* Package name : cmark-gfm Version : 0.28.3.gfm.12 Upstream Author : John MacFarlane <j...@berkeley.edu> * URL : https://ithub.com/github/cmark * License : BSD, MIT/X Programming Lang: C Description : GitHub enhanced version of cmark, the common markdown parser Common Markdown provides a useful standardized language for building formatted documents. The 'cmark' parser, already in Debian, provides a basic parser implementing the core Common Markdown standard. People involved in the GitHub system have forked 'cmark' in a way which leaves the core language unchanged but extends the system to add table and other additional formatting methods. This extended version of Common Markdown is used within the github system for formatting .md files in project repositories and, as such, is becoming widely used within that environment. I've got preliminary packaging working here: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/keithp/cmark-gfm.git/ I'm packaging this so I can use it to replace asciidoc in the altos package as asciidoc is being deprecated.
