Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-457:
----------------------------------------
bq. I tested my example "Add missing <i> tag" outside RDM with pandoc and it
passes the <i> through unescaped.
RDM already escapes <i> as \<i\>. pandoc won't treat that as a HTML directive
and will correctly put in the HTML entities in when converting. You can see
this in action with RELEASENOTES.0.17.0, HADOOP-2818 and lots of other places
where angle brackets are already in use. This particular use case came up very
early when writing RDM because it was so prevalent. :)
bq. Regarding the JIRA IDs, sure we can not escape hyphen, but would you mind
if I still changed write_list to not pass them through sanitize_text?
Sure. But at a minimum, you'll need to convert to UTF-8....
Also, it looks like entries like [HOD] aren't being converted to links by
pandoc, github, etc so we might be OK to let squares go through unchanged.
That said...
I think the list should be:
* add a conversion of ' to \'
* update the comments to make clear we're using MultiMarkdown and, if using
pandoc, then use -f markdown_mmd.
* better comments and re-arranging the functions
* whatever you want to do with converting the URL to UTF-8.
Thanks.
