No, markdown-extensions.txt
file should be not in ReText project
, it should be directly in %appdata%
. ReText uses the same path when it creates the file and when it reads it to get the extensions names.
It may be the problem that the changes do not immediately take effect: you may need to close the document and open it again. Can you please try that?
Yes, I did try that as well as closing ReText itself and relaunching. Still no go.
When I first tried figuring out the problem I looked at ReText.ini but didn't see markdown-extensions.txt.
What would you like me to try next?
Can you launch ReText using python.exe
instead of pythonw.exe
and check if it prints any errors to the console?
Also, can you paste an example of Markdown file where the TOC extension does not work, and the HTML you get (from Edit → View HTML code)?
No errors when launching with python.exe
, just a line showing the path to the config file.

It's quite strange. Can you please also:
Run pip install --upgrade Markdown Markups
to make sure you have the latest versions installed?
Add some debug print
calls to the _load_extensions_list_from_txt_file
function in markups/markdown.py to check what happens there?
print(extensions_file)
at the beginning of the function, before the with open…
line.print(self._split_extension_config(line.rstrip()))
before the yield…
line and at the same indentation level.And then launch retext using python.exe
and check what is printed?
If you have time you can also print extension_names
and extension_configs
here: https://github.com/retext-project/pymarkups/blob/master/markups/markdown.py#L199
If you can't do this debugging then no problem, I will try to test myself on a Windows machine but it won't be fast.
instead of
But ReText seems to ignore what's in %appdata%\markdown-extensions.txt. For example, if I put toc in "Markdown syntax extensions...", exit and relaunch ReText, go to Edit->Preferences, the toc is still there but putting [TOC] into an actual markdown file doesn't trigger the TOC to be rendered by the preview.
The workaround I'm using for now is to move markdown-extensions.txt into %appdata%\ReText project\.
I realize the above path is for non-Windows platforms, but I'm not sure what it needs to be changed to. I'm mentioning to merely point out that the Wiki probably needs to be changed.
