Thanks to [Martin Altmayer] for implementing this + feature. + +[Smarty Extension]: ../extensions/smarty.md +[Martin Altmayer]:https://github.com/MartinAltmayer + +* Named Extensions (strings passed to the [`extensions`][ex] keyword of + `markdown.Markdown`) can now point to any module and/or Class on your + PYTHONPATH. While dot notation was previously supported, a module could not + be at the root of your PYTHONPATH. The name had to contain at least one dot + (requiring it to be a sub-module). This restriction no longer exists. + + Additionally, a Class may be specified in the name. The class must be at the + end of the name (which uses dot notation from PYTHONPATH) and be separated + by a colon from the module. + + Therefore, if you were to import the class like this: + + from path.to.module import SomeExtensionClass + + Then the named extension would comprise this string: + + "path.to.module:SomeExtensionClass" + + This allows multiple extensions to be implemented within the same module and + still accessible when the user is not able to import the extension directly + (perhaps from a template filter or the command line). + + This also means that extension modules are no longer required to include the + `makeExtension` function which returns an instance of the extension class. + However, if the user does not specify the class name (she only provides + `"path.to.module"`) the extension will fail to load without the + `makeExtension` function included in the module. Extension authors will want + to document carefully what is required to load their extensions. + +[ex]: ../reference.md#extensions + +* The Extension Configuration code has been refactored to make it a little + easier for extension authors to work with configuration settings. As a + result, the [`extension_configs`][ec] keyword now accepts a dictionary + rather than requiring a list of tuples. A list of tuples is still supported + so no one needs to change their existing code. This should also simplify the + learning curve for new users. + + Extension authors are encouraged to review the new methods available on the + `markdown.extnesions.Extension` class for handling configuration and adjust + their code going forward. The included extensions provide a model for best + practices. See the [API] documentation for a full explanation. + +[ec]: ../reference.md#extension_configs +[API]: ../extensions/api.md#configsettings + +* The [Command Line Interface][cli] now accepts a `--extensions_config` (or + `-c`) option which accepts a file name and passes the parsed content of a + [YAML] or [JSON] file to the [`extension_configs`][ec] keyword of the + `markdown.Markdown` class. The contents of the YAML or JSON must map to a + Python Dictionary which matches the format required by the + `extension_configs` keyword. Note that [PyYAML] is required to parse YAML + files. + +[cli]: ../cli.md#using-extensions +[YAML]: http://yaml.org/ +[JSON]: http://json.org/ +[PyYAML]: http://pyyaml.org/ + +* The [Admonition Extension][ae] is no longer considered "experimental." + +[ae]: ../extensions/admonition.md + +* There have been various refactors of the testing framework.

See the list of changes below for details. + +Python-Markdown version 2.6 supports Python versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 as +well as PyPy. + +## Backwards-incompatible Changes + +### `safe_mode` Deprecated + +Both `safe_mode` and the associated `html_replacement_text` keywords are +deprecated in version 2.6 and will raise a **`DeprecationWarning`**. The +`safe_mode` and `html_replacement_text` keywords will be ignored in the next +release. The so-called "safe mode" was never actually "safe" which has resulted +in many people having a false sense of security when using it. As an +alternative, the developers of Python-Markdown recommend that any untrusted +content be passed through an HTML sanitizer (like [Bleach]) after being +converted to HTML by markdown.

Only keyword arguments should be used. For example, +if your code previously looked like this: + +```python +html = markdown.markdown(text, [SomeExtension()]) +``` + +Then it is recommended that you change it to read something like this: + +```python +html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[SomeExtension()]) +``` + +!!!

