Apex has always supported Kramdown-style IAL (Inline Attribute Lists), but I’ve been steadily adding more Pandoc compatibility. The latest release brings several new features that make Apex work better with Pandoc-style markdown while maintaining backward compatibility.

I’ve been working a bit more on mdtosendy, my Ruby script for converting Markdown to email-ready HTML, and recently added a multi-template system that makes it much more flexible for managing different email designs.

I’m excited to share that Apex version 0.1.41 has comprehensive support for Inline Attribute Lists (IALs), including inline IALs for span-level elements, key-value pairs, and Attribute List Definitions (ALDs). This brings Apex’s IAL support to full feature parity with Kramdown.

Apex was designed to make using existing Markdown syntax from a range of tools (CommonMark, GFM, MultiMarkdown, Kramdown, mmark) easier — not to add a bunch of new or special syntax. Plugins allow you to add your own syntax and even entirely new tools to markdown generation, keeping the core focused while giving you the flexibility to extend it however you need.

NA has always had its own search syntax for navigating TaskPaper files, but it didn’t understand TaskPaper’s actual search syntax. I thought it might be time to change that.
