markdown2 v1.0.1.18 Release Notes

    • 👀 [Issue 57] Add html5 block tags (article, section, aside, et al; see "_html5tags" variable) to Markdown literal HTML block tag handling. Thanks Tim Gray!

    • [Issue 56] Fix setup.py install.

    • [Issue 54] Fix escaping of link title attributes. Thanks FND!

    • 👉 Tweak list matching to NOT make a ul for something like this:

      - - - - - hi there

    Before this change this would be a silly 5-deep nested li. See "not_quite_a_list" test case.

    • [Issue 52] Fix potential pathologically slow matching for <hr> markdown ("slow_hr" test case).

    • ➕ Add a Markdown.postprocess(text) -> text hook that is called near the end of markdown conversion. By default this does no transformation. It is called just before unescaping of special characters and unhashing of literal HTML blocks.

    • ["header-ids" and "toc" extras] Add "n" argument to Markdown.header_id_from_text hook. This allows a subclass using this hook to differentiate the header id based on the hN number (e.g. h1 diff that h2). Also allow a None return value to not add an id to that header (and exclude that header from the TOC).

    Note: If you used this hook, this is an incompatible change to the call signature.

    becomes:

        <div>

    Yo <strong>yo</strong>!

    </div>

    • ✅ [Issue 39] Test case fix for pygments 1.3.1 from thomas.moschny.

    • [Issue 42] Add "smarty-pants" extra for transforming plain ASCII punctuation characters into smart typographic punctuation HTML entities. Inspiration: http://daringfireball.net/projects/smartypants/ Implementation by Nikhil Chelliah. Also add \' and \" escape sequences for forcing dumb quotes when this extra is in use.

    • Guard against using True instead of None as follows markdown(..., extras={'header-ids': True}). None is wanted, but True is commonly (at least I did it twice) used.
