  30. 30.Be able to have an internal link on a context, which will permit to write a context in narrow place like in a table's cell, this must not behave like an internal link thought, the parsing will not see the internal link, it will see it as a context node.
  31. 31.Vertical tables, which will permit better suited representation on certain data relation.

Internals

Improvements

  1. 1.Make the '(' and ')' in a link not represented (useless data).
  2. 2.Table: skip the extra cells not having column. When cell idx > column count, skip them (no fail)

Bugs

  2. 2.Some broken links are not reported as Broken. Id est https:/invalid_URL is consider
  3. 3.when a checkbox is used as the first word of a text block

Tools

  1. 1.VSCode extension for error reporting

HTML conversion

Bugs

  1. 1.Compress embedded fonts and js file
  2. 2.image zoomer
  3. 3.if a file is not present from a file_link, it will set the href with the full local path.

Features

  1. 1.dark theme
  2. 2.interactive table
  3. 3.possibility to use vector based UI

  5. 5.using toggle css class, make all the toggles open in one click.
  6. 6.advance copy by mouse selection (CTRL+C). For example, selecting a table should copy an IDK markup table, this way someone will be able to transfer it inside a IDK document very quickly.
    1. a.All selection will be translated as IDK markup when copying them which will make very readable tables, very readable footnote references and so on. With the raw text sent in parallel to the HTML, it will be easy but make it performant will not.

Improvements

  2. 2.Better discussion thread rendering.
