macros can also be used in LaTeX documents (both in math
- and in non-math contexts).
-
- * Footnotes are now supported in the RST reader. (Note, however,
- that pandoc ignores the numeral or symbol used in the note;
- footnotes are put in an auto-numbered ordered list.)
- Resolves issue #258.
-
- * `markdown2pdf` now supports `--data-dir`.
-
- * Improved prettyprinting in most formats. Lines will be wrapped
- more evenly and duplicate blank lines avoided.
-
- * New `--columns` command-line option sets the column width for
- line wrapping and relative width calculations for tables.
-
- * Made `--smart` work in HTML, RST, and Textile readers, as well
- as markdown.
-
- * Added support for listings package in LaTeX reader
- (Puneeth Chaganti).
-
- * Added support for simple tables in the LaTeX reader.
-
- * Significant performance improvements in many readers and writers.
-
-API and program changes
------------------------
-
- * Moved `Text.Pandoc.Definition` from the `pandoc` package to a new
- auxiliary package, `pandoc-types`. This will make it possible for other
- programs to supply output in Pandoc format, without depending on the whole
- pandoc package.
-
- * Moved generic functions to `Text.Pandoc.Generic`. Deprecated
- `processWith`, replacing it with two functions, `bottomUp` and `topDown`.
- Removed previously deprecated functions `processPandoc` and `queryPandoc`.
-
- * Added `Text.Pandoc.Builder`, for building `Pandoc` structures.
-
- * `Text.Pandoc` now exports association lists `readers` and `writers`.
-
- * Removed deprecated `-C/--custom-header` option.
- Use `--template` instead.
-
- * `--biblio-file` has been replaced by `--bibliography`.
- `--biblio-format` has been removed; pandoc now guesses the format
- from the file extension (see README).
-
- * pandoc will treat an argument as a URI only if it has an
- `http(s)` scheme. Previously pandoc would treat some
- Windows pathnames beginning with `C:/` as URIs.
-
- * pandoc now adds a newline to the end of its output in fragment
- mode (= not `--standalone`).
-
- * The `--sanitize-html` option and the `stateSanitize` field in
- `ParserState` have been removed. Sanitization is better done in the
- resulting HTML using `xss-sanitize`, which is based on pandoc's
- sanitization, but improved.
-
- * Added `Text.Pandoc.Pretty`. This is better suited for pandoc than the
- `pretty` package. Changed all writers that used
- `Text.PrettyPrint.HughesPJ` to use `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` instead.
-
- * Removed `Text.Pandoc.Blocks`. `Text.Pandoc.Pretty` allows you to define
- blocks and concatenate them, so a separate module is no longer needed.
-
- * `Text.Pandoc.Shared`:
-
- + Added `writerColumns` to `WriterOptions`.
- + Added `normalize`.
- + Removed unneeded prettyprinting functions:
- `wrapped`, `wrapIfNeeded`, `wrappedTeX`, `wrapTeXIfNeeded`, `hang'`,
- `BlockWrapper`, `wrappedBlocksToDoc`.
- + Made `splitBy` take a test instead of an element.
- + Added `findDataFile`, refactored `readDataFile`.
- + Added `stringify`. Rewrote `inlineListToIdentifier` using `stringify`.
- + Fixed `inlineListToIdentifier` to treat '\160' as ' '.
-
- * `Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML`:
-
- + Removed `rawHtmlBlock`, `anyHtmlBlockTag`, `anyHtmlInlineTag`,
- `anyHtmlTag`, `anyHtmlEndTag`, `htmlEndTag`, `extractTagType`,
- `htmlBlockElement`, `htmlComment`
- + Added `htmlTag`, `htmlInBalanced`, `isInlineTag`, `isBlockTag`,
- `isTextTag`
-
- * Moved `smartPunctuation` from `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown`
- to `Text.Pandoc.Readers.Parsing`, and parameterized it with
- an inline parser.
-
- * Ellipses are no longer allowed to contain spaces.
- Previously we allowed '. . .', ' . . . ', etc. This caused
- too many complications, and removed author's flexibility in
- combining ellipses with spaces and periods.
