Etch v0.4

Not just a text formatter, don't mark it down, etch it.

Syntax

• Not too dissimilar from Markdown, simpler yet also more powerful:

  ```

  My Document

  This is what etch text looks like!

  [a] You can tag entire blocks of text with a tag prefix, individual words[b] with a tag suffix, or [entire spans of text][b] using square brackets.

  [a: .myClass]

  [b: @alt surprise alt text!]

  [c: @https://example.com]

  And lastly, tags can be declared when you first reference them[d: .nice] and the tag name is optional[.cool]. ```

• Documents can import other documents:

  ```

  import[my-document.etch]

  ```

  Or other files as preformatted text:

  ``` [css]

  import[my-css-example.css]

  ```

• Documents can contain custom metadata such as a title or description:

  ```

  meta[title: My Document]

  ```

• Plugin API allows for transforming documents or injecting custom parsers.

• Code syntax highlighting provided by the Syntect plugin.

A more complete example of Etch syntax can be found in the [samples directory].

Usage

```rs use etch::Etch; use etch::plugins::*;

fn main() { let metadata = MetadataPlugin::new(); let wordcount = WordCountPlugin::new(); let etch = Etch::default() .withplugin(metadata.clone()) .withplugin(wordcount.clone()) .withplugin(SyntectPlugin::new()) .withplugin(WidowedWordsPlugin::new()) .withdocument("mydocument.etch");

println!("{:#?}", etch.render());
println!("{:#?}", metadata);
println!("{:#?}", word_count);

} ```
