MMD 4.0b Installers Available

05/01/2013 15:28:33

An installer is now available for MMD 4.0b. The Mac installer is for newer machine/OS combinations. The “legacy” build for older Mac machines (e.g. PPC hardware, older OS versions) is not available yet. This gets harder and harder for me to compile since my normal machine/OS combinations won’t compile this far back. You should be able to compile from source for older hardware if you still have it around, however.

• MMD 4.0b Mac Installer
• MMD 4.0b Mac Support Installer
• MMD 4.0b Windows Installer
• MMD 4.0b Windows Portable Package

A few of the command-line features from MMD 3 have not been implemented yet (see the --help or -h command-line option). Otherwise, things should generally work as they did in MMD 3.7, with a couple of fixes and improvements.

I tried MMD4 but I run into some problems with LaTeX beamer.

If this is my plain text for a beamer frame:

### My title

my content

MMD3 would give:

\begin{frame}

\frametitle{My title}

\label{mytitle}

my content

\end{frame}

MMD4 gives

\section{My title}

\label{mytitle}

my content

\end{document}

I am sure there is an easy solution, but I don’t know how.

When I run your example through MMD 4 I get the result you describe for MMD 3.

What you describe for MMD 4 is the expected result for LaTeX.  Be sure that you are specifying `-t beamer` instead of `-t latex` and you should get the proper result.

Thanks. I run my conversion from MMD to (beamer) LaTeX with the use of this Applescript:

on translate_line_breaks(str)

    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {ASCII character 13}

    set _lines to every text item of str

    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {ASCII character 10}

    set str to _lines as text

    set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {}

    return str

end translate_line_breaks

set my_text to the clipboard

(* Add beamer metadata *)

set my_text to "base header level:  1  " & return & "LaTeX Mode:         beamer  " & return & "LaTeX XSLT:         beamer  " & return & return & my_text

-- 2013-05-02 MMD3: set markdownloc to "/usr/local/bin/mmd2tex"

-- 2013-05-02 MMD4: 

set markdownloc to "/Users/whrose/Library/Application\\ Support/MultiMarkdown/bin/mmd2LaTeX.pl"

set my_text to translate_line_breaks(my_text)

set _output to do shell script "echo " & the quoted form of my_text & " | " & markdownloc

set the clipboard to _output

Where do I add the -t beamer bit?

Why did you change from "/usr/local/bin/mmd2tex" to "/Users/whrose/Library/Application\\ Support/MultiMarkdown/bin/mmd2LaTeX.pl"?
