Three changes.
@c now takes its content literally, like @code -- it is the inline form
and @code the block form of the same thing. The named close "c@" is
required, and characters that are special in a target no longer break
the file: @c a_b c@ renders correctly everywhere. The Markdown
converter stops quoting inline code, since nothing needs protecting.
@source_file is renamed @source_listing. Code read from a file is its
own klammer; @code is only for a block written inline (its never-
implemented :filename and :pattern options are removed). The new
:marker P option lists the region between two lines that are exactly
//P, so the source file declares its own extractable regions. A marker
missing or not appearing exactly twice is an error, never a fallback.
Rendering a document that sits in a large directory was paying a
recursive walk of that directory's whole tree on every @eval -- 27
seconds for a document that renders in a third of one. The walk is now
a non-recursive look decided once per directory.
Assembled from dev commit 071b1b183de4.

This snapshot carries sks/tns/, the translation directory, into the
distribution for the first time, together with the two default font
families its stylesheet names.
sks/tns/ holds two converters in opposite directions. md_to_sks.py
converts Markdown to Klammertext, recording what it cannot convert exactly
as "#[MD ... ]#" markers so a draft carries its own worklist. md_to_pdf.py
renders Markdown straight to PDF through a headless Chromium driven over the
DevTools Protocol, bypassing Klammertext entirely -- the route for a
document that is not ready to convert, and a permanent one for Markdown that
Klammertext cannot represent well. Neither is loaded by the SKS; md_to_pdf
needs markdown-it-py, which it keeps in a virtual environment of its own and
creates with --setup.
The everyday form of the second is the mdpdf command, a shell function in
sks/tns/mdpdf.sh that env/runtime.env sources, so anyone with the
Klammertext environment has it:
mdpdf notes.md # writes notes.pdf beside it
It supplies the house fonts, the size matching, and the code wrapping,
completes on *.md at the TAB key, and takes its defaults from MDPDF_*
variables so one can be changed in a shell profile without copying the
function. It is POSIX shell rather than zsh, since runtime.env is sourced
from bash profiles too.
Two things the stylesheet does that a print stylesheet usually cannot. Code
lines are wrapped to a column count MEASURED from the rendered page rather
than written down -- the browser is asked how many characters a code box
holds, over every box in the document, so the wrapping stays right when the
fonts, sizes or margins change. And the page number is a CSS Paged Media
margin box, which current Chromium implements, so it is set in the
document's own face instead of the browser's generic sans.
fnt/ gains EB Garamond and Source Sans 3, the serif and sans the stylesheet
asks for by default.
