See the list of changes below for details. + +Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3. + +Backwards-incompatible Changes +------------------------------ + +* The "force_linenos" config setting of the CodeHilite extension has been +marked as **Deprecated**. It had previously been marked as "Pending Deprecation" +in version 2.3 when a new setting "linenums" was added to replace it. See +documentation for the [CodeHilite Extension] for an explanation of the new +"linenums" setting. The new setting will honor the old "force_linenos" if it +is set, but "force_linenos" will raise a DeprecationWarning and will likely +be removed in a future version of Python-Markdown. + +[CodeHilite Extension]: extensions/codehilite.html + +What's New in Python-Markdown 2.4 +--------------------------------- + +* Thanks to the hard work of [Dmitry Shachnev] the [Smarty Extension] has been +added, which implements [SmartyPants] using Python-Markdown's Extension API. +This offers a few benefits over a third party sript. The HTML does not need +to be "tokenized" twice, no hacks are required to combine SmartyPants and +code highlighting, and we get markdown's escaping feature for free. Please try +it out and report bugs and/or improvements. + +[Dmitry Shachnev]: https://github.com/mitya57 +[Smarty Extension]: extensions/smarty.html +[SmartyPants]: http://daringfireball.net/projects/smartypants/ + +* Various bug fixes have been made. See the +[commit log](https://github.com/waylan/Python-Markdown/commits/master) +for a complete history of the changes. |
