The Old Geek Diary<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/reStructuredText" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reStructuredText</span></a>​의 단점 중 하나는 속칭 위키링크(wikilink) 문법이 없다는 것이다. [[page]] 대신 :doc:`title &lt;page&gt;`로 적어야 한다. (:ref:`title`도 된다고 한다.) 많이 쓰면 익숙해지긴 하겠지만 일단은 [[page]]로 적어 놓고 나중에 고칠 거 같다. 장점도 물론 있다. 하지만 위키가 아니라 하이퍼 링크로 인식하게 될 것이다. 위키라는 개념은 이러한 문법 하나에서 시작한 것일 수도 있을 것 같다.</p><p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37553750/how-can-i-link-reference-another-rest-file-in-the-documentation" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">stackoverflow.com/questions/37</span><span class="invisible">553750/how-can-i-link-reference-another-rest-file-in-the-documentation</span></a></p>
Glyph<p>Twisted's coding standard for our <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ReStructuredText" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReStructuredText</span></a> files is to use what we have termed "semantic newlines". That is to say: every sentence is on its own line. In principle, I like this. It means smaller, more readable diffs, and less pointless churn. In practice, with my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Emacs</span></a> fill-paragraph muscle memory, it is a *constant* frustrating exercise where I'm tripping over myself and either constantly re-wrapping and then manually un-wrapping, or forgetting to wrap at all.</p>
Jeff MacKinnon<p>Is there a project similar to <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/rst2pdf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rst2pdf</span></a> for markdown, and is there a project for <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/rst" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rst</span></a> that may be a little more active? While it is stable, which I like, I would like to see more updates on their repo, even if its just minor, showing that there is some activity.</p><p><a href="https://github.com/rst2pdf/rst2pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">github.com/rst2pdf/rst2pdf</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Looking for something "light" that doesn't use LaTeX to create the PDF.</p><p><a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/rst" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rst</span></a> <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/markdown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>markdown</span></a> <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/restructuredtext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>restructuredtext</span></a> <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/pdf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pdf</span></a> <a href="https://bluenoser.me/tags/pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pandoc</span></a></p>
