language-pfm

Pandoc flavored Markdown package

Adds syntax highlighting and snippets to Pandoc flavored Markdown files in Atom. This was forked from atoms language-gfm. The goal is to maintain compatibility with the Github Flavored Markdown package while adding as much pandoc functionality as possible.

Setting language-pfm as default

• Disable language-gfm, all .md files will be highlighted using this package.
• Or rename pandoc flavored markdown files to .p.md or .pmd

Supported Pandoc Features

This package supports a lot of pandoc features. Here are the highlights:

• Math highlighting $...$ and \(...\) and block $$...$$ and \[...\] (copied from language-latex)
• Definition Lists & fancy lists
• Raw HTML with inline markdown
• Footnotes & Inline-Footnotes
• Citations
• ... many more

There are some quirks, but these should not affect your daily work to much.

Works great with other pandoc related packages

• Autocomplete Bibtex brings citation autocompletion
• Pen Paper Coffee is a good looking theme for markdown editing
• Markdown Preview Plus is a wonderful markdown preview with Mathjax support, hopefully able to work with pandoc natively soon: [#41]
