2018-06-08Rewrite the projectLoïc Hoguin
The new code is much more readable and easier to extend. I took inspiration from Haskell's Parsec project which seems to only write the happy-path and applied the idea to Erlang's exceptions. When the parser tries to parse, say, a list, and crashes, it tries with a table next, and so on until something matches. Normal paragraphs always match so there can be no parsing failures. The parser now has a number of passes: first the block parser, then lists and tables passes to build a proper tree out of them and finally an inline pass to apply inline formatting. The resulting AST can then be modified at will and passed on to translator modules which output a different format. The man page translator was also rewritten and has been tested against both Cowboy and Gun. Numerous issues were fixed as a result of this rewrite.

2016-10-31Make extra man page fields configurableLoïc Hoguin
2016-10-31Add compress and outdir options to man translatorLoïc Hoguin
2016-10-18Fix the AST and add tests for formattingLoïc Hoguin
Also opened the way to making configurable quoted text elements, like the original Asciidoc allows. We could potentially end up allowing users to define different types of quotes producing custom AST.
2016-10-17Initial commitLoïc Hoguin
This is still very much in a proof of concept state, though the project should be in a good enough state that future additions are relatively painless. Text formatting nodes are not using the proper form in the AST at the moment. They should not be relied upon just yet.
