Can't generate Checklist.html #18

Closed mauke closed 1 year ago

I made changes to Checklist.md, but Checklist.html cannot be rebuilt:

perl md2html.pl
Converting Checklist.md to Checklist.html
Cannot find file -o at /usr/bin/multimarkdown line 127.
multimarkdown failed!
make: *** [Makefile:924: Checklist.html] Error 2

What version of multimarkdown are you using that understands a -o option?

FWIW I've just pushed a commit that prefers cmark over multimarkdown if it is available

$ multimarkdown --version

MultiMarkdown 6 v6.6.0
Copyright © 2016 - 2020 Fletcher T. Penney.
$ cmark --version
cmark 0.30.3 - CommonMark converter
(C) 2014-2016 John MacFarlane

Alternatives welcome :) They both seem rather old

Ah, thanks. The multimarkdown on Ubuntu comes from libtext-multimarkdown-perl (-> https://metacpan.org/pod/Text::MultiMarkdown), which is a lot older.

Newest uses pandoc. If noit available, cmark, if not available multimarkdown. What I see is that none add the required HTML header section, so that is added for all.

Does that work for you too? Should I guard the multimarkdown against missing -o?

This looks good. Thank you!