-
- * Allow linebreaks in URLs (treat as spaces). Also, a string of
- consecutive spaces or tabs is now parsed as a single space. If you have
- multiple spaces in your URL, use `%20%20`.
-
- * `Text.Pandoc.Parsing`:
-
- + Removed `refsMatch`.
- + Hid `Key` constructor.
- + Removed custom `Ord` and `Eq` instances for `Key`.
- + Added `toKey` and `fromKey` to convert between `Key` and `[Inline]`.
- + Generalized type on `readWith`.
-
- * Small change in calculation of relative widths of table columns.
- If the size of the header > the specified column width, use
- the header size as 100% for purposes of calculating
- relative widths of columns.
-
- * Markdown writer now uses some pandoc-specific features when `--strict`
- is not specified: \ newline is used for a hard linebreak instead of
- two spaces then a newline. And delimited code blocks are used when
- there are attributes.
-
- * HTML writer: improved gladTeX output by setting ENV appropriately
- for display or inline math (Jonathan Daugherty).
-
- * LaTeX writer: Use `\paragraph`, `\subparagraph` for level 4,5 headers.
-
- * LaTeX reader:
-
- + `\label{foo}` and `\ref{foo}` now become `{foo}` instead of `(foo)`.
- + `\index{}` commands are skipped.
-
- * Added `fontsize` variable to default LaTeX template.
- This makes it easy to set the font size using `markdown2pdf`:
- `markdown2pdf -V fontsize=12pt input.txt`.
-
- * The `COLUMNS` environment variable no longer has any effect.
-
-Under-the-hood improvements
----------------------------
-
- * Completely rewrote HTML reader using tagsoup as a lexer. The
- new reader is faster and more accurate.
-
- * Replaced `escapeStringAsXML` with a faster version.
-
- * Remove duplications in documentation by generating the
- pandoc man page from README, using `MakeManPage.hs`.
-
- * Improvements to testing framework: Removed old `tests/RunTests.hs`.
- `cabal test` now runs `test-pandoc`, which is built from
- `src/test-pandoc.hs` when the `tests` Cabal flag is set.
- This allows the testing framework to have its own dependencies.
-
- * Added `Interact.hs` to make it easier to use ghci while developing.
- `Interact.hs` loads `ghci` from the `src` directory, specifying
- all the options needed to load pandoc modules (including
- specific package dependencies, which it gets by parsing
- dist/setup-config).
-
- * Added `Benchmark.hs`, testing all readers + writers using criterion.
-
- * Added `stats.sh`, to make it easier to collect and archive
- benchmark and lines-of-code stats.
-
-Bug fixes
----------
-
- * Filenames are encoded as UTF8. Resolves Issue #252.
-
- * Handle curly quotes better in `--smart` mode. Previously, curly quotes
- were just parsed literally, leading to problems in some output formats.
- Now they are parsed as `Quoted` inlines, if `--smart` is specified.
- Resolves Issue #270.
-
- * Markdown reader:
-
- + Allow HTML comments as inline elements in markdown.
- So, `aaa <!-- comment --> bbb` can be a single paragraph.
- + Fixed superscripts with links: `^[link](/foo)^` gets
- recognized as a superscripted link, not an inline note followed by
- garbage.
- + Fixed regression, making markdown reference keys case-insensitive again.
- Resolves Issue #272.
- + Properly handle abbreviations (like `Mr.`) at the end of a line.
- + Better handling of intraword underscores, avoiding exponential
- slowdowns in some cases. Resolves Issue #182.
-
- * LaTeX reader:
-
- + Improved parsing of preamble.
- Previously you'd get unexpected behavior on a document that
- contained `\begin{document}` in, say, a verbatim block.
- + Allow spaces between '\begin' or '\end' and '{'.
- + Support \L and \l.
-
- * OpenDocument writer: don't print raw TeX.
-
- * Markdown writer: Fixed bug in `Image`. URI was getting unescaped twice!
-
- * LaTeX and ConTeXt: Escape `[` and `]` as `{[}` and `{]}`.
- This avoids unwanted interpretation as an optional argument.
-
- * `:` now allowed in HTML tags. Resolves Issue #274.
