shorthand syntax for headings
Last modified: 2011-03-29 19:26:56 UTC
After moving most long descriptions in gtk inline, it is becoming apparent that a shorthand syntax for section headings would be very nice for avoiding lots of xml in the sources. Markdown has something like ## some heading ## bla bla ### deeper heading ### bla bla Which would fit the bill, imo
Yes, this and simple lists would be nice to have. I am giving this a try now.
Matthias, I have added support for # some heading # and some heading ============ If needed I can add support for ## deeper heading ## ### even deeper heading ### and deeper heading -------------- even deeper heading ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ but I think one level should be enough for most docs. Please reopen if you need more. Will now try to do lists. commit 5d0ca8c60b20a907040d1e69f128c687ce9f3b8b Author: Stefan Kost <ensonic@users.sf.net> Date: Tue Mar 29 22:23:04 2011 +0300 mkdb: start simple markdown parser Turn ConvertBlankLines into a function that handles MarkDown. In addition to paragraph markers we now handle simple subsections. Fixes: #639145
