I&39;m privately swamped at the moment but hopeto get a rest soon.Yes, the parser deals with lists as you investigated, mostly to makeusage as simple and intuitive as possible. So a list end is detectedwhenever another paragraph type starts. This implies that lists do notneed to be closed explicitly, regardless of their nesting level. Theparser closes them implicitly.The internal grammar of nested lists is a chain: a sequence of listsseparated.http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg58.html pp2html: subtle bug by Robert Inder- March 25, 2002 I&39;ve found a problem with pp2html. pp2html tries to detect empty table cells, and plant an " " in them to make them look sensible when the HTML is rendered.Unfortunately, the way it detects empty cells is too simplistic.It just looks for text pending in BUFFER.But some things --- for instance IMAGE tags --- do not put theirtext in BUFFER. So pp2html inserts a spurious , and thiscan make table cells too big.I don&39;t understand why some things go in BUFFER and..http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg57.html Re: pp2Latex "bug" and question by lorenz- March 25, 2002 Please see attached textLorenzhttp://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg56.html pp2Latex "bug" and question by Robert Inder- March 23, 2002 I&39;ve found a misfeature of pp2latex that is so severe that I&39;dcall it a bug! A link like... Lurl=foo<bah>translates into commands that typeset the URL in smallfont, and then put the body. This is a very strange decision -- it certainly is not how I wouldwant to formathandle a linkURL. I believe the right thing to do is to instead plant a LaTeX command whichwill handle a urllink. Something like... ppointURLfoobahPerhaps the default could be the current behaviour, but the...http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg55.html Re: Bug Report (sublists in pp2latex) by Robert Inder- March 19, 2002 >>>>> lorenz writes: > Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 11:20:46 +0100 > To: perlpointperl.org > Subject: Re: Bug Report (sublists in pp2latex) : > It works for simple lists, but you get into trouble with nested > lists, especially if the last list item is not on top level, for > example a list like > Item 1 of outer list > Item 2 of outer list > o item one of inner list > o item two of inner list (and...http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg54.html Re: Bug Report (sublists in pp2latex) by lorenz- March 19, 2002 (see attached text)Regard,Lorenzhttp://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg53.html Bug Report by Robert Inder- March 16, 2002 I&39;ve found a bug in pp2latex.The code.... =Background Blah Blah A Sublist > Foo Bar WubGenerates sectionExample beginitemize item Blay item Blah item A Sublist enditemize % Shift > beginitemize item Foo item Bar item Wub enditemizeNote that the outer "itemize" is incorrectly ended, so theinner list is not a sublist, but appears to be a continuation.I&39;ve had a quick look, and the problem looks horriblydeep inside...http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perlpoint/2002/03/msg52.html |
