Hi Hraban,
If it works and adheres to the necessary structure, I’ll add it to the
list of installable modules. I don’t judge usefulness.
We should appreciate efforts so indeed no judgements (unless of course
something doesn't fit into context or is overloading or conflicting with
existing functionality but that is hard to determine and we have no time
to check code anyway.)
I’d use Pandoc to convert Markdown to ConTeXt, if it’s just one-time, like:
pandoc -f markdown -t context --template=mytemplate.tex pandoc-
example.md > example.tex
And if it is one-time then I suppose you do some cleanup and adaptation?
(Make me wonder, does converting to e.g. xml or docbook give a more rich
starting point? After all we can handle that.)
Otherwise, Aditya’s filter module covers most cases of inclusion of
text-based formats: https://github.com/adityam/filter
I found back some old m-markdown files (more a historic thing as i never
was much into markdown apart from once speeding up and mem-fixing some
third party lua code) so i'll add these to the distribution which then
means that with the proposed new module users then have plenty
possibilities. It reminds me that we need to follow up on the asciidoc
presented at meetings in order to get the repertoire covered.
