pandoc VS ShellCheck

My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.

I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

This is one of those things that the ever-amazing pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does very well, on top of supporting virtually every other document format.

Folks feel the same way about Markdown versus LaTeX: why use something significantly more complicated where a looser, human-readable grammar works better?

For any other situations, I use https://pandoc.org/, or, generate a Word doc scriptomatically.

Congrats on the launch, I guess, but there are so many free options that I can't think of a situation where paying $0.25 per document would be justified...? Just to name a few:

Back in the days, I used to use XSL-FO [0] and it was okay. It was not very precise but it rarely if ever broke, and was perfectly integrated with an XML/XSLT solution. Yeah, this was a long time ago.

Last month I used html-to-pdfmake [1] and it's also not very precise and more fragile, but very efficient and fast.

Yet another approach would be to pro grammatically generate .rtf files (for example) and use Pandoc [2] to produce PDFs (I have not tried this in production but don't see why it wouldn't work).

Others have mentioned static site generators. I like Hakyll [1] because it can tightly integrate with Pandoc [2] and allows you to develop custom solutions if your needs ever grow.

Have you compared it with a conversion by pandoc (https://pandoc.org/)?

I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.

ncurse, dialog, zenity[2]. i/o buffering may be an issue [3a,3b]

Assuming using same account, use history command to show past commands[0a, 0b]

ShellCheck: https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck

If I want to write better shell scripts I usually run shellcheck and adjust accordingly or if I need facilities not provided by the shell i switch to a full fledged programming language. Ans oh yes, `sh` is present almost on every BSD and Linux box for free so I consider it an important thing to at least be comfortable with.

shellcheck: https://www.shellcheck.net/

When I run nix-shell at the root of the project it puts me in a Nix shell that contains, among other programs, caddy and shellcheck. Notice that in the shellHook I add the project's shell scripts to the PATH. So once I'm in the Nix shell I can, among other things:

I have also seen some projects on github like ShellCheck which first make a library, expose all the modules and then simple add that do build-depends of the final executable. Is this the recommended approach than having just one executable and adding all the modules to other-modules:?

The error checks can be pretty arcane:

Similar to for instance shellcheck to check the syntax of shell scripts, is there an equivalent for the set of roff commands typically used in a (Linux) man page? I'm aware that e.g. pandoc permits the conversion of an other format (e.g., org) to both roff man and roff ms.
