Re: Does AsciiDoc have support for scientific papers?

2020-10-16 Thread Derek Jones

Stéphane,


I'd better make clear that my whole workflow is still based on traditional 
Asciidoc python implementation.


Scripts can be integrated into the Asciidoc workflow:
https://shape-of-code.coding-guidelines.com/2019/08/11/my-books-pdf-generation-workflow/

to produce all manner of layouts, but some fiddling is needed to
add numbering to equations:

Re: asciidoc.org looks stale - offering help

Dan,


There's a converter for LaTeX. (
https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-latex/) You can also generate
LaTeX by converting to DocBook, then using the DocBook toolchain.


Thanks.  I had missed that.  Will have a look.

Re: asciidoc standard

2018-12-10 Thread Derek Jones

Jaime,


So when people in asciidoctor write code they do it on the fly. Someone
says "I'm going to implement this". Nobody writes it down, the coder
programs it, but has no time to write what the program was supposed to do.
So to know what asciidoctor does they skim the code.


Welcome to the world of open source.


Having multiple implementations is good for the ecosystem


Developers spend time writing stuff because they enjoy it,
not because of the good of the world.


With no written standard, what you are going to get is divergent
implementations and  probably a fight to rule standard.


Ha ha.  There are plenty of multiple standards for the same
'thing'.


Once again. The implementation must already be there, somewhere. I don't
believe they write code from the empty air.


I've done that.


I'm really astonished.


You're new.

Re: AsciiDoc3 Python3 Port released asciidoc3.org

2018-04-18 Thread Derek Jones

Dan,

How many other people have jumped to the same conclusion that
I did?

Why not point the news page at the Github release blog?


You have a point that the news section of the website has not mentioned any
new releases. We decided not to use that to announce release anymore
because it was too much overhead. All the releases are announced instead on
the GitHub releases page, which I'm using as the release blog.

Thanks for this.

Please research more before commenting about the health of a project. It's

very damaging to the project to make such impulsive statements.



I get my information from the Asciidoctor webite:

If you want to attract the drive by users, you need to keep
your website up to date.

Re: AsciiDoc3 Python3 Port released asciidoc3.org

2018-04-17 Thread Derek Jones

Lex,


What is your basis for that statement?  I am not an Asciidoctor dev,
but I can say it most definitely does not seem to have stalled to me. > Have 
you been watching the Github repository?


The last update listed on the asciidoctor website is from a few years
ago.


There were 21 code commits in the last two days. Plus many discussion posts.


I have not checked in detail, but changes these days appear to be in
documentation and config files.

I will give it a go on a book I am working on.

Re: AsciiDoc3 Python3 Port released asciidoc3.org

2018-04-17 Thread Derek Jones



you can find the brand-new Python3 port AsciiDoc3 at www.asciidoc3.org and
on github.com/asciidoc3/asciidoc3.
All 170 AsciiDoc testcases are passed! Have fun with 'Text based document
generation using Python 3.x'.


It's great to see development happening (asciidoctor work seems t
have stalled).

I will give it a go on a book I am working on.

Hit the wrong reply button,


What docbook do you get?  Does it validate?


It gets very confused:

Equations in footnotes broken via docbook

All,

There is a problem in equations in footnotes when
going via docbook.

Has anybody know of a workaround to this problem?


asciidoc -a latexmath -b docbook45 -d book  t.txt

Blah blah
footnote:[ If latexmath:[$f_1$]
and latexmath:[$f_2$]
are normal densities.]

Fixing bugs for Asciidoc

2015-08-27 Thread Derek Jones

All,

I'm sure there are people on this list who have fixed annoying bugs in 
Asciidoc, I certainly have.


I am currently working on a book using Asciidoc and am willing to
put a bit of effort into integrating bug fixes into the 6.8.9 sources.

If you are willing to post your bug fixes, please let me know.

I am not interested in:

   o a bug report unless it comes with the code that fixes it,

   o code rewrites,

   o new features (unless I happen to find them useful for what I am 
doing).


If there is a reasonable response to this query I will push my current
sources to github.
