Changes include: * Removed old docs build tool, templates, etc. * Added MkDocs config file, etc. * filename.txt => filename.md * pythonhost.org/Markdown => Python-Markdown.github.io * Markdown lint and other cleanup. * Automate pages deployment in makefile with `mkdocs gh-deploy` Assumes a git remote is set up named "pages". Do git remote add pages https://github.com/Python-Markdown/Python-Markdown.github.io.git ... before running `make deploy` the first time. --- docs/extensions/smarty.md | 78 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 78 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/extensions/smarty.md (limited to 'docs/extensions/smarty.md') diff --git a/docs/extensions/smarty.md b/docs/extensions/smarty.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8c0d8cc --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/extensions/smarty.md @@ -0,0 +1,78 @@ +title: SmartyPants Extension + +SmartyPants +=========== + +Summary +------- + +The SmartyPants extension converts ASCII dashes, quotes and ellipses to +their HTML entity equivalents. + +ASCII symbol | Replacements | HTML Entities | Substitution Keys +------------ | --------------- | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------- +`'` | ‘ ’ | `‘` `’` | `'left-single-quote'`, `'right-single-quote'` +`"` | “ ” | `“` `”` | `'left-double-quote'`, `'right-double-quote'` +`<< >>` | « » | `«` `»` | `'left-angle-quote'`, `'right-angle-quote'` +`...` | … | `…` | `'ellipsis'` +`--` | – | `–` | `'ndash'` +`---` | — | `—` | `'mdash'` + +Using the configuration option 'substitutions' you can overwrite the +default substitutions.
