# inside <Code>

Hi.

I have this issue when convert to html

If i have a block (bash) with comments (#EOF in my case)

It convert EOF to a title :)

Can you show me a sample that causes discount to fail?

[CalebCDE]

Hi. Sure :-)

#!bin/bash
data=$(BeInput "Insert your name")
echo "Your name is" $data
#EOF

is the code

#!bin/bash data=$(BeInput “Insert your name”) echo “Your name is” $data

EOF

is the output

Uploaded a .txt file with plain text with the code and the output :-)

Alas, that's the output that's supposed to happen according to standard (John Gruber's) markdown. If you put that code into the markdown dingus that's what you'll see. What's happening is the parser is breaking the code into two paragraphs:

<code>#!bin/bash
data=$(BeInput "Insert your name")
echo "Your name is" $data

and

#EOF</code>

and then it doesn't process either as paragraphs containing code sections.

This is a behavior I cannot change while keeping discount markdown compatable, sorry :-(

Have you considered using either fenced code (if you're calling discount as a library, set the MKD_FENCEDCODE flag, and if you're using the markdown sample program giving it the argument -ffencedcode) or the traditional method of doing tab indentation?

(fenced code):

~~~~
#!bin/bash
data=$(BeInput "Insert your name")
echo "Your name is" $data
#EOF
~~~~

(tab indentation -- the <tab> markings signify either 4 space indent or a tab character)

<tab>#!bin/bash
<tab>data=$(BeInput "Insert your name")
<tab>echo "Your name is" $data
<tab>#EOF

(a fast shortcut would be to merely escape the # -- instead of typing #EOF, do \#EOF -- but it's just easier to wrap everything in a codeblock instead of needing to remember to do back and escape all the weird characters on column 0)
