default language for codeblocks

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

see the text below for a description of the enhancement, which i posted
recently to pandoc-discuss.

a diff is attached; please feel free to use/modify/ignore it.

note that i have not updated README to mention the new option

---

i love the new syntax-highlighting of codeblocks, but the one downside
for me is having to use delimited-codeblock sytax and the language
annotation for all my code snippets, where previously the indented-
code syntax was so simple and readable.

but it was easy (what nice code!) to add a --default-codeblock-class
option to pandoc, which is then used to populate a new writer option
that specifies the classes to use for a codeblock when none have been
specified (which is the result of an indentation-style codeblock).

now all my code is magically highlighted, without changing the
markdown at all!  (and for the rare case of code that shouldn't be
highlighted, i can use the delimited syntax to give some non-assigned
"language" like "ignore".)

Changed state: Fixed

I've added this -- with a slightly different name, --default-code-classes, and
slightly different behavior -- it inserts the classes in the reader, not the 
writer,
and only for indented code blocks.  Thanks for the patch.

Looking at the patch, I'm not sure - is there anyway to specify the default 
language
inline? I'm thinking of Gitit.
