This has me so demoralized I've just been staring at the screen. But at least gi-docgen is built on Python-Markdown, which I hope is compliant so I hope I can use goldmark.

For context, I was foiled by . 😅

I forgot that had an HTML title attribute syntax. i.e. [link name](https://link.url "link title"). Djot has this too, but it's generalized in their {attribute=value} syntax. I was tempted to add the classic syntax to djot, but in hindsight it's not very useful.

So, bold new idea: What if "link title" syntax was used for alt text? Accessibility is important, right?

Well, I forgot that images already have it: ![alt text](https://image.url). 🤦‍♂️

I'm sure some of this is due to the "new shoes" problem, but I think incorporating the partials logic directly into is actually a performance improvement: joshbruce.com/essays-and-edito

I didn't run a profile before the change, but I did run the same set I used in 2022, and it at least didn't slow down: joshbruce.com/experiences/soft

Good times and I added partials to the fluent common mark library:

is cool but I think it is too restrictive and it needs a specific format.
IMHO, ( ) over http/https would be very efficient.
Markdown a really a common format for content and there many tools able to manage.
It's easy to put md files on an existing http server.
I've not found a really easy to use markdown extension for Firefox or Chromium. I don"t know if there are browsers that render mardown natively ??

3 introduced support for :

[[pandoc|https:/‌/github.com]]

There is no consensus across tools whether the link title should come before or after the pipe character, so pandoc supports both. Choose by enabling either of the new extensions
+wikilinks_title_after_pipe
or
+wikilinks_title_before_pipe

Works with , too: for GitHub wiki input, use gfm+wikilinks_title_after_pipe

allows to add to all elements when the `attributes` extension is enabled:

{.fruit}
- apple
- banana

doesn't support attributes on some elements (yet); this includes lists. The attributes are attached to a wrapping div in those cases, so the above is equivalent to this:

::: {.fruit}
- apple
- banana
:::

The extension is enabled by default in "commonmark_x".

Two ways to get a hard within a paragraph with :

1. End the line with two spaces (most portable).

I want a linebreak after this.␠␠
This is a new line.

2. “Backslash escape” the linebreak (more readable).

I want a linebreak after this.\
This is a new line.

Both methods work with and any processor.

Smart quotes in and work with multi-paragraph quotations, where only the last paragraph has a closing quotation mark. The style is used primarily in English prose.

"Enough work for today.

"Would you like some tea?"

supports many extensions for ; pandoc version 2.10.1 introduced the “commonmark_x” format, which is the standardized CommonMark plus a default set of useful extensions. This includes support for YAML blocks, fancy lists, syntax for divs and spans, and many other extensions that are part of pandoc's .

CommonMark_x is *almost* a drop-in replacement. Citations are the exception, they haven't been implemented yet.

and are often used interchangeably. The latter refers to the formal specification published in 2014, resolving the syntax ambiguities of the original Markdown spec.
CommonMark and “;s Markdown” differ in subtle ways, which is why pandoc has an extra CommonMark parser:

pandoc --from=commonmark
