Add support for internal anchors #17

Open satyagraha opened 11 years ago

satyagraha commented 11 years ago

Markdown provides internal anchors for headings, e.g. on GitHub see https://gist.github.com/asabaylus/3071099 (and has finally fixed relative links so they work). Therefore, it would be very useful if this excellent Eclipse plugin provided equivalent functionality by generating such anchors.

You can see what GitHub does by looking at the generated page source for any .md file. I think there has been some debate about whether their implementation is exactly right (it uses the name rather than id attribute), but the principle seems pretty well-established though a bit difficult to track down in a "standard".

Hello,

Thank you for the suggestion.

You can set a different markdown->html converter. The option is Preferences -> Markdown: Command-line to run markdown.

I believe you can set pandoc to do what you want -- though I have not tested this.

It would be a good idea to integrate your idea into the plugin's normal behaviour. But I'm not sure when I'll have the time to do that.

Now there is GFMV #18

and the issue can be closed if README or Preference page has enough about how to use alternative markdown->html converter.

Currently it has frightening UNSTABLE in Preferences -> Markdown
(and no path selector)

That separate issue is something I was looking for. When the UI text says "take in a file", and the case is passing the current editor view's markdown file to pandoc, I would need to know a variable which represents the file path to give to pandoc input.

I see that there is a "location" property (variable) in Eclipse, in context of the current file view, and must assume that this is probably available in the context where the command line would run.

I can't tell, maybe @winterstein could, but he looks in seldom.
