Hi,
How would I do the following formatting: some of my words deliberatly end with single underscores: but I would the whole word to be emphasized: Here is an example of my text: the expr parser parses expressions, while the expr_ parser is its white space aware counterpart. Now I want both: expr and expr_ to be emphasized. die html I want is <em>expr<em> ... <em>expr_<em> while I found out that I can achieve that effect with pass:[<em>expr_</em>] this works only for the html rendering, the pdf is broken, I guess one can use some kind of function somewhere, that does distinguish between html and pdf rendering (pointers? - have never used that before). ideally I'd have something very short, like so _expr_ ... em:[expr_] that works for both html and pdf, as I write not only about expression parsers, but also about decls, and much more stuff in this manner. Thanks in advance, and please bear with me: I am relatively new to asciidoctor. -Andreas |

Have you tried it yet? In my tests, it works out just fine. The following AsciiDoc: ---- the _expr_ parser parses expressions, while the _expr__ parser is its white space aware counterpart. ---- produces the following HTML (abbreviated): ---- <p>the <em>expr</em> parser parses expressions, while the <em>expr_</em> parser is its white space aware counterpart.</p> ---- Btw, if you wanted to use the pass macro (just to be sure) you'd type it as: _pass:[expr_]_ That will work in both HTML and PDF. It's best to avoid putting HTML directly in your AsciiDoc. Cheers, -Dan On Thu, Aug 6, 2015 at 1:21 AM, Andreas Reuleaux [via Asciidoctor :: Discussion] <[hidden email]> wrote: Hi, ...

Well, thanks a lot, first of all.
Hm, yes, I have tried: _expr__ - worked for me sometimes, but not reliably, ie. depending on wheter it was followed by a comma eg. ... expr_, ... wheter there were other emphasis starting later on the same line etc. - Don't have a very clear picture at present, what circumstances exactly caused it two break, but will give it another shot maybe. Other variations that I tried with some kind of \ - escaping didn't work out well either, sometimes I got something close <em>expr<em>_ but not exactly what I wanted: the underscore within the em (even if this distinction was barely visible). Anyway thanks a lot, with your _pass:[expr_]_ I am now on the safe side: can use _expr__ when it works, and otherwise resort to _pass:[expr_]_ Thanks again, -Andreas "mojavelinux [via Asciidoctor :: Discussion]" <[hidden email]> writes: > Have you tried it yet?

Ah well, that makes sense, yes.
And thanks for your advice as well, to just break longer lines in pieces that contain at most one such expr_ thing. -Andreas "jvdh [via Asciidoctor :: Discussion]" <[hidden email]> writes: > On Thu, 06 Aug 2015 09:21:31 +0200, Andreas Reuleaux [via Asciidoctor :: > Discussion] <[hidden email]> wrote: > > it seems there is no problem in the first place, no? actually > > "here is some _text__ containing a word with trailing underscore" > > renders just as expected (note that `text' is preceded by a single, and > followed by two underscores). problems only arise if there is more than > one emphasized word > in a single input line (because sucessive pairs of `_' are interpreted as > bracketing the to-be-emphazised text). actually, that's exactly what is > happening in your example....

It was working fine in this particular case. what circumstances exactly caused it two break, The problem is that double underscore has precedence over single underscore and since you've created that sequence, if you have two of them in a paragraph, you start to run into ambiguity. These are the types of problems we believe will be solved (at least most of them) when we move to formal parser solution instead of regexp for inline parsing (see https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/61). However, keep in mind there will always be some edge cases as that is the trade-off for having lightweight markup. But that's where the passthrough functionality comes into play. Other variations that I tried with some kind of \ - escaping didn't work out well either, At the moment, Asciidoctor is very lazy about handling of backslashes (in favor of speed). This traces back to the regex approach for inline parsing (see https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/901). It's difficult to handle all but the simple cases in this way...so I think the passthrough is a better approach for now. with your _pass:[expr_]_ I am now on the safe side: can use _expr__ when it works, and otherwise resort to _pass:[expr_]_ +1 Cheers, |
