Warning

If you are accessing this repository from another forge (such as Planète Casio's forge), keep in mind that it is only a mirror and that the real repository is located in my forge for now.

For example, if we want to translate some basic multi-block text to HTML:

from textoutpc import tohtml

text = """[img=center]https://www.planet-casio.com/skins/bootstrap/img/default/logo.png[/img]

    Hello [color=R10]world[/color]!
    [ul]
        [*]This module is made by [url=https://thomas.touhey.fr/]Thomas Touhey[/url]!
        [*]Use `.tohtml()` to translate magically to HTML!
    [/]
"""

print(tohtml(text))

What is left to do for the next release

• Fix the not-passing unit test ([color=blue]oh[youtube]h4WLX8hfpJw).
• Produce a test stylesheet for demonstration purposes.
• Manage lightscript (or even markdown?) as output languages;
• Check where the errors are to display them to the user:
  • Count character offset, line number and column number in the lexer;
  • Produce readable exceptions;
  • Make a clean interface to transmit them;
• Check why exceptions on raw tags effectively escape the content, as it shouldn't…?
• Look for security flaws (we really don't want stored XSS flaws!).
• Implement match names (such as \[\*+\] for lists).
• Manage keywords with tags such as [tag key=value other="something else"].
