Synopsis
Converts ScholarlyMarkdown documents to HTML5/LaTeX/Docx format
Description

Scholdoc is a command-line utility that converts ScholarlyMarkdown documents into the HTML5, LaTeX, and Docx (OOML) formats. It is intended to facilitate academic writing in a cross-platform, semantic-aware, plaintext format that can be quickly used in modern publishing pipelines.

Scholdoc is implemented as (rather crude) fork of pandoc, and the command-line executable mostly retains the same user interface (including the custom template and filter system). It essentially understands a new input format markdown_scholarly (implemented in the markdown reader a superset of markdown_pandoc features), and limits itself to HTML5, LaTeX, and Docx output.

Unfortunately, currently Scholdoc occupies the Pandoc namespace. This is done to avoid problems when merging in fixes and changes from the core Pandoc project, and to potentially allow enhancements from Scholdoc to be contributed back to Pandoc. It is thus not recommended to use the library directly, as Scholdoc is not backwards-compatible with Pandoc, to avoid confusion.
