From d3544dc6f7a2386c4a68a85110f322b50332cfbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John MacFarlane Date: Sat, 18 Apr 2015 10:13:32 -0700 Subject: Markdown definition lists: don't require indent for first line. Previously the body of the definition (after the `:` or `~` marker) needed to be in column 4. This commit relaxes that requirement, to better match the behavior of PHP Markdown Extra. So, now this is a valid definition list: foo : bar This patch also helps resolve a potentially ambiguity with table captions: foo : bar ----- table ----- Is "bar" a definition, or the caption for the table? We'll count it as a caption for the table.
