Re: Good Intentions: Wikisyntax for the Monastery

Bugreport:

PRE tags don't block expansion of single quotes:

<c>
perl -we 'say'
</c>

<pre>
perl -we 'say'
</pre>

Update: rendered as

perl -we 'say'

perl -we say

See? No single quotes in the last line!

Hi

I just noticed that <pre> tags allowed that <p> tags were included which is against the meaning of "pre-formatting".

pre-blocks are now excluded from any wiki-expansion

<pre>
*a* /b/
# 2 newlines following

https://perlmonks.org/
</pre>

displays now as

*a* /b/
# 2 newlines following

https://perlmonks.org/

update

<blockquote> are now also excluded, but that's experimental.

[LanX]

Rather a feature request, don't you think?

Why should pre tags be handled like code tags? °

AFAIR do pre tags never block any other expansion, I wouldn't know why they should.

Could you please elaborate?

Edit:

Please think about how

<pre>a
<code>bla</code>
b</pre>

is rendered

---

a
bla
b

---

and tell me why the behavior should be different now.

update Feb 07 2020

°) OK paragraph is a reason, see Re^2: Good Intentions: Wikisyntax for the Monastery (pre-blocks excluded now)

I think this is close to what you want.

I have only to find a way to make nowiki invisible in output but persistent in edit mode.

  <nowiki>  <pre> 

perl -we 'say' 

</pre> </nowiki>

---

<nowiki>

 

perl -we 'say' 

</nowiki>

Wrap it in <!-- ... -->?

[LanX]

Yes it's possible, but it breaks the orthogonal approach how I combine features.

I have to think about the best maintainable way in this "framework".

for instance what has priority when parsing? <c> or <nowiki> ?

And more importantly, would you use <nowiki> ?