Additionally, +third party extensions whose name started with `"mdx_"` received the same +special treatment. This behavior is deprecated and will raise a +**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in the next release. Ensure +that you always use the full path to your extensions. For example, if you +previously did the following: + +```python +markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra']) +``` + +You should change your code to the following: + +```python +markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['markdown.extensions.extra']) +``` + +The same applies to the command line: + +```python +python -m markdown -x markdown.extensions.extra input.txt +``` + +Similarly, if you have used a third party extension (for example `mdx_math`), +previously you might have called it like this: + +```python +markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['math']) +``` + +As the `"mdx"` prefix will no longer be appended, you will need to change your +code as follows (assuming the file `mdx_math.py` is installed at the root of +your PYTHONPATH): + +```python +markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['mdx_math']) +``` + +Extension authors will want to update their documentation to reflect the new +behavior. + +See the [documentation](../reference.md#extensions) for a full explanation +of the current behavior. + +### Extension Configuration as Part of Extension Name Deprecated + +The previously documented method of appending the extension configuration +options as a string to the extension name is deprecated and will raise a +**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in 2.7. The +[`extension_configs`](../reference.md#extension_configs) keyword should be used +instead. See the [documentation](../reference.md#extension-configs) for a full +explanation of the current behavior. + +### HeaderId Extension Pending Deprecation + +The [HeaderId][hid] Extension is pending deprecation and will raise a +**`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6. The extension will be deprecated +in the next release and raise an error in the release after that. Use the [Table +of Contents][TOC] Extension instead, which offers most of the features of the +HeaderId Extension and more (support for meta data is missing). + +Extension authors who have been using the `slugify` and `unique` functions +defined in the HeaderId Extension should note that those functions are now +defined in the Table of Contents extension and should adjust their import +statements accordingly (`from markdown.extensions.toc import slugify, unique`). + +[hid]: ../extensions/header_id.md + +### The `configs` Keyword is Deprecated + +Positional arguments and the `configs` keyword on the +`markdown.extension.Extension` class (and its subclasses) are deprecated. Each +individual configuration option should be passed to the class as a keyword/value +pair. For example. one might have previously initiated an extension subclass +like this: + +```python +ext = SomeExtension(configs={'somekey': 'somevalue'}) +``` + +That code should be updated to pass in the options directly: + +```python +ext = SomeExtension(somekey='somevalue') +``` + +Extension authors will want to note that this affects the `makeExtension` +function as well. Previously it was common for the function to be defined as +follows: + +```python +def makeExtension(configs=None): + return SomeExtension(configs=configs) +``` + +Extension authors will want to update their code to the following instead: + +```python +def makeExtension(**kwargs): + return SomeExtension(**kwargs) +``` + +Failing to do so will result in a **`DeprecationWarning`** and will raise an +error in the next release. See the [Extension API][mext] documentation for more +information. + +In the event that an `markdown.extension.Extension` subclass overrides the +`__init__` method and implements its own configuration handling, then the above +may not apply. However, it is recommended that the subclass still calls the +parent `__init__` method to handle configuration options like so: + +```python +class SomeExtension(markdown.extension.Extension): + def __init__(**kwargs): + # Do pre-config stuff here + # Set config defaults + self.config = { + 'option1' : ['value1', 'description1'], + 'option2' : ['value2', 'description2'] + } + # Set user defined configs + super(MyExtension, self).__init__(**kwargs) + # Do post-config stuff here +``` + +Note the call to `super` to get the benefits of configuration handling from the +parent class. See the [documentation][config] for more information. + +[config]: ../extensions/api.md#configsettings +[mext]: ../extensions/api.md#makeextension + +## What's New in Python-Markdown 2.6 + +### Official Support for PyPy + +Official support for [PyPy] has been added. While Python-Markdown has most +likely worked on PyPy for some time, it is now officially supported and tested +on PyPy. + +[PyPy]: http://pypy.org/ + +### YAML Style Meta-Data + +The [Meta-Data] Extension now includes optional support for [YAML] style +meta-data. By default, the YAML deliminators are recognized, however, the +actual data is parsed as previously. This follows the syntax of [MultiMarkdown], +which inspired this extension. + +Alternatively, if the `yaml` option is set, then the data is parsed as +YAML. As the `yaml` option was buggy, it was removed in 2.6.1. It is +suggested that a preprocessor (like [docdata]) or a third party extension be +used if you want true YAML support. See [Issue #390][#390] for a full +explanation. + +[MultiMarkdown]: http://fletcherpenney.net/MultiMarkdown_Syntax_Guide#metadata +[Meta-Data]: ../extensions/meta_data.md +[YAML]: http://yaml.org/ +[#390]: https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/issues/390 +[docdata]: https://github.com/waylan/docdata + +### Table of Contents Extension Refactored + +The [Table of Contents][TOC] Extension has been refactored and some new features +have been added. See the documentation for a full explanation of each feature +listed below: + +* The extension now assigns the Table of Contents to the `toc` attribute of + the Markdown class regardless of whether a "marker" was found in the + document. Third party frameworks no longer need to insert a "marker," run + the document through Markdown, then extract the Table of Contents from the + document. + +* The Table of Contents Extension is now a "registered extension." Therefore, + when the `reset` method of the Markdown class is called, the `toc` attribute + on the Markdown class is cleared (set to an empty string). + +* When the `marker` configuration option is set to an empty string, the parser + completely skips the process of searching the document for markers. This + should save parsing time when the Table of Contents Extension is being used + only to assign ids to headers. + +* A `separator` configuration option has been added allowing users to override + the separator character used by the slugify function. + +* A `baselevel` configuration option has been added allowing users to set the + base level of headers in their documents (h1-h6). This allows the header + levels to be automatically adjusted to fit within the hierarchy of an HTML + template. + +[TOC]: ../extensions/toc.md + +### Pygments can now be disabled + +The [CodeHilite][ch] Extension has gained a new configuration option: +`use_pygments`. The option is `True` by default, however, it allows one to turn +off Pygments code highlighting (set to `False`) while preserving the language +detection features of the extension. Note that Pygments language guessing is not +used as that would 'use Pygments'. If a language is defined for a code block, it +will be assigned to the `` tag as a class in the manner suggested by the +[HTML5 spec][spec] (alternate output will not be entertained) and could +potentially be used by a JavaScript library in the browser to highlight the code +block. + +[ch]: ../extensions/code_hilite.md +[spec]: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/text-level-semantics.html#the-code-element + +### Miscellaneous + +Test coverage has been improved including running [flake8].

