That is, example lists always behave as if the labels tend to be long, and indenting content to the first non-space character after the label would be awkward. -### Compact and loose lists ### - -Pandoc behaves differently from `Markdown.pl` on some "edge -cases" involving lists. Consider this source: - - + First - + Second: - - Fee - - Fie - - Foe - - + Third - -Pandoc transforms this into a "compact list" (with no `<p>` tags around -"First", "Second", or "Third"), while Markdown puts `<p>` tags around -"Second" and "Third" (but not "First"), because of the blank space -around "Third". Pandoc follows a simple rule: if the text is followed by -a blank line, it is treated as a paragraph. Since "Second" is followed -by a list, and not a blank line, it isn't treated as a paragraph. The -fact that the list is followed by a blank line is irrelevant. (Note: -Pandoc works this way even when the `markdown_strict` format is specified. This -behavior is consistent with the official Markdown syntax description, -even though it is different from that of `Markdown.pl`.) - ### Ending a list ### |
