No it doesn't: pacman -S pandoc. The relevant question here is whether we can accept to rely on pandoc for CSL support. Any other feature is irrelevant. At 25MB, a static, precompiled pandoc is probably fine, but for users of some OSs, such as Archlinux or even worse some OS where pandoc is not generally available as a precompiled package, it’s a really, really big dependency. I may still be the best option, though. Rasmus -- And when I’m finished thinking, I have to die a lot
