Markdown is currently implemented for HTML, Word, Powerpoint, RTF, LaTeX and
on-screen display. Word requires the ftExtra package.
Most formats use commonmark, with the "strikethrough" extension enabled.
The following features are intended to work:
bold and italic text
strikethrough (write ~~text~~ to strike through text).
hyperlinks
There are some quirks:
Paragraph-level properties (e.g. lists) won't work in Word.
Strikethrough will probably not work in Word.
To make lists work in LaTeX, set width() and ensure wrap() is TRUE.
Inline images in RTF work using the INCLUDEPICTURE field type.
If you try to use markdown tables within a table cell, then seek psychiatric help.
Markdown content in cells is completely separate from printing the whole
table as markdown using print_md(). When you set markdown to TRUE,
huxtable itself interprets the cell contents as markdown, and spits out HTML,
TeX or whatever.
set_markdown_contents(), a shortcut function.
