Missing block quote? #80

Closed messiach closed 9 years ago

messiach commented 9 years ago

Block quoting with '>' seems not to work.

Example:

Markdown:

This is a quote from a previous reply or comment. Now this is my response to that quote.

Should be rendered as:

This is a quote from a previous reply or comment. Now this is my response to that quote.

MMMarkdown results are the same - the block quote isn't handled, it's simply reprinted as is.

With this input:

> This is a quote from a previous reply or comment.
Now this is my response to that quote.

I get this output:

<blockquote>
<p>This is a quote from a previous reply or comment.
Now this is my response to that quote.</p>
</blockquote>

This matches the behavior of GitHub.com and most other Markdown implementations. Are you getting different output? Or are you expecting different output?

Sorry this turned out to be an implementation detail - the text I have to convert has html entities (>). MMMarkdown will skip those unless I decode them first - but of course I can't set the attributedText property of my UITextView unless I convert again what's provided by MMMarkdown (which ends up looking incorrect - line breaks missing - and is slow).
