restructuredtext? #10

Open Nadano opened 4 years ago

Nadano commented 4 years ago

When writing a document with a lot of tables or formatting needs I believe markdown is sometimes not enough. Looking for alternatives I found that, without reaching the complexity of latex, restructuredtext (rst) (+ sphinx) offers a lot of opportunities with very little overload .

I was wondering how difficult it would be to make your extension work in restructuredtext (rst). If in not wrong the differences in implementation with markdown are quite small: instead of @, rst require :cite: and rather than having the bibtex file declared in the yaml header, rst declares it at the bibliography insertion point .. bibliography:: refs.bib

More information please refer to: https://sphinxcontrib-bibtex.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html

Do you believe it would be possible to implement it easily?

My VSCode extension just interfaces with the Better Bib Text extension for Zotero using Cite as you Write (https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/citing/cayw/). I'm not sure it will easily be extendable to this use case but feel free ask for any help with building a VS Code extension.
