Description
I have a need for markup for both subscripts and tables in both {{README}}s and wikis. I thought BB-reST might satisfy this requirement, since reST supports both and BB supports reST for both {{README}}s and wikis.
I run debian with pandoc=1.9.4.2 installed, so I downloaded one of my {{README.md}}s, converted it to reST, and edited the output, eventually producing https://bitbucket.org/tlroche/lightningnox/raw/dc5d1087f0741786b300d2676b2a500c72dcbf92/README.rst
When I convert that to PDF with
pandoc -r rst ./README.rst -o ./README.pdf
the output PDF renders appropriately. Thus I claim my README.rst is "pandoc-correct" ... unless pandoc's LaTeX renderer is correcting output from its reST renderer, which seems unlikely.
But the BB-reST renderer @ https://bitbucket.org/tlroche/lightningnox (or @ https://bitbucket.org/tlroche/lightningnox/src/dc5d1087f0741786b300d2676b2a500c72dcbf92/README.rst?at=master ) fails to render 1 of the many simple links in that README.rst: the second link in the first sentence of paragraph=summary (near top of page). Again, this link, as well as all the others, was rendered correctly by pandoc (see top of PDF p1/5) from the same source README.rst.
Note that BB-reST also fails to render subscripts correctly, which also may be causing its failure to render another, subscript-containing link in TODO 4/9 (near bottom of page). However
- again, pandoc renders the subscript-containing link correctly--see top of PDF p5/5.
- the BB-reST subscript-rendering issue should have no direct impact on this link-rendering issue.
