pandoc (0.46+2) unstable; urgency=low

   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * Debian packaging changes:
 
     + Remove bogus dependency on libghc6-uulib-dev.

 -- Recai Oktaş <roktas@debian.org>  Sat, 09 Feb 2008 18:40:00 +0200

pandoc (0.46+1) unstable; urgency=low

pandoc (0.46) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Made -H, -A, and -B options cumulative: if they are specified
     multiple times, multiple files will be included.
 
   * Added optional HTML sanitization using a whitelist.
     When this option is specified (--sanitize-html on the command line),
     unsafe HTML tags will be replaced by HTML comments, and unsafe HTML
     attributes will be removed.  This option should be especially useful
     for those who want to use pandoc libraries in web applications,
     where users will provide the input.
 
     + Main.hs:  Added --sanitize-html option.
 
     + Text.Pandoc.Shared:  Added stateSanitizeHTML to ParserState.
 
     + Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML:
       - Added whitelists of sanitaryTags and sanitaryAttributes.
       - Added parsers to check these lists (and state) to see if a given
         tag or attribute should be counted unsafe.
       - Modified anyHtmlTag and anyHtmlEndTag to replace unsafe tags
         with comments.
       - Modified htmlAttribute to remove unsafe attributes.
       - Modified htmlScript and htmlStyle to remove these elements if
         unsafe.
 
     + Modified README and man pages to document new option.
 
   * Improved handling of email addresses in markdown and
     reStructuredText. Consolidated uri and email address parsers.
     (Resolves Issue #37.)
 
     + New emailAddress and uri parsers in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
       - uri parser uses parseURI from Network.URI.
       - emailAddress parser properly handles email addresses with
         periods in them.
 
     + Removed uri and emailAddress parsers from Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST
       and Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown.
 
   * Markdown reader:
 
     + Fixed emph parser so that "*hi *there**" is parsed as a Strong
       nested in an Emph. (A '*' is only recognized as the end of the
       emphasis if it's not the beginning of a strong emphasis.)
 
     + Moved blockQuote parser before list parsers for performance.
 
     + Modified 'source' parser to allow backslash-escapes in URLs.
       So, for example, [my](/url\(1\)) yields a link to /url(1).
       Resolves Issue #34.
 
     + Disallowed links within links. (Resolves Issue #35.)
       - Replaced inlinesInBalanced with inlinesInBalancedBrackets, which
         instead of hard-coding the inline parser takes an inline parser
         as a parameter.
       - Modified reference and inlineNote to use
         inlinesInBalancedBrackets.
       - Removed unneeded inlineString function.
       - Added inlineNonLink parser, which is now used in the definition
         of reference.
       - Added inlineParsers list and redefined inline and inlineNonLink
         parsers in terms of it.
       - Added failIfLink parser.
 
     + Better handling of parentheses in URLs and quotation marks in
       titles.
       - 'source' parser first tries to parse URL with balanced
         parentheses; if that doesn't work, it tries to parse everything
         beginning with '(' and ending with ')'.
       - source parser now uses an auxiliary function source'.
       - linkTitle parser simplified and improved, under assumption that
         it will be called in context of source'.
 
     + Make 'block' conditional on strictness state, instead of using
       failIfStrict in block parsers. Use a different ordering of parsers
       in strict mode (raw HTML block before paragraph) for performance.
       In non-strict mode use rawHtmlBlocks instead of htmlBlock.
       Simplified htmlBlock, since we know it's only called in strict
       mode.
 
     + Improved handling of raw HTML.  (Resolves Issue #36.)
       - Tags that can be either block or inline (e.g. <ins>) should
         be treated as block when appropriate and as inline when
         appropriate. Thus, for example,
         <ins>hi</ins>
         should be treated as a paragraph with inline <ins> tags, while
         <ins>
         hi
         </ins>
         should be treated as a paragraph within <ins> tags.
       - Moved htmlBlock after para in list of block parsers.  This
         ensures that tags that can be either block or inline get parsed
         as inline when appropriate.
       - Modified rawHtmlInline' so that block elements aren't treated as
         inline.
       - Modified para parser so that paragraphs containing only HTML
         tags and blank space are not allowed.  Treat these as raw HTML
         blocks instead.
 
     + Fixed bug wherein HTML preceding a code block could cause it to
       be parsed as a paragraph.  The problem is that the HTML parser
       used to eat all blank space after an HTML block, including the
       indentation of the code block.  (Resolves Issue #39.)
       - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML, removed parsing of following space
         from rawHtmlBlock.
       - In Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown, modified rawHtmlBlocks so that
         indentation is eaten only on the first line after the HTML
         block.  This means that in
         <div>
              foo
         <div>
         the foo won't be treated as a code block, but in
         <div>
 
             foo
 
         </div>
         it will.  This seems the right approach for least surprise.
 
   * RST reader:
 
     + Fixed bug in parsing explicit links (resolves Issue #44).
       The problem was that we were looking for inlines until a '<'
       character signaled the start of the URL; so, if you hit a
       reference-style link, it would keep looking til the end of the
       document.  Fix:  change inline => (notFollowedBy (char '`') >>
       inline).  Note that this won't allow code inlines in links, but
       these aren't allowed in resT anyway.
 
     + Cleaned up parsing of reference names in key blocks and links.
       Allow nonquoted reference links to contain isolated '.', '-', '_',
       so that strings like 'a_b_' count as links.
 
     + Removed unnecessary check for following link in str.
       This is unnecessary now that link is above str in the definition of
       'inline'.
 
   * HTML reader:
 
     + Modified rawHtmlBlock so it parses </html> and </body> tags.
       This allows these tags to be handled correctly in Markdown.
       HTML reader now uses rawHtmlBlock', which excludes </html> and
       </body>, since these are handled in parseHtml.  (Resolves Issue
       #38.)
 
     + Fixed bug (emph parser was looking for <IT> tag, not <I>).
 
     + Don't interpret contents of style tags as markdown.
       (Resolves Issue #40.)
       - Added htmlStyle, analagous to htmlScript.
       - Use htmlStyle in htmlBlockElement and rawHtmlInline.
       - Moved "script" from the list of tags that can be either block or
         inline to the list of block tags.
 
     + Modified rawHtmlBlock to use anyHtmlBlockTag instead of anyHtmlTag
       and anyHtmlEndTag.  This fixes a bug in markdown parsing, where
       inline tags would be included in raw HTML blocks.
 
     + Modified anyHtmlBlockTag to test for (not inline) rather than
       directly for block.  This allows us to handle e.g. docbook in
       the markdown reader.
 
   * LaTeX reader:  Properly recognize --parse-raw in rawLaTeXInline.
     Updated LaTeX reader test to use --parse-raw.
 
   * HTML writer:
 
     + Modified rules for automatic HTML header identifiers to
       ensure that identifiers begin with an alphabetic character.
       The new rules are described in README.  (Resolves Issue #33.)
 
     + Changed handling of titles in HTML writer so you don't get
       "titleprefix - " followed by nothing.
 
   * ConTeXt writer: Use wrappers around Doc elements to ensure proper
     spacing.  Each block element is wrapped with either Pad or Reg.
     Pad'ed elements are guaranteed to have a blank line in between.
 
   * RST writer:
 
     + Refactored RST writer to use a record instead of a tuple for
       state, and to include options in state so it doesn't need to be
       passed as a parameter.
 
     + Use an interpreted text role to render math in restructuredText.
       See http://www.american.edu/econ/itex2mml/mathhack.rst for the
       strategy.
 
   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * Debian packaging changes:
 
     + Remove the empty 'include' directory in -dev package, which
       lintian complains about.
     + Bump Standarts-Version to 3.7.3.
     + Use new 'Homepage:' field to specify the upstream URL on
       suggestion of lintian.

pandoc (0.45) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Simplified parsing of reference keys and notes in markdown and RST
     readers: The Reference data structure from Text.Pandoc.Shared is no
     longer needed, since referenceKey and noteBlock parses return
     strings (as many blank lines as were occupied by the key or note)
     and update state themselves.  getPosition and setPosition are now
     used to ensure that error messages will give the correct line
     number. This yields cleaner (and slightly faster) code, with more
     accurate parsing error messages.
 
   * Added new Math inline element:
 
     + Markdown and LaTeX readers now convert TeX math into Math
       elements, not TeX.
     + This allows math to be treated differently from raw TeX in output.
       TeX elements are no longer printed in output formats other than
       Markdown, LaTeX, and ConTeXt.  But Math elements are always
       printed.
 
   * New default handling of math in writers:
 
     + New module Text.Pandoc.Readers.TeXMath exports readTeXMath, which
       parses raw TeX math and outputs a string of Pandoc inlines that
       tries to render it as far as possible using unicode characters,
       lapsing into literal TeX when needed.
     + readTeXMath is now used for default HTML output in HTML, S5, RTF,
       and Docbook, if no other method for displaying math in HTML is
       specified.  Enclosing $'s are no longer printed by default.
     + By default, math is put inside <span class="math">. This way it
       can be distinguished from the surrounding text, e.g. put in a
       different font.
 
   * New --gladtex and --mimetex options for display of math in HTML:
 
     + If --gladtex is specified, math is output between <eq> tags, so
       it can be processed by gladTeX.
     + If --mimetex is specified, math is put in <img> tags with a link
       to the mimetex CGI script (or any other script that takes TeX math
       as input and outputs an image).  The URL of the script may be
       specified, but defaults to /cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi.
     + HTMLMathMethod structure in WriterOptions keeps track of how to
       display math in HTML output.
     + Updated README with a description of the four options for
       displaying math in HTML.
 
   * HTML reader:
 
     + Fixed bug: parser for minimized attributes should not swallow
       trailing spaces.
     + Simplified HTML attribute parsing.
     + Changed parsing of code blocks in HTML reader:  <code> tag is no
       longer needed. <pre> suffices. All HTML tags in the code block
       (e.g. for syntax highlighting) are skipped, because they are not
       portable to other output formats. A <code>...</code> block not
       surrounded by <pre> now counts as inline HTML, not a code block.
     + Remove just one leading and one trailing newline from contents of
       <pre>...</pre> in codeBlock parser.
 
   * Markdown reader:
 
     + Removed support for box-style block quotes.
     + Require space before title in links and references.
       This fixes a bug in parsing URLs like http://silly/url(withparen).
     + Improved and simplified setextHeader parser.
     + Fixed logic in smart quote parsing, adding some needed 'try'
       statements.
     + Fixed smart quote parsing so that unicode characters 8216 and 8217
       are recognized as single quotes, and 8220 and 8221 as double
       quotes.
 
   * RST reader:
 
     + Fixed bug in parsing of code blocks. Previously a full tab indent
       was required, but RST allows code to be indented any amount.
       Resolves Issue #27.
     + Allow field lists to be indented.
     + Parse the contents of field lists instead of treating as a raw
       string.
     + Represent field lists as definition lists instead of blockquotes.
     + Fixed bug in which metadata would be overridden if the document
       contained multiple field lists.
     + Parse fields associated with '.. image::' blocks, and use 'alt'
       field, if given, for image alt and title attributes.
 
   * LaTeX reader:
 
     + Modified specialChar so that '"' characters are parsed.
     + Fixed a bug in parsing of \[ \] math blocks (thanks to Mark
       Kalderon).
 
   * HTML writer:
 
     + Changes in handling of math (see above).
     + Don't produce HTML for table of contents if there are
       no headers. (This would be an empty list, which is invalid XHTML.)
 
   * Markdown writer:
 
     + Don't print title attribute if title is empty. (This differs from
       the behavior of Markdown.pl, and agrees with PHP Markdown. But
       John Gruber has indicated that he prefers this behavior.) Adjusted
       test suite accordingly.
     + Fixed incorrect line wrapping in paragraphs including hard line
       breaks. Resolves Issue #25.
     + Fixed bug in markdown writer:  If an ordered list item began with
       a marker greater than 3 characters in width, and the item took
       more than one line, it would appear on the line after the list
       marker, e.g.:
 
           (12)
               My list item.
               Multiline.
 
       Now it works as follows:
 
           (12) My list item.
               Multiline.
 
   * RST writer
 
     + Fixed bug in RST writer's handling of ordered lists. Previously,
       list items with multiple lines would not always line up with
       single-line list items. Now, list items are nested the length of
       the list marker + 1. This looks better and ensures that list items
       all line up. (Note that list markers are padded to the length of
       the longest list marker in the series.)
     + Use 3-space indent for unordered lists.
     + If label for a link reference contains a colon, surround it by `
       signs so it won't be interpreted as the end of the link label.
 
   * LaTeX writer:
 
     + Cleaner output for footnotes. Footnotes now always begin on a new
       line, and the final } is on a line by itself only when it needs to
       be (i.e. only when the note ends with a Verbatim environment).
     + Added writer options to state, so state doesn't need to be passed
       as a parameter.
     + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
 
   * ConTeXt writer:  many improvements for more idiomatic ConTeXt output
     (thanks to Idris Samawi Hamid for suggestions).
 
     + PrettyPrint module now used for output.
     + Writer options are now in state, so they don't have to be passed
       as a parameter.
     + Text wrapping now provided, using wrapTeXIfNeeded.
     + Better treatment of footnotes:  footnotes are always on lines by
       themselves, and the final } is on a line by itself only when
       it needs to be (after \stoptyping).
     + Use \subject, \subsubject, ... or \section, \subsection, ... for
       headings, depending on whether --number-sections option is
       selected.
     + Extra blank line inserted after \stopitemize
     + Use new, "official" definition of blockquote environment. Also,
       use blank line after \startblockquote to balance blank line at the
       end.
     + Both itemized and enumerated lists are now generated using
       \start-stopitemize, with appropriate options. Removed definitions
       of ltxenum and ltxitem, which are no longer needed. Provided
       defaults for itemized lists in the preamble. State keeps track of
       ordered list level, so that when default numbering is specified,
       the appropriate scheme can be used.
     + Changed \useurl to \useURL.
     + Changed link color from red to blue.
     + Use \subsubsubsubsection etc., since these are supported
       (up to at least sub x 5).
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
 
     + Save and restore position in parseFromString, so that accurate
       error messages can be given.
     + Improved efficiency of romanNumeral parser.
     + Added wrappedTeX and wrapTeXIfNeeded functions.  These ensure
       that footnotes occur on lines by themselves (to make them
       easier to see and move) and do not screw up line wrapping.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.UTF8:  modified fromUTF8 to strip out the BOM
     if present.  Windows Notepad and other applications insert a
     BOM at the beginning of a UTF8 file.
 
   * Main.hs (tabFilter): Treat '\r' at end of line as newline (in
     addition to "\r\n" and '\n').
 
   * Added a writer option for wrapped text and a command-line option
     '--no-wrap', which disables text wrapping and minimizes whitespace
     in HTML. (Resolves Issue #26.)
 
     + Added support for '--no-wrap' to Main.hs.
     + Added wrapIfNeeded function to Text.Pandoc.Shared.
     + Use wrapIfNeeded instead of wrapped in the RST, Man, Docbook, and
       Markdown writers.
     + Added render and renderFragment helpers to HTML writer.
 
   * Modified html2markdown to run tidy only if the HTML cannot be
     parsed. Previously html2markdown piped all input through tidy
     before passing it to pandoc. This caused problems on certain pages
     (e.g. http://daringfireball.com/markdown) which have well-formed
     XHTML that causes tidy to choke. The solution is to pipe through
     tidy only if pandoc cannot parse the input by itself. This means
     that a temp file is now always used, even when input comes from a
     local file or standard input.
 
   * Removed 'version' constant from Main.hs; added 'pandocVersion' to
     Text.Pandoc library.
 
   * pandoc.cabal:
 
     + Modified to work with GHC 6.8 and Cabal configurations. (For GHC
       6.8, pretty and containers must be added to Build-Depends, and it
       is desirable to use the -O2 compiler option.)  Cabal
       configurations allows one to select options depending on the
       compiler version For GHC 6.6, the splitBase option can be
       disabled.
     + pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is provided for users with older versions of
       Cabal, which do not support configurations.
     + Use Ghc-Prof-Options to ensure that '-auto-all' is used when
       '--enable-(executable|library)-profiling' is specified. Updated
       PROFILING instructions accordingly.
 
   * Makefile:
 
     + Makefile now checks GHC version. If GHC is 6.6, pandoc.cabal.ghc66
       is copied to pandoc.cabal, and the old pandoc.cabal is copied
       to pandoc.cabal.orig. Otherwise, pandoc.cabal is copied to
       pandoc.cabal.orig but otherwise unmodified. This way, the Makefile
       will work properly with either GHC 6.6 or 6.8.
     + Changed BUILDCONF to point to dist/setup-config, not
       .setup-config.  This is where current versions of Cabal put it.
     + Added $(BUILDCMD) target, so setup doesn't get compiled every
       time.
     + Removed dependency of templates on ./templates, which is circular
       now that templates is a subdirectory of the top-level.
 
   * MacPorts Portfile:
 
     + Modified to install the pandoc library in addition to programs.
     + Installation must be done manually rather than using Makefile's
       install-all.
     + Note that the library must be registered in the activate phase,
       after the library files have been copied out of the destroot.
       Cabal generates a 'register.sh' script that will do this.
 
   * debian/control: Added libghc6-network-dev, libghc6-xhtml-dev, and
     libghc6-mtl-dev as dependencies for libghc6-pandoc-dev.
     Closes: #445235
 
   * debian/rules:  Converted to UTF-8.
 
   * Changed pandoc home page to http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/.
 
   * Updated ASCIIMathML.js to latest version.
 
   * Directory structure:
 
     + Moved everything from src into the top-level directory.
     + Changed references to source directory in Makefile and
       pandoc.cabal.*.
     + Moved ASCIIMathML.js, headers, and ui into templates directory.
     + Modified fillTemplates.pl to reflect new paths.
 
   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * Makefile: Fixed the issue of having two copies of the library
     documentation under some usage scenarios.
 
   * Replaced 'ghc' with '$(GHC)' in Makefile, and made GHC
     and GHC_PKG configurable through the environment, to support
     unusual ghc installations.  For example:
     GHC=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc GHC_PKG=/opt/ghc/bin/ghc-pkg make

pandoc (0.44) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Fixed bug in HTML writer:  when --toc was used, anchors were put
     around headers, which is invalid XHTML (block content within inline
     element).  Now the anchors are put inside the header tags.  Resolves
     Issue #23.
 
   * Added xmlns attribute to html element in html writer tests.
     This attribute is added by more recent versions of the
     xhtml library (>= 3000), and is required for valid XHTML.
 
   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * On configure, compile 'Setup.hs' to 'setup' and use 'setup' as the
     build command instead of 'runhaskell', which, on some platforms
     (such as s390, alpha, m68k), throws the following error:
 
         runhaskell Setup.hs configure --prefix=/usr
         ghc-6.6.1: not built for interactive use
 
     This causes a serious FTBFS bug.  Closes: #440668.

pandoc (0.43) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * The focus of this release is performance.  The markdown parser
     is about five times faster than in 0.42, based on benchmarks
     with the TextMate manual.
 
   * Main.hs: Replaced CRFilter and tabFilter with single function
     tabFilter, which operates on the whole string rather than breaking
     it into lines, and handles dos-style line-endings as well as tabs.
 
   * Added separate LaTeX reader and native reader tests; removed
     round-trip tests.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
 
     + Removed tabsToSpaces and tabsInLine (they were used only in
       Main.hs.)
     + General code cleanup (to elimante warnings when compiling with
       -Wall.)
     + Added 'wrapped' function, which helps wrap text into paragraphs,
       using the prettyprinting library.
     + Rewrote charsInBalanced and charsInBalanced'.
         - Documented restriction: open and close must be distinct
           characters.
         - Rearranged options for greater efficiency.
         - Bug fix: Changed inner call to charsInBalanced inside
           charsInBalanced' to charsInBalanced'.
     + anyLine now requires that the line end with a newline (not eof).
       This is a harmless assumption, since we always add newlines to the
       end of a block before parsing with anyLine, and it yields a 10%
       speed boost.
     + Removed unnecessary 'try' in anyLine.
     + Removed unneeded 'try' from romanNumeral parser.
     + Use notFollowedBy instead of notFollowedBy' in charsInBalanced.
     + Removed unneeded 'try' in parseFromString.
     + Removed unneeded 'try' from stringAnyCase.  (Now it behaves
       like 'string'.)
     + Changed definition of 'enclosed' in Text.Pandoc.Shared so that
       'try' is not automatically applied to the 'end' parser. Added
       'try' in calls to 'enclosed' where needed. Slight speed increase.
 
   * Writers:
 
     + Replaced individual wrapping routines in RST, Man, and Markdown
       writers with 'wrapped' from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
     + Rewrote LaTeX writer to use the prettyprinting library,
       so we get word wrapping, etc.
     + Modified latex writer tests for new latex writer using
       prettyprinter.
     + Fixed bug in LaTeX writer: autolinks would not cause
       '\usepackage{url}' to be put in the document header. Also, changes
       to state in enumerated list items would be overwritten.
     + In Markdown writer, escape paragraphs that begin with ordered list
       markers, so they don't get interpreted as ordered lists.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Reades.LaTeX:
 
     + Fixed bug in LaTeX reader, which wrongly assumed that the roman
       numeral after "enum" in "setcounter" would consist entirely of
       "i"s. 'enumiv' is legitimate.
     + LaTeX command and environment names can't contain numbers.
     + Rearranged order of parsers in inline for slight speed
       improvement.
     + Added '`' to special characters and 'unescapedChar'.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Readers.RST:
 
     + Removed unneeded try's in RST reader; also minor code cleanup.
     + Removed tabchar.
     + Rearranged parsers in inline (doubled speed).
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Readers.Markdown:
 
     + Skip notes parsing if running in strict mode. (This yields a nice
       speed improvement in strict mode.)
     + Simplify autolink parsing code, using Network.URI to test for
       URIs. Added dependency on network library to debian/control and
       pandoc.cabal.
     + More perspicuous definition of nonindentSpaces.
     + Removed unneeded 'try' in 'rawLine'.
     + Combined linebreak and whitespace into a new whitespace parser,
       to avoid unnecessary reparsing of space characters.
     + Removed unnecessary 'try' in 'codeBlock', 'ellipses',
       'noteMarker', 'multilineRow', 'dashedLine', 'rawHtmlBlocks'.
     + Use lookAhead in parsers for setext headers and definition lists
       to see if the next line begins appropriately; if not, don't waste
       any more time parsing.
     + Don't require blank lines after code block. (It's sufficient to
       end code block with a nonindented line.)
     + Changed definition of 'emph': italics with '_' must not
       be followed by an alphanumeric character. This is to help
       prevent interpretation of e.g. [LC_TYPE]: my_type as
       '[LC<em>TYPE]:my</em>type'.
     + Improved Markdown.pl-compatibility in referenceLink: the two parts
       of a reference-style link may be separated by one space, but not
       more... [a] [link], [not]    [a link].
     + Fixed markdown inline code parsing so it better accords with
       Markdown.pl: the marker for the end of the code section is a clump
       of the same number of `'s with which the section began, followed
       by a non-` character. So, for example,
          ` h ``` i ` -> <code>h ``` i</code>.
     + Split 'title' into 'linkTitle' and 'referenceTitle', since the
       rules are slightly different.
     + Rewrote 'para' for greater efficiency.
     + Rewrote link parsers for greater efficiency.
     + Removed redundant 'referenceLink' in definition of inline (it's
       already in 'link').
     + Refactored escapeChar so it doesn't need 'try'.
     + Refactored hrule for performance in Markdown reader.
     + More intelligent rearranging of 'inline' so that most frequently
       used parsers are tried first.
     + Removed tabchar parser, as whitespace handles tabs anyway.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences:
 
     + Refactored.
     + Removed unnecessary 'try's for a speed improvement.
     + Removed unnecessary '&' and ';' from the entity table.
 
   * Build process:
 
     + Makefile: Get VERSION from cabal file, not Main.hs.
     + Modified MacPorts Portfile:
         - Depend on haddock
         - Build and install libraries and library documentation in
           addition to pandoc executable
         - Added template item for md5 sum in Portfile.in.
         - Incorporated changes from MacPorts repository (r28278).
     + FreeBSD port:  Don't try to generate distinfo in Makefile.
       It can be made using 'make makesum' in FreeBSD.
     + Make both freebsd and macports targets depend on tarball.
 
   * Website and documentation:
 
     + Updated INSTALL instructions.
     + Added pandocwiki demo to website.
     + Removed local references to Portfile, since pandoc is now in the
       MacPorts repository.

pandoc (0.42) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Main.hs: Use utf8 conversion on the extra files loaded with
     the -H, -C, -B, and -A options.  This fixes problems with unicode
     characters in these files.
 
   * Exposed Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML, since it is imported in
     Text.Pandoc.Readers.HTML and without it we get a linking error when
     using the library.
 
   * Markdown reader:
 
     + Added new rule for enhanced markdown ordered lists: if the list
       marker is a capital letter followed by a period (including a
       single-letter capital roman numeral), then it must be followed by
       at least two spaces. The point of this is to avoid accidentally
       treating people's initials as list markers: a paragraph might
       begin, "B. Russell was an English philosopher," and this shouldn't
       be treated as a list.  Documented change in README.
     + Blocks that start with "p. " and a digit are no longer treated
       as ordered lists (it's a page number).
     + Added a needed 'try' to listItem.
     + Removed check for a following setext header in endline.
       A full test is too inefficient (doubles benchmark time), and the
       substitute we had before is not 100% accurate.
     + Don't use Code elements for autolinks if --strict specified.
 
   * LaTeX writer:  When a footnote ends with a Verbatim environment, the
     close } of the footnote cannot occur on the same line or an error
     occurs.  Fixed this by adding a newline before the closing } of
     every footnote.
 
   * HTML writer:
     + Removed incorrect "{}" around style information in HTML tables.
       Column widths now work properly in HTML.
     + If --strict option is specified (and --toc is not), don't include
       identifiers in headers, for better Markdown compatibility.
 
   * Build process:
 
     + Separated $(web_dest) and website targets.
     + In website, index.txt is now constructed from template
       index.txt.in.
     + Added freebsd target to Markefile. This creates the freebsd
       Makefile from Makefile.in, and creates distinfo.  Removed Makefile
       and distinfo from the repository.
     + Added macport target to Makefile. Portfile is built from template
       Portfile.in.
     + Removed OSX package targets.  (Too many difficulties involving
       dependencies on dynamic libraries.)
     + More complete INSTALL instructions for all architectures.
 
   * Website:
     + Added a programming demo, pandocwiki.

   * Do not forget to close pandoc's ITP.  Closes: #391666

pandoc (0.41) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Fixed bugs in HTML reader:
     + Skip material at end only if </html> is present (previously,
       only part of the document would be parsed if an error was
       found; now a proper error message is given).
     + Added new constant eitherBlockOrInline with elements that may
       count either as block-level or as inline. Modified isInline and
       isBlock to take this into account.
     + Modified rawHtmlBlock to accept any tag (even an inline tag):
       this is innocuous, because rawHtmlBlock is tried only if a regular
       inline element can't be parsed.
     + Added a necessary 'try' in definition of 'para'.
 
   * Fixed bug in markdown ordered list parsing.  The problem was that
     anyOrderedListStart did not check for a space following the
     ordered list marker.  So in 'A.B. 2007' the parser would be
     expecting a list item, but would not find one, causing an error.
     Fixed a similar bug in the RST reader.  Resolves Issue #22.
 
   * Refactored RST and Markdown readers using parseFromString.
 
   * LaTeX reader will now skip anything after \end{document}.
 
   * Fixed blockquote output in markdown writer: previously, block
     quotes in indented contexts would be indented only in the first
     line.
 
   * Added note to INSTALL about variations in versions of the xhtml
     library that can lead to failed tests (thanks to Leif LeBaron).

pandoc (0.4) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Added two new output formats: groff man pages and ConTeXt. By
     default, output files with extensions ".ctx" and ".context" are
     assumed to be ConTeXt, and output files with single-digit extensions
     are assumed to be man pages.
 
   * Enhanced ordered lists (documented in README, under Lists):
     + The OrderedList block element now stores information about
       list number style, list number delimiter, and starting number.
     + The readers parse this information when possible.
     + The writers use this information to style ordered lists.
     + The enhancement can be disabled using the --strict option.
 
   * Added support for tables (with a new Table block element). Two kinds
     of tables are supported: a simple table with one-line rows, and a
     more complex variety with multiline rows. All output formats are
     supported, but only markdown tables are parsed at the moment. The
     syntax is documented in README.
 
   * Added support for definition lists (with a new DefinitionList block
     element). All output and input formats are supported. The syntax is
     documented in README.
 
   * Added support for superscripts and subscripts (with new Superscript
     and Subscript inline elements).  All input and output
     formats.  The syntax is documented in README.
 
   * Added support for strikeout (with a new Strikeout inline element).
     All input and output formats are supported. Thanks to Bradley Kuhn,
     who contributed a patch. The syntax is documented in README.
     Resolves Issue #18.
 
   * Added a --toc|--table-of-contents option.  This causes an
     automatically generated table of contents (or an instruction that
     creates one) to be inserted at the beginning of the document. Not
     supported in S5, DocBook, or man page writers.
 
   * Modified the -m|--asciimathml option:
 
     + If an optional URL argument is provided, a link is inserted
       instead of the contents of the ASCIIMathML.js script.
     + Nothing is inserted unless the document actually contains
       LaTeX math.
 
   * Removed Blank block element as unnecessary.
 
   * Removed Key and Note blocks from the Pandoc data structure. All
     links are now stored as explicit links, and note contents are
     stored with the (inline) notes.
 
     + All link Targets are now explicit (URL, title) pairs; there
       is no longer a 'Ref' target.
     + Markdown and RST parsers now need to extract data from key and
       note blocks and insert them into the relevant inline elements.
       Other parsers have been simplified, since there is no longer any
       need to construct separate key and note blocks.
     + Markdown, RST, and HTML writers need to construct lists of
       notes; Markdown and RST writers need to construct lists of link
       references (when the --reference-links option is specified); and
       the RST writer needs to construct a list of image substitution
       references. All writers have been rewritten to use the State monad
       when state is required.
     + Several functions (generateReference, keyTable,
       replaceReferenceLinks, replaceRefLinksBlockList, and some
       auxiliaries used by them) have been removed from
       Text.Pandoc.Shared, since they are no longer needed. New functions
       and data structures (Reference, isNoteBlock, isKeyBlock,
       isLineClump) have been added. The functions inTags,
       selfClosingTag, inTagsSimple, and inTagsIndented have been moved
       to the DocBook writer, since that is now the only module that uses
       them. NoteTable is now exported in Text.Pandoc.Shared.
     + Added stateKeys and stateNotes to ParserState; removed
       stateKeyBlocks, stateKeysUsed, stateNoteBlocks,
       stateNoteIdentifiers, stateInlineLinks.
     + Added writerNotes and writerReferenceLinks to WriterOptions.
 
   * Added Text.Pandoc module that exports basic readers, writers,
     definitions, and utility functions. This should export everything
     needed for most uses of Pandoc libraries. The haddock documentation
     includes a short example program.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.ASCIIMathML is no longer an exported module.
 
   * Added Text.Pandoc.Blocks module to help in printing markdown
     and RST tables.  This module provides functions for working with
     fixed-width blocks of text--e.g., placing them side by side, as
     in a table row.
 
   * Refactored to avoid reliance on Haskell's Text.Regex library, which
     (a) is slow, and (b) does not properly handle unicode.  This fixed
     some strange bugs, e.g. in parsing S-cedilla, and improved
     performance.
 
     + Replaced 'gsub' with a general list function  'substitute'
       that does not rely on Text.Regex.
     + Rewrote extractTagType in HTML reader so that it doesn't use
       regexs.
     + In Markdown reader, replaced email regex test with a custom email
       autolink parser (autoLinkEmail). Also replaced selfClosingTag
       regex with a custom function isSelfClosingTag.
     + Modified Docbook writer so that it doesn't rely on Text.Regex for
       detecting 'mailto' links.
     + Removed escapePreservingRegex and reamped entity-handling
       functions in Text.Pandoc.Shared and
       Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences to avoid reliance on Text.Regex
       (see below on character reference handling changes).
 
   * Renamed Text.Pandoc.Entities as Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.
 
   * Changed handling of XML entities.  Entities are now parsed (and
     unicode characters returned) in the Markdown and HTML readers,
     rather than being handled in the writers.  In HTML and Docbook
     writers, UTF-8 is now used instead of entities for characters above
     128.  This makes the HTML and DocBook output much more readable and
     more easily editable.
 
     + Removed sgmlHexEntity, sgmlDecimalEntity, sgmlNamedEntity, and
       sgmlCharacterEntity regexes from Text.Pandoc.Shared.
     + Renamed escapeSGMLChar to escapeCharForXML.  Added
       escapeStringForXML.  Moved both functions to
       Text.Pandoc.Writers.Docbook.
     + Added characterReference parser to
       Text.Pandoc.CharacterReferences.  This parses a string and return
       a unicode character.
     + Rewrote decodeCharacterReferences to use the new parser instead of
       Text.Regex.
     + Added new charRef parser for Markdown and HTML, which replaces the
       old 'entity' parser. Added '&' as a special character in Markdown
       reader.
     + Modified HTML and Markdown readers to call decodeEntities on all
       raw strings (e.g. authors, dates, link titles), to ensure that no
       unprocessed entities are included in the native representation of
       the document.  (In the HTML reader, most of this work is done by a
       change in extractAttributeName.)
     + In XML and Markdown output, escape unicode nonbreaking space as
       '&nbsp;', since a unicode non-breaking space is impossible to
       distinguish visually from a regular space.  (Resolves Issue #3.)
     + Removed encodeEntitiesNumerical.
     + Use Data.Map for entityTable and (new) reverseEntityTable, for a
       slight performance boost over the old association list.
     + Removed unneeded decodeEntities from 'str' parser in HTML and
       Markdown readers.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.UTF8:  Renamed encodeUTF8 to toUTF8, decodeUTF8 to
     fromUTF8, for clarity.
 
   * Replaced old haskell98 module names replaced by hierarchical module
     names, e.g. List by Data.List.  Removed haskell98 from dependencies
     in pandoc.cabal, and added mtl (needed for state monad). Substituted
     xhtml for html.
 
   * Refactored and cleaned up character escaping in writers, using
     backslashEscapes and escapeStringUsing functions.
 
   * Instead of adding "\n\n" to the end of an input string in Main.hs,
     this is now done in the readers. This makes the libraries behave
     the way you'd expect from the pandoc program. Resolves Issue #10.
 
   * URLs and email addresses in autolinks are now typeset as Code.
 
   * In Main.hs, changed putStr to putStrLn -- mainly because MacOS X
     doesn't display the whole output unless there's a line ending.
 
   * Major code cleanup in all modules, for greater consistency,
     concision,
     and readability.
 
   * HTML reader:
 
     + Fixed several bugs (extractTagType, attribute parsing).
     + Remove Null blocks in lists of blocks when possible.
     + Allow HTML comments as raw HTML inline.
 
   * Markdown reader:
 
     + Ordered list items may no longer begin with uppercase letters, or
       letters greater than 'n'.  (This prevents first initials and page
       reference, e.g. 'p. 400', from being parsed as beginning lists.)
       Also, numbers beginning list items may no longer end with ')',
       which is now allowed only after letters.  Note: These changes
       may cause documents to be parsed differently. Users should take
       care in upgrading.
     + Changed autoLink parsing to conform better to Markdown.pl's
       behavior. <google.com> is not treated as a link, but
       <http://google.com>;, <ftp://google.com>;, and
       <mailto:google@google.com> are.
     + Cleaned up handling of embedded quotes in link titles.  Now these
       are stored as a '"' character, not as '&quot;'.
     + Use lookAhead parser for the 'first pass' (looking for reference
       keys), instead of parsing normally, then using setInput to reset
       input.  This yields a slight performance boost.
     + Fixed several bugs in smart quote recognition.
     + Fixed bug in indentSpaces (which didn't properly handle
       cases with mixed spaces and tabs).
     + Consolidated 'text', 'special', and 'inline' into 'inline'.
     + Fixed bug which allowed URL and title to be separated by multiple
       blank lines in links and reference keys.  They can be on separate
       lines but can't have blank lines between them.
     + Correctly handle bracketed text inside inline footnotes and
       links,using new function inlinesInBalanced.  Resolves Issue #14.
     + Fixed bug in footnotes: links in footnotes were not being
       processed. Solution: three-stage parse. First, get all the
       reference keys and add information to state. Next, get all the
       notes and add information to state. (Reference keys may be needed
       at this stage.) Finally, parse everything else.
     + Replaced named constants like 'emphStart' with literals.
     + Removed an extra occurance of escapedChar in definition of inline.
 
   * RST reader:
 
     + Allow the URI in a RST hyperlink target to start on the line
       after the reference key.
     + Added 'try' in front of 'string', where needed, or used a
       different parser.  This fixes a bug where ````` would not be
       correctly parsed as a verbatim `.
     + Fixed slow performance in parsing inline literals in RST reader.
       The problem was that ``#`` was seen by 'inline' as a potential
       link or image.  Fix:  inserted 'notFollowedBy (char '`')' in link
       parsers.  Resolves Issue #8.
     + Use lookAhead instead of getInput/setInput in RST reader.  Removed
       unneeded getState call, since lookAhead automatically saves and
       restores the parser state.
     + Allow hyperlink target URIs to be split over multiple lines, and
       to start on the line after the reference. Resolves Issue #7.
     + Fixed handling of autolinks.
 
   * LaTeX reader:
 
     + Replaced 'choice [(try (string ...), ...]' idiom with
       'oneOfStrings', for clarity.
     + Added clauses for tilde and caret. Tilde is \ensuremath{\sim}, and
       caret is \^{}, not \^ as before.
     + Added parsing for \url.
     + Parse \texttt{} as code, provided there's nothing fancy inside.
 
   * HTML writer:
 
     + Modified HTML writer to use the Text.XHtml library. This results
       in cleaner, faster code, and it makes it easier to use Pandoc in
       other projects, like wikis, which use Text.XHtml. Two functions
       are now provided, writeHtml and writeHtmlString: the former
       outputs an Html structure, the latter a rendered string. The S5
       writer is also changed, in parallel ways (writeS5, writeS5String).
     + The Html header is now written programmatically, so it has been
       removed from the 'headers' directory. The S5 header is still
       needed, but the doctype and some of the meta declarations have
       been removed, since they are written programatically. This change
       introduces a new dependency on the xhtml package.
     + Fixed two bugs in email obfuscation involving improper escaping
       of '&' in the <noscript> section and in --strict mode. Resolves
       Issue #9.
     + Fixed another bug in email obfuscation: If the text to be
       obfuscated contains an entity, this needs to be decoded before
       obfuscation.
       Thanks to thsutton for the patch. Resolves Issue #15.
     + Changed the way the backlink is displayed in HTML footnotes.
       Instead of appearing on a line by itself, it now generally
       appears on the last line of the note.  (Exception:  when the
       note does not end with a Plain or Para block.) This saves space
       and looks better.
     + Added automatic unique identifiers to headers:
       - The identifier is derived from the header via a scheme
         documented in README.
       - WriterState now includes a list of header identifiers and a
         table of contents in addition to notes.
       - The function uniqueIdentifiers creates a list of unique
         identifiers from a list of inline lists (e.g. headers).
       - This list is part of WriterState and gets consumed by
         blockToHtml
         each time a header is encountered.
     + Include CSS for .strikethrough class in header only if
       strikethrough text appears in the document.
     + If the 'strict' option is specified, elements that do not appear
       in standard markdown (like definition lists) are passed through as
       raw HTML.
     + Simplified treatment of autolinks, using pattern matching instead
       of conditionals.
 
   * Markdown writer:
 
     + Links in markdown output are now printed as inline links by
       default, rather than reference links.  A --reference-links option
       has been added that forces links to be printed as reference links.
       Resolves Issue #4.
     + Use autolinks when possible.  Instead of [site.com](site.com),
       use <site.com>.
 
   * LaTeX writer:
 
     + Rewrote to use the State monad. The preamble now includes only
       those packages that are actually required, given the document's
       content.  Thus, for example, if strikeout is not used, ulem is not
       required.  Modified LaTeXHeader accordingly.
     + Modified LaTeX writer to insert '\,' between consecutive quotes.
     + Removed unused function tableRowColumnWidths.
     + Simplified code for escaping special characters.
     + Leave extra blank line after \maketitle.
     + Include empty '\author{}' when no author specified to avoid LaTeX
       errors.
     + Include fancyvrb code in header only if needed -- that is, only
       if there is actually code in a footnote.
     + Use \url{} for autolinks.
     + Include [mathletters] option in ucs package, so that basic unicode
       Greek letters will work correctly.
 
   * RST writer:  Force blank line before lists, so that sublists will
     be handled correctly.
 
   * Docbook writer:  Fixed a bug:  email links with text, like
     [foo](me@bar.baz), were being incorrectly treated as autolinks.
 
   * Removed Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc and moved all its functions to
     Text.Pandoc.Shared.
 
   * Text.Pandoc.Shared:
 
     + Added defaultWriterOptions.
     + Added writerTableOfContents to WriterOptions.
     + Added writerIgnoreNotes option to WriterOptions.  This is needed
       for processing header blocks for a table of contents, since notes
       on headers should not appear in the TOC.
     + Added prettyprinting for native Table format.
     + Removed some unneeded imports.
     + Moved escape and nullBlock parsers from
       Text.ParserCombinators.Pandoc, since the latter is for
       general-purpose parsers that don't depend on
       Text.Pandoc.Definition.
     + Moved isHeaderBlock from Text.Pandoc.Writers.HTML.
     + Moved Element, headerAtLeast, and hierarchicalize from Docbook
       writer, because HTML writer now uses these in constructing a table
       of contents.
     + Added clauses for new inline elements (Strikeout, Superscript,
       Subscript) to refsMatch.
     + Removed backslashEscape; added new functions escapeStringUsing and
       backslashEscapes.
     + Moved failIfStrict from markdown reader, since it is now used also
       by the HTML reader.
     + Added a 'try' to the definition of indentSpaces.
     + In definition of 'reference', added check to make sure it's not a
       note reference.
     + Added functions: camelCaseToHyphenated, toRomanNumeral,
       anyOrderedListMarker, orderedListmarker, orderedListMarkers,
       charsInBalanced', withHorizDisplacement, romanNumeral
     + Fixed a bug in the anyLine parser. Previously it would parse an
       empty string "", but it should fail on an empty string, or we get
       an error when it is used inside "many" combinators.
     + Removed followedBy' parser, replacing it with the lookAhead parser
       from Parsec.
     + Added some needed 'try's before multicharacter parsers, especially
       in 'option' contexts.
     + Removed the 'try' from the 'end' parser in 'enclosed', so that
       'enclosed' behaves like 'option', 'manyTill', etc.
     + Added lineClump parser, which parses a raw line block up to and
       including any following blank lines.
     + Renamed parseFromStr to parseFromString.
     + Added a 'try' to the 'end' parser in 'enclosed'.  This makes
       errors in the use of 'enclosed' less likely. Removed some now-
       unnecessary 'try's in calling code.
     + Removed unneeded 'try' in blanklines.
     + Removed endsWith function and rewrote calling functions to use
       isSuffixOf instead.
     + Added >>~ combinator.
     + Fixed bug in normalizeSpaces:  Space:Str "":Space should compress
       to Space.
 
   * Refactored runtests.pl; added separate tests for tables.
 
   * Shell scripts:
 
     + Added -asxhtml flag to tidy in html2markdown. This will
       perhaps help the parser, which expects closing tags.
     + Modified markdown2pdf to run pdflatex a second time if --toc or
       --table-of-contents was specified; otherwise the table of
       contents won't appear.
     + Modified markdown2pdf to print a helpful message if the 'ulem'
       LaTeX package is required and not found.
 
   * Changes to build process:
 
     + Dropped support for compilation with GHC 6.4.  GHC 6.6 or higher
       is now required.
     + Removed cabalize and Pandoc.cabal.in. The repository now contains
       pandoc.cabal itself.
     + Pandoc.cabal has been changed to pandoc.cabal, because HackageDB
       likes the cabal file to have the same name as the tarball.
     + Expanded and revised the package description in pandoc.cabal.
       Revised the package synopsis.
     + The tarball built by 'make tarball' now contains files built from
       templates (including man pages and shell scripts), so pandoc can
       be built directly using Cabal tools, without preprocessing.
     + Executable binaries are now stripped before installing.
     + Man pages are now generated from markdown sources, using pandoc's
       man page writer.
     + Use HTML version of README (instead of RTF) in Mac OS X installer.
     + Instead of testing for the existence of a pandoc symlink in
       build-exec, use ln -f.
 
   * Documentation:
 
     + Updated README and man pages with information on new features.
     + Updated INSTALL instructions with some useful clarifications and
       links.
     + Updated web content.
 
   * Added FreeBSD port.
 
   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * debian/control:
 
     + Changed pandoc's Build-Depends to include libghc6-mtl-dev and
       libghc6-xhtml-dev.  Removed libghc6-html-dev.
     + Suggest texlive-latex-recommended | tetex-extra instead of
       tetex-bin.  This brings in fancyvrb and unicode support.

pandoc (0.3) unstable; urgency=low

   [ John MacFarlane ]
 
   * Changes in pandoc options:
 
     + Allow options to follow or precede arguments.
     + Changed '--smartypants' to '--smart' and adjusted symbols
       accordingly.
     + Added '--strict' option.
     + Added '-o/--output' option.
     + Added '--dump-args' and '--ignore-args' options (for use in
       wrappers).
     + Modified '-v' and '-h' output to go to STDERR, not STDOUT, and
       return
       error conditions.  This is helpful for writing wrappers.
     + Added copyright message to '-v' output, modeled after FSF
       messages.
     + Reformatted usage message so that it doesn't wrap illegibly.
     + Removed extra blanks after '-h' and '-D' output.
 
   * Added docbook writer.
 
   * Added implicit setting of default input and output format based
     on input and output filename extensions.  These defaults are
     overridden if explicit input and output formats are specified using
     '-t', '-f', '-r', or '-w' options.  Documented in pandoc(1) man page
     and README.
 
   * Allow ordered list items to begin with (single) letters, as well
     as numbers.  The list item marker may now be terminated either by
     '.' or by ')'.  This extension to standard markdown is documented
     in README.
 
   * Revised footnote syntax.  (See README for full details.)  The
     '[^1]' format now standard in markdown extensions is supported,
     as are inline footnotes with this syntax: '^[My note.]'.
     The earlier footnote syntax '^(1)' is no longer supported.
 
   * Improved HTML representation of footnotes.  All footnotes
     are now auto-numbered and appear in an ordered list at the
     end of the HTML document.  Since the default appearance is now
     acceptable, the old footnote styles have been removed from the
     HTML header.
 
   * Bug fixes:
 
     + Fixed a serious bug in the markdown, LaTeX, and RST readers.
       These readers ran 'runParser' on processed chunks of text to
       handle embedded block lists in lists and quotation blocks.  But
       then any changes made to the parser state in these chunks was
       lost, as the state is local to the parser.  So, for example,
       footnotes didn't work in quotes or list items.  The fix:  instead
       of calling runParser on some raw text, use setInput to make it the
       input, then parse it, then use setInput to restore the input to
       what it was before.  This is shorter and more elegant, and it
       fixes the problem.
     + Fixed bug in notFollowedBy' combinator (adding 'try' before
       'parser').  Adjusted code that uses this combinator accordingly.
     + Fixed bug in RTF writer that caused improper indentation on
       footnotes occurring in indented blocks like lists.
     + Fixed parsing of metadata in LaTeX reader.  Now the title, author,
       and date are parsed correctly.  Everything else in the preamble
       is skipped.
     + Modified escapedChar in LaTeX reader to allow a '\' at the end of
       a line to count as escaped whitespace.
     + Modified LaTeX reader to produce inline links rather than
       reference links.  Otherwise, links in footnotes aren't handled
       properly.
     + Fixed handling of titles in links in Markdown reader, so that
       embedded quotation marks are now handled properly.
     + Fixed Markdown reader's handling of embedded brackets in links.
     + Fixed Markdown reader so that it only parses bracketed material
       as a reference link if there is actually a corresponding key.
     + Revised inline code parsing in Markdown reader to conform to
       markdown standard.  Now any number of `s can begin inline code,
       which will end with the same number of `s.  For example, to
       have two backticks as code, write ``` `` ```.  Modified Markdown
       writer accordingly.
     + Fixed bug in text-wrapping routine in Markdown and RST writers.
       Now LineBreaks no longer cause wrapping problems.
     + Supported hexadecimal numerical entity references as well as
       decimal ones.
     + Fixed bug in Markdown reader's handling of underscores and other
       inline formatting markers inside reference labels:  for example,
       in '[A_B]: /url/a_b', the material between underscores was being
       parsed as emphasized inlines.
     + Changed Markdown reader's handling of backslash escapes so that
       only non-alphanumeric characters can be escaped.  Strict mode
       follows Markdown.pl in only allowing a select group of punctuation
       characters to be escaped.
     + Modified HTML reader to skip a newline following a <br> tag.
       Otherwise the newline will be treated as a space at the beginning
       of the next line.
 
   * Made handling of code blocks more consistent.  Previously, some
     readers allowed trailing newlines, while others stripped them.
     Now, all readers strip trailing newlines in code blocks. Writers
     insert a newline at the end of code blocks as needed.
 
   * Modified readers to make spacing at the end of output more
     consistent.
 
   * Minor improvements to LaTeX reader:
 
     + '\thanks' now treated like a footnote.
     + Simplified parsing of LaTeX command arguments and options.
       commandArgs now returns a list of arguments OR options (in
       whatever order they appear).  The brackets are included, and
       a new stripFirstAndLast function is provided to strip them off
       when needed.  This fixes a problem in dealing with \newcommand
       and \newenvironment.
 
   * Revised RTF writer:
 
     + Default font is now Helvetica.
     + An '\f0' is added to each '\pard', so that font resizing works
       correctly.
 
   * Moved handling of "smart typography" from the writers to the
     Markdown and LaTeX readers.  This allows great simplification of the
     writers and more accurate smart quotes, dashes, and ellipses.
     DocBook can now use '<quote>'.  The '--smart' option now toggles an
     option in the parser state rather than a writer option.  Several new
     kinds of inline elements have been added: Quoted, Ellipses,
     Apostrophe, EmDash, EnDash.
 
   * Changes in HTML writer:
 
     + Include title block in header even when title is null.
     + Made javascript obfuscation of emails even more obfuscatory,
       by combining it with entity obfuscation.
 
   * Changed default ASCIIMathML text color to black.
 
   * Test suite:
 
     + Added --strip-trailing-cr option to diff in runtests.pl, for
       compatibility with Windows.
     + Added regression tests with footnotes in quote blocks and lists.
 
   * Makefile changes:
 
     + osx-pkg target creates a Mac OS X package (directory). New osx
       directory contains files needed for construction of the package.
     + osx-dmg target creates a compressed disk image containing the
       package.
     + win-pkg target creates Windows binary package.
     + tarball target creates distribution source tarball.
     + website target generates pandoc's website automatically, including
       demos.  New 'web' directory containts files needed for
       construction of the website (which will be created as the 'pandoc'
       subdirectory
       of 'web').
     + Makefile checks to see if we're running Windows/Cygwin; if so,
       a '.exe' extension is added to each executable in EXECS.
 
   * Removed all wrappers except markdown2pdf and html2markdown.
 
   * Added new wrapper hsmarkdown, to be used as a drop-in replacement
     for Markdown.pl.  hsmarkdown calls pandoc with the '--strict'
     option and disables other options.
 
   * Added code to html2markdown that tries to determine the character
     encoding of an HTML file, by parsing the "Content-type" meta tag.
 
     + If the encoding can't be determined, then if the content is local,
       the local encoding is used; if it comes from a URL, UTF-8 is used
       by default.
     + If input is from STDIN, don't try to determine character encoding.
     + Encoding can be specified explicitly using '-e' option.
 
   * Improved warning messages in wrappers:
 
     + Print warning if iconv not available
     + More user-friendly error messages in markdown2pdf, when
       pdflatex fails.
 
   * Code cleanup:
 
     + Renamed 'Text/Pandoc/HtmlEntities' module to
       'Text/Pandoc/Entities'. Also changed function names so as
       not to be HTML-specific.
     + Refactored SGML string escaping functions from HTML and Docbook
       writers into Text/Pandoc/Shared.  (escapeSGML, stringToSGML)
     + Removed 'BlockQuoteContext' from ParserContext, as it isn't
       used anywhere.
     + Removed splitBySpace and replaced it with a general, polymorphic
       splitBy function.
     + Refactored LaTeX reader for clarity (added isArg function).
     + Converted some CR's to LF's in src/ui/default/print.css.
     + Added license text to top of source files.
     + Added module data for haddock to source files.
     + Reformatted code for consistency.
 
   * Rewrote documentation and man pages.  Split README into INSTALL
     and README.
 
   * Split LICENSE into COPYING and COPYRIGHT.
 
   * Removed TODO, since we now maintain ToDo on the wiki.
 
   * Made COPYRIGHT in top level a symlink to debian/copyright, to avoid
     duplication.
 
   [ Recai Oktaş ]
 
   * Revamped build process to conform to debian standards and created
     a proper debian package.  Closes: #391666.
 
   * Modified build process to support GHC 6.6.
 
     + The package can still be compiled using GHC 6.4.2, though because
       of dependencies the "make deb" target works only with GHC 6.6+.
     + The script 'cabalize' is used to create an appropriate
       'Pandoc.cabal' from 'Pandoc.cabal.in', depending on the GHC and
       Cabal versions.
 
   * Refactored template processing (fillTemplates.pl).
 
   * Modified wrapper scripts to make them more robust and portable.
     To avoid code duplication and ensure consistency, wrappers are
     generated via a templating system from templates in src/wrappers.
 
     + Wrappers now accept multiple filenames, when appropriate.
     + Spaces and tabs allowed in filenames.
     + getopts shell builtin is used for portable option parsing.
     + Improved html2markdown's web grabber code, making it more robust,
       configurable and verbose.  Added '-e', '-g' options.
