AttrKey AlphanumericAscii #38

Closed KammutierSpule closed 8 years ago

KammutierSpule commented 8 years ago

Hi Fletcher, Are there any reasons that AttrKey = < AlphanumericAscii+ > does not allow other kind of characters? I was looking for ':' '_' '-'

I thought it could be useful to add attributes on ODT that has this kind of format: text:anchor-type

Do you think there are any issues with other syntax while adding this to the attribute keys?

Attributes are used in HTML, LaTeX, and ODF. At the time this feature was created acceptable characters were limited. It may be possible to use a more expanded range of characters now, but I have not validated it across all use cases.

I implemented the capability to add (raw) attributes to fodt images (inline and block) on my branch: https://github.com/KammutierSpule/MultiMarkdown-5/commit/c4942cffc5778c59e924132fb02ba21158c29cb1

The attributes used in MMD are designed to be as generic as possible. I'm not sure this makes sense for the default behavior, but is obviously fine for you to use as you like on your own fork.
