[new feature] process some directives after pandoc run

[hugoroy]

One issue I have is that I'd like to use pandoc-mode to create some custom markup allowing me to have more complex documents. So for instance, let's say I want to create a custom latex environment called “bloi”.

I would like to be able to write in markdown:

@@bloi{
> This is some *markdown* formatted text.
}

Now I'll define in ~/.emacs

   ((string= ofmt "latex")
    (format "\\begin{bloi}%s\\end{bloi}" text))

However, if I do that, I end up with

\begin{bloi}
> This is some *markdown* formatted text.
\end{bloi}

Instead of

\begin{bloi}
\begin{quote}This is some \emph{markdown} formatted text.\end{quote}
\end{bloi}

Is there some way to fix that or to allow some pandoc-mode directives to apply to the output given by pandoc rather than before the output is given to process by pandoc?

Let me know your thoughts on this :)

Thanks

Yes, I can understand you'd want to do this... Currently it's not possible to fix that, because @@-directives are run before the buffer is passed to pandoc and there's no way to change that. Perhaps what you want is possible using a pandoc filter, if you're willing and able to write one.

Of course it's technically possible to apply directives to the output of the pandoc process, and if I find some time, I'd be willing to implement that. Though I can't promise it'll be done soon.

That would be awesome.

Until then, I indeed have some custom pandoc filters so I'll try to update them. Do you also have some examples of filters of your own?

Thanks again for pandoc-mode, this is very useful.
