markup

Is it possible to convert Excel spreadsheets into MediaWiki markup? I stumpled upon strange recommendations exporting to HTML and convert it into markup. Is there a solution, maybe exporting to XML first or directly converting it? Reinstate Monica I know of three options: Install a WYSIWYG editor extension like FCKeditor (see also Official ). Advantage: fairly easy Paste As Word (and therefore also as Excel) button. Disadvantage: installation can be tricky. Use a macro in Excel . Advantage: a one-click creation of markup. Disadvantage: client-side solution (so need it for all users). My

Closed. This question is off-topic. It is not currently accepting answers. Learn more . Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Stack Overflow. Can anyone recommend a good Windows form component for displaying PDF documents and allowing users to add real annotation (by which I mean identical to that created by Adobe Reader). Update: I've tried the AxAcroPDF component which Abobe installs alongside Reader, but this doesn't support annotation. I basically want AxAcroPDF combined with Reader's "Comment & Markup Toolbar". It seems that the Foxit SDK ActiveX supports

When using the Markdown libraries I seem to get the following error: Error in 'markdown' filter: Django does not support versions of the Python markdown library < 2.1. As an example, it occurs on a tag such as: {{ticket.get_description|markdown:"safe,footnotes,tables"}} The get_description function is defined in the Ticket model. We've upgraded to Django 1.5 recently and the code was written pre Django 1.4. I've also upgraded the Markup library to 2.3.1 but the problem still persists. I've also cleared old .pyc files, just to be sure. From what I've read, the django.contrib.markup libraries

I have markup language which is similar to markdown and the one used by SO. Legacy parser was based on regexes and was complete nightmare to maintain, so I've come up with my own solution based on EBNF grammar and implemented via mxTextTools/SimpleParse. However, there are issues with some tokens which may include each other, and I don't see a 'right' way to do it. Here is part of my grammar: newline := "\r\n"/"\n"/"\r" indent := ("\r\n"/"\n"/"\r"), [ \t] number := [0-9]+ whitespace := [ \t]+ symbol_mark := [*_>#`%] symbol_mark_noa := [_>#`%] symbol_mark_nou := [*>#`%] symbol_mark_nop := [*_>#

I would like to learn the benefits of using HTML helpers in web2py instead of plain HTML markup elements. As an example, I read the following HTML markup builder code in a web2py application (reddish): {{=A(IMG(_src=URL(r=request,c='static',f='up.png')),

Is there a way to let a Link, written in githubs markdown, open in a new tab? All posts I have found related to this suggests to use HTML and target="_blank" , which is fine with me, but that doesn't work. For example this link: <a href="http://stackoverflow.com" target="_blank">Go</a> Does not open in a new tab. I'm no interested in replies for all kind of different markdown syntaxes, but only in a solution that will work when I write my markdown on github. Well it seems that the simple answer is "It's not possible". Github does not include the target attribute even if you use plain HTML, so

When I write papers or documentation it makes think using LaTeX or OpenOffice is overkill as I usually only need some markup elements (bold, headlines, lists, ...) . I'd like to write my documents using a wiki style markup as this is very efficient. For example: = Introduction = '''HTML''' is a markup language... In the end I'd like to simply convert it to PDF. (Cross-platform was nice too.) compiler.exe -pdf input.wiki output.pdf Is there a tool (or simple tool chain) to do this job? I'd personally like to not make use of LaTeX as a transformation step. There are tools doing this job
