Revision history for djot

0.1.4.3 – 2026-09-23

• Fix dropped attribute when attaching to last word of merged Strs. E.g. in x y.z{.c}, the class was silently discarded.

• Fix implicit reference labels spanning multiple lines. Two bugs conspired to make [link\ntext][] resolve to an empty href even when a “link text” reference was defined.

• Fix resumable attribute parser ignoring new input on resume. Previously a multiline block attribute followed by an indented block never finished parsing and the attributes were silently dropped, e.g.:

  {#id .class
    style="color:red"}
    A paragraph
  

• Avoid quadratic inline parsing by caching chunk count. Previously parsing a paragraph was quadratic in the number of lines.

• Speed up HTML escaping by copying unescaped runs wholesale.

• Wrap letter list markers around after 26.

• Fix off-by-one in tab column computation.

• Propagate inline parse errors in parseTextLines instead of crashing.

• Make NoPos an identity for <>, so Monoid Pos is lawful. Previously NoPos was absorbing (NoPos <> p = NoPos), which would silently discard positions in any law-relying generic code (mconcat, fold). The only internal uses of <> on Pos (merging adjacent Strs) always combine two Pos or two NoPos values, so this does not change any parsing or rendering behavior.

• Fix UTF-8 truncation in inlinesToByteString.

• Improve classification of autolinks. Previously <[email protected]> was rendered as a plain URL link, not an email link. It’s an email link if it contains an ‘@’ preceded by a character other than ‘:’.

• Preserve soft breaks for CR-only line endings.

• Add tests for whitespace collapsing in quoted attribute values.

• Fix off-by-one in pAtMost.

• Skip empty chunks when advancing to the next chunk.

• Speed up djot rendering of Str inlines:

  • Rewrite escapeDjot to work directly on ByteStrings, copying runs of unescapable characters wholesale instead of processing character by character through String. (Equivalence with the old implementation checked with 100,000 QuickCheck cases.)
  • Skip the smart-punctuation replacement passes when the ByteString contains no 0xE2 byte (the first byte of all the UTF-8 sequences involved), avoiding five T.replace traversals per Str in the common case.
  • Avoid emitting an empty literal after each single-space chunk.

0.1.4.2 – 2026-08-27

• Djot renderer: emit raw blocks/inlines for formats other than djot (#18).

• Djot renderer: Fix calculation of fence length. We needed to add one to the length of the biggest backtick string in the code.

• Fix two bugs in footnote handling:

  • Allow spaces and newlines in footnote references, as with djot.js.
  • Don’t put a duplicate id on a second reference to same note.

0.1.4.1 – 2026-07-21

• Fix bug in verbatim parsing (#17). We were wrongly allowing backslash escapes for backticks.

• Fix resolution of reference links with newlines (#16).

0.1.4 – 2026-03-17

• Ensure that delims aren’t matched in link destinations (#15).

• Change behavior for empty link label. To match djot.js; we now take the string content (rather than raw source) of the link description, so e.g. emphasis is ignored.

• Html renderer: don’t emit empty href for undefined ref link. This conforms to djot.js behavior, expected in tests.

• Update links_and_images test from reference impl: djot.js.

0.1.3 – 2026-02-01

• Fix nested sections bug when sections contain only lists (#14). When a section contained only list elements (no paragraphs), subsequent headings at the same level were incorrectly nested inside the previous section instead of being siblings.

• CLI: add --version option (#13).

• Export version from Djot module. [API change]

• Remove some INLINE pragmas. These don’t make a measurable difference in benchmarks.

• There can’t be a blank line btw block attrs and block. Cf. https://github.com/jgm/djot.js/issues/118

0.1.2.4 – 2025-11-30

• Ensure that '95--'96 doesn’t get parsed as singlequoted.

• Properly handle bare '} for right single-quote (#12).

0.1.2.3 – 2025-09-27

• Fix swallowing of indentation in code under blockquote (#11).

0.1.2.2 – 2024-10-04

• Allow list items with blank lines between divs (#10).

• Fix parsing of indented tables (#8).

0.1.2.1 – 2024-06-24

• Djot writer: include separator line in table when the table has non-default alignments but no header (#7).

0.1.2 – 2024-05-10

• Allow _ in symbols (see jgm/djot#296).

• Add Lift derivations to AST datatypes (#5, Gideon Farrell) [API change].

0.1.1.3 – 2024-03-17

• Ensure that tables end when we hit a blank line (#4).

• Fix parsing of table immediately after list (#4).

0.1.1.2 – 2024-03-14

• Fix bug parsing regular paragraphs after list (#4).

0.1.1.1 – 2024-03-03

• Revert “Djot.Blocks: use ByteString directly in toIdentifier (#1)” This caused problems for UTF-8 sequences that contained the byte 0xa0, which B8.words treats as a space character.

• AST: avoid using B8.words in normalizeLabel.

• Avoid using isSpace in attribute parsing. isSpace matches a byte 0x0a, which can break up a UTF-8 sequence. Limit to ASCII whitespace.

  • Add test with UTF-8 identifier. See jgm/pandoc#9541.

0.1.1.0 – 2024-02-29

• Add Data instances to everything in the AST [API change].

• Ensure that block attributes are indented on subsequent lines (#2).

• Djot.Blocks: use ByteString directly in toIdentifier (#1, Vaibhav Sagar).

0.1.0.0 – 2024-02-14

• Initial release.
