# Changes
## 3.7.1 (2024-09-30)
Development:
- Remove dependency on `UnicodeData.txt`. (#400, #458 #486, #492, #499)
This change improves the speed of parsing markdown input by up to 25%
for a cold conversion run and makes life easier for users of TeX
distributions other than TeX Live, such as MikTeX and ConTeXt Standalone,
where `UnicodeData.txt` may not be as easily available. This change also
adds a new file `markdown-unicode-data.lua`, which must be properly
installed with the rest of the Markdown package.
- Add renderers `warning` and `error` that represent warnings and errors
produced by the markdown parser. (#452, #473, #496)
Fixes:
- Properly load LaTeX themes when `theme` or `import` is used in
`\usepackage[...]{markdown}`. (#471, #498)
- Prevent endless loop when setting deprecated `jekyllDataString` (renderer)
prototype. (#500)
- Correctly handle backslashes in `\markdownOptionOutputDir` on Windows.
(#492, #500, reported by @l0th3r)
- Fix hard line breaks in blockquotes.
(#494, #495, reported by @l0th3r, #496, contributed by @lostenderman)
Deprecation:
- Soft-deprecate the `hybrid` option. (#470, #504, 546faa87)
Soft-deprecated features will never be removed but using them prints a
warning and is discouraged. Instead of the `hybrid` option, consider one of
the following better alternatives for mixing TeX and markdown:
- With the `contentBlocks` option, authors can move large blocks of TeX
code to separate files and include them in their markdown documents as
external resources.
- With the `rawAttribute` option, authors can denote raw text spans and
code blocks that will be interpreted as TeX code.
- With options `texMathDollars`, `texMathSingleBackslash`, and
`texMathDoubleBackslash`, authors can freely type TeX commands between
dollar signs or backslash-escaped brackets.

## 3.7.0 (2024-08-30)
Development:
- Add renderer `jekyllDataProgrammaticString` for processing YAML
string scalars that do not contain markdown markup and are not
intended for typesetting.

sponsored by @istqborg)
This improves the speed of parsing markdown input by up to 500%.
- Enable option `eagerCache` by default. (#468, #490, sponsored by @istqborg)
This improves the speed by up to 25% for large documents with many
markdown fragments that require multiple compilation runs.
- Prevent loading the full Markdown package when converting cached markdown
fragments. (#487, #491, 40f0803f, 6609d43d, sponsored by @istqborg)
This significantly improves the speed for large documents with many
markdown fragments that require multiple compilation runs in pdfTeX.
Deprecation:
- Deprecate `jekyllDataString` renderer and renderer prototype.
(istqborg/istqb_product_base#46, #440, #451, sponsored by @istqborg)

test fails.
## 2.6.0 (2018-04-09)
*Except for some minor changes in the README document, this version is
identical to version 2.5.6. The author realized that they had forgotten to
increase the minor version number despite adding a significant amount of new
functionality.*

Development:
- Added a Lua command-line interface.
- Added the `stripPercentSign` Lua option for using markdown in TeX package
documentation.
Fixes:
- Fixed TeX Live 2013 minted package detection.

hash signs.

- Removed the no-op `outputDir` Lua option.
Documentation:
- Added a user manual.
- Added information for contributors to the README document.
- Increased portability of the technical documentation by using a built-in
BibLaTeX style.
- Rewrote the technical documentation in markdown using the new
`stripPercentSign` Lua option.
Miscellaneous:
- Tuned the continuous integration service configuration, so that tests run
under 15 minutes.

Documentation:
- Fixed a typo in section 2.2.1.
- Documented that the `contentBlocksCode` renderer receives five arguments.

