support for pweave (.pmd) #324

Closed HenrikEckermann closed 6 years ago

HenrikEckermann commented 6 years ago

Hi there,

I noticed that there is support for .rmd files (at least for many features: I only noticed that inline code e.g. gets not executed and printed but I guess that requires knitr functionality).

But for .pmd files (Pweave) which uses pandoc markdown, there is no support.

It would be great if you could add that. I think this is practically pandoc markdown support.

Best regards, Henrik

We have direct support for Pandoc, if you need it, check package settings. You'll have to install Pandoc though. By default the package uses markdown-it, which follows commonmark spec more or less (there are some extensions we added, like math and lazy headers, but that's about it).

Reimplementing Pandoc (at least Markdown -> HTML bits) would seem to be rather pointless, and what's more important, is a lot of work. We don't have the manpower for that.
