Re: [NTG-context] Module for Markdown: any volunteer to make a ConTeXt interface?

I recently finished a book project in multimarkdown, which I converted to LaTeX (I could not use ConTeXt because of its limited bibliographical functions in comparison to BibLatex). It worked fine. If I remember correctly, I preferred multimarkdown over markdown for more possibilities regarding tables. Robert

For what it's worth, the folks I work with would find it very valuable. Our team currently composes on drive and I have to kick things in various ways via pandoc to get it into our ConTeXt server (multi-user editing with floobits is ... kinda neat). Reducing complexity of that would be wonderful. I also use the md mechanism in journal publishing (https://github.com/sx-archipelagos/sxa https://github.com/sx-archipelagos/sxa) -- and would find it very useful there.

(The other route that would be very useful here is any paperpile integration, but that's rather outside the scope of this discussion).

Hi,

There's a really nice module for processing markdown: https://github.com/Witiko/markdown https://github.com/Witiko/markdown that has been presented during the TUG meeting and is included in TeX Live.

This is a fork of luamark (by the author of pandoc). Wouldn't it be better to provide an interface around that? Is it simply providing a tex interface around luamark or are there any changes in the parser as well.

Any idea how it compares with the markdown parser in m-markdown already included in ConTeXt?

that one was written when i tested some other lua thing that was very slow/inefficient .. irr some of the improved code was backported but as i never use markdown i didn't keep track of it (maybe some day i'll pick up that tread for mixed source coding or so)
