Pandoc conversion to word + markdown header

ewallace commented 3 years ago

To get comments from others, and to submit to The Biochemist, we will probably need to put in word format (yes, I know).

That will be helped by:

markdown header with key info including authors
using pandoc to convert to word directly from the markdown format

We did the same with the riboviz 2 manuscript, but using a pretty complex citation management and template system. Let's keep things much simpler here.

@FlicAnderson might you have time for the header / pandoc this week? My laptop with the pandoc installation is still down.

I've created branch doc-conversion-19, included a yaml header with author information (same order used as that in the README.md file) and used pandoc to generate a .docx word format.

Generating .docx from .md was done on my Ubuntu machine by running the following from the terminal (in the riboviz-work repo folder), with the pandoc software already installed: pandoc -s open-science-projects.md -o open-science-projects.docx

The new file open-science-projects.docx was generated :ok_hand:
