hyper-markdown v0.6.3

Hyper-Markdown

This is a markdown superset, providing extra syntax.

This contains original markdown + GFM + specific Hyper-Markdown syntax.

Note: This package is built on top of a fork of Christopher Jeffrey's marked (MIT license).

Why another Markdown extension?

The objective of Hyper-Markdown is “zero HTML for content”.

Markdown, especially with the GFM extension, almost reached this goal, but there are still few common cases where HTML is still necessary.

Specific Hyper-Markdown syntax

• Block markup (at the begining of a line): * *** can be used as a third level of emphasis and generate a mark tag !![caption](url) create a figure (block) tag containing an image or a media having url as source, it uses the text inside brackets as content for a figcaption tag :!![caption](url) same, but make the figure float to the left (i.e. give it classes float and float-left) !!:[caption](url) same, but make the figure float to the right (i.e give it classes float and float-right) ||| column break (close/open "column" custom tags) +++ (or + + + or ++++++++ or anything following the horizontal rule syntax) are used as section break: it clears all columns and start over on a fresh one-column section (close/open "section" tags) automatic column span for header of table having less columns than the rest of the table headerless table support: start directly with the |---|---|-like syntax caption table support: when using a header syntax with only one column but the |---|---|-like separator has at least 2 columns, this line is considered as a caption instead of a header, a table header can still be added before the first separator multi-line table, using the |---|---|-like syntax as row splitter, multi-line is supported for caption, header, and regular table body rows, separators are only necessary between regular table body rows - [ ] or * [ ] or + [ ] introduce a todo list item - [x] or ` x or+ x introduce a todo list item done *--` as a block markup is used to cite someone, usually inside a blockquote
