pandoc Obsidian vimwiki tags vimwiki_tags

• Journal 2024-01-20
• Pandoc User's Guide Pandoc's Markdown
• Obsidian does not parse:
  • header_attributes
  • Wiki links converted to CommonMark links, so +wikilinks_title_after_pipe, since it supports Wiki links directly.
  • Tags converted to CommonMark attributes are not recognized. sed can convert to #tag format.

    TXTDIR=$(HOME)/userprofile/Documents/vimwiki_html/md
    WIKIS=$(wildcard *.wiki diary/*.wiki)
    MDS=$(patsubst %.wiki,$(TXTDIR)/%.md, $(WIKIS))
    
    .PHONY : all
    
    all : $(MDS)
    
    .PHONY : clean
    
    clean : $(MDS)
    	rm "$<"
    
    $(TXTDIR)/%.md : %.wiki

• Pandoc cannot distinguish html and md file extensions.
