Output to Rd about commonmark

[jeroen]

Can you give an example of what the conversion you have in mind? Rd requires a specific structure with \title{}, \description{}, \details{}, etc. What would this look like in markdown?

[hadley]

I was thinking just for inline rd, like stuff you'd put in the details etc.

[jeroen]

OK. I guess if we can map out how the markdown types (p, h1-h5, ol, ul, code, etc) are represented in Rdoc then it shouldn't be too difficult to write a converter.

[hadley]

Yeah, I think it's mostly those (and maybe not even headings), strong and emph, definition lists (if that's in commonmark, can't remember), code blocks (-> preformatted) and tables.

Oh, I just saw this. I guess this is exactly what maxygen does.
