- toastal 4y agoIt does do some things better and I appreciate calling it a new name and 'starting over' instead of another fork, but what's not covered is metadata. If I want to add author, license, tags, keywords, description, etc. there is no in-document way to do this. Almost all other media format types from images, audio, to other documents like ODF have a way to do metadata and this (and Markdown) doesn't cover said important use case. Seems there's a long-standing (for the project) open issue where it's still being mulled over. Imports are also very nice for writing longer texts--especially how AsciiDoc lets you +1 all of your headings so the heading hierarchy works as a standalone document and a part of a larger whole.
- matklad 4y agoYeah, it’s definitely a wip at this point, though it is already general enough to express meta and imports. You could write # Title : key = value ```include ./examples/hello.rs ``` today and write a simple filter to extract meta from the first definition list and resolve includes.
- toastal 4y agoI appreciate that you pointed it out though to give me a chance to reevaluate my thoughts on the project. It seems it has a better trajectory than when I had last looked.