Fixes:
- `\markdownInfo` writes only to the log in the plain TeX implementation.
- `\markdownInfo` and `\markdownWarning` start a new line in the plain TeX
implementation.
- Lua errors are now caught even with shell escape.
Development:
- Added an `outputDir` option that enables the use of the TeX
`-output-directory` option.
## 2.5.3 (2017-05-07)
Fixes:
- Added a missing file `examples/scientists.csv` to the CTAN archive.
Documentation:
- Added examples into the TDS archive.
- Replaced tux in the examples with a generic example image.
Development:
- Updated the code for initializing testfiles.
## 2.5.2 (2017-04-28)
Fixes:
- Added proper support for trailing internal punctuation in citations.
## 2.5.1 (2017-04-27)
Fixes:

- Removed unnecessary internal punctuation escaping (`$&~`) in citations.
Documentation:
- Corrected typo in bibliography.
## 2.5.0 (2017-04-10)
New features:
- Added the `codeSpans` and `underscores` options.
Documentation:
- Reordered options alphabetically.
## 2.4.0 (2017-03-27)
Fixes:
- Fixed the number of arguments in the `\markdownError` dummy definition.
New features:
- Added [the iA Writer content blocks syntax
extension](https://github.com/Witiko/markdown/issues/4).
Documentation:
- Fixed errors in the Lua interface documentation.
- Fixed a typo in the `tests/templates` directory documentation.
Development:
- Added parallelized unit testing.
## 2.3.0 (2017-01-05)
Fixes:
- ConTeXt module no longer mishandles active characters from `\enableregime`.
- Shell access is no longer necessary with ConTeXt MarkIV.
- The default renderers now render strong emphasis using a bold font face
rather than a bold-italic font face.
- Lazy blockquotes are now parsed properly.
New features:
- Added optional HTML support; when the support is enabled, the Markdown reader
will recognize HTML elements, entities, instructions, and comments in the
input.
- Added optional breakable blockquotes support; when the support is enabled,
blockquotes can be split apart using blank lines.
Documentation:
- Documented the behavior of the `-output-directory` TeX option.
Development:
- Removed unnecessary PEG patterns.
- PEG patterns are now hash table entries rather than local variables; this was
a necessary step due to the local variable number limit. This change was also
backported to and merged by the
[upstream project](https://github.com/jgm/lunamark).
- The unit test templates now use M4 instead of ad-hoc sed string replacement.
- The Lua text buffering routine was removed as it only introduced complexity
to the package with no tangible benefits. All text buffering is now done in
TeX. As a corrolary, the `\markdownLuaRegisterIBCallback` and
`\markdownLuaUnregisterIBCallback` macros have been deprecated.
## 2.2.2 (2016-12-09)
Fixes:
- Inline footnotes can now be enabled via the LaTeX interface.

Fixes:

## 2.1.2 (2016-09-14)
Fixes:
- Unordered list items now may begin with a `bulletchar`.

- Expanded the documentation on `hashEnumerators`.
## 2.1.1 (2016-09-06)
Fixes:
- The citations extension should now be fully compliant with the
[Pandoc spec](http://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#citations).
- The `citationNbsps` option now also affects newlines, as is expected.
- The default `\markdownOptionCacheDir` explicitly specifies the current
working directory, so that the cache files are not sought in the TeX
directory structure.
Documentation:
- Added information about the supported LuaTeX versions.
- Added information about the portable use of the package.
Development:
- All the syntax extensions (fenced code blocks and citations) were merged by
the [upstream project](http://github.com/jgm/lunamark).

- `inputFencedCode`.
- Added the following Lua options:
- `citations`, `citationNbsps`,
- `fencedCode`, and `blankBeforeCodeFence`.
Changes in behavior:

if the input of the conversion function ends with `\n\n`, `\n`, or nothing.
- LaTeX interface `rendererPrototypes` keys for the `pipe`, `link`, and `image`
renderers no longer incorrectly set the `\markdownRenderers` macros
rather than the `\markdownRenderersPrototype` macros.

Fixes:
- Fixed nested `keyval` handling inside `\markdownSetup` et al.

under TeXLive 2012.
Development:
- Added the package to a continuous integration service.
## 2.0.0 (2016-08-15)
New features:
- Added raw unescaped URI to the `link` and `image` renderer arguments.
(This breaks backwards compatibility, hence the major version number bump.)
- Added renderers for plain TeX and ConteXt special characters.
Fixes:
- Make autolinks work by preventing `Str` from consuming `<`.
- Non-found footnote ref no longer outputs unescaped text.
- Catcode of `|` is now other in `\markdownReadAndConvert` for ConTeXt.
