pandoc

I write documentation in markdown using ViM and I also put math using the latex $$ symbol (I compile using pandoc). The thing is that ViM syntax wouldn't ignore the underscores _ inside the dollar symbols and it is pretty annoying. For instance if I write this: $$ a_1 = 0 $$ Then Vim will highlight all the following text as italics due to to the underscore used. How can I change that? Also it would be nice if I could highlight what's inside $ with a different format. I have put these lines in my .vimrc. It works for inline math on the same line and block-mode math. " This gets rid of the nasty

When an Rnw file is converted to PDF with RStudio and knitr , the code blocks have a pleasant grey background colour (like they do here at SO). When I convert a md file to PDF , the background colour is white and I can't seem to change it. The knitr code decoration option background is only for LaTeX and has no effect in md . How can I set a background colour for code blocks in the PDF I get from my md file? I see in some related questions that editing the markdown.css file might be relevant, but I'm not sure if that applies here since there's no html file in between the md and PDF files. This

I am trying to use a Pandoc filter to convert a markdown file with a tikz picture to html. I am on Win 8.1 (and I have all the dependencies -- pdflatex, Python 2.7, ImageMagick, and the pandocfilters Python package). I am using the tikz.py script that John MacFarlane provides on github . I found a similar question on the Pandoc Google Group and John MacFarlane suggests wrapping the filter in a Windows batch script (the filter must be an executable). Here is my command line input (I'll provide the file contents below). pandoc -o temp.html --filter .\tikz.bat -s temp.md But I keep getting the

In rmarkdown PDF and HTML I want two bibliographies —one for papers/books, and one for software I have used in my research. I found this related issue but it doesn't answer my question since it's concerning the combination of two *.bib files into one bibliography. I'm used to place my bibliography with <div id="refs"></div> as explained here . Possibly a second one can be placed similarly with <div id="refs_2"></div> , but I couldn't figure out how to do it since this "refs" seems not to be defined anywhere. I usually define the software in the YAML header like this nocite: | @xie_knitr:_2018,

I am using the RStudio, knitr, pandoc, MS Word combo to get my final results in a docx document. Occasionally, I would like the report to continue on a new page. I can't find the way to achieve this. From what I have Googled, it seems to be possible with CSS . I don't know HTML or CSS , but if it is the solution I will learn. Just don't want to take the wrong road... Try the LaTeX command \newpage. Pandoc recognizes it and might (not on a computer right now) translate it to a Word page break. ​```{=openxml} <w:p> </w:pPr> <w:r> <w:br w:type="page"/> </w:r> </w:p> ​``` Insert this codes in the
