I'm pleased to announce the release of pandoc 2.19,
available in the usual places:

Binary packages & changelog:
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases/tag/2.19

Source & API documentation:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/pandoc-2.19

Some notable changes:

* New --embed-resources flag, which does not imply --standalone.
--self-contained is now deprecated in favor of --embed-resources --standalone.

* Custom Lua readers and writers are now sought in the readers and writers
subdirectories of the user data directory, if not found in the working
directory.

* New input format 'tsv' (tab-separated values).

* RST, Org-mode, and Markdown readers now support row and colspans
in grid tables. (The corresponding writers do not yet support
these features.)

* EPUBv3, which previously always used MathML to render math, now
allows a choice of math methods, just like EPUBv2. (If you've
been relying on the default of producing MathML and want that
to continue, you should now add --mathml to your command line.)

* Environment variable interpolation now works in highlight-style
and pdf-engine fields in defaults files.

API changes:

* Text.Pandoc.Readers.CSV now exports `readTSV`.

* Text.Pandoc.Class: add new function findFileWithDataFallback.

* Text.Pandoc.Shared: add new function formatCode.

* Text.Pandoc.Parsing: Remove boolean parameter from gridTableWith' and
gridTableWith. We now always handle a table head if present.

For a full accounting of the many changes and bug fixes in this
release, see the changelog.
