turn quotes ``...'' into XML quote <Q>...</Q> #85

Open mohamed-barakat opened 10 years ago

mohamed-barakat commented 10 years ago

Would it be possible to support ``...'' as ...?

fingolfin commented 10 years ago

In other words, turn ``...'' into

  <Q>...</Q>

What will be the syntax here? Two ` for the beginning of the quote and two ' for the end? Or is this something more advanced?

This conflicts with our Markdown compatibility, in particular the use of backticks to mark code sections. As such, I am wary about implementing this, at least in the proposed form. But perhaps a variation is possible that would still be useful? Not quite sure how that should look like, though. Perhaps knowing some usage examples for <Q> might be helpful for this.

We could use the notion of marking lines beginning with > as quotes, which is however harder to implement. Would that be a solution?

That's a different kind of quote. We are talking about "quote" (possible with "nice" typographical quotes).