-Using Markdown as a Python Library
-==================================
+# Using Markdown as a Python Library
 
 First and foremost, Python-Markdown is intended to be a python library module
 used by various projects to convert Markdown syntax into HTML.
 
-The Basics
-----------
+## The Basics
 
 To use markdown as a module:
 
-    import markdown
-    html = markdown.markdown(your_text_string)
+```python
+import markdown
+html = markdown.markdown(your_text_string)
+```
 
-The Details
------------
+## The Details
 
 Python-Markdown provides two public functions ([`markdown.markdown`](#markdown)
-and [`markdown.markdownFromFile`](#markdownFromFile)) both of which wrap the 
-public class [`markdown.Markdown`](#Markdown). If you're processing one 
+and [`markdown.markdownFromFile`](#markdownFromFile)) both of which wrap the

 document at a time, these functions will serve your needs. However, if you need

+to process multiple documents, it may be advantageous to create a single
+instance of the `markdown.Markdown` class and pass multiple documents through
 it. If you do use a single instance though, make sure to call the `reset`
 method appropriately ([see below](#convert)).
 
-### `markdown.markdown (text [, **kwargs])` {: #markdown }
+### markdown.markdown(text [, **kwargs]) {: #markdown }
 
 The following options are available on the `markdown.markdown` function:
 
-* __`text`__{: #text } (required): The source Unicode string.
+__text__{: #text }
+

     !!! note "Important"
         Python-Markdown expects **Unicode** as input (although
         some simple ASCII strings *may* work) and returns output as Unicode.

+        Do not pass encoded strings to it! If your input is encoded, (e.g. as
         UTF-8), it is your responsibility to decode it.  For example:

             input_file = codecs.open("some_file.txt", mode="r", encoding="utf-8")
             text = input_file.read()
             html = markdown.markdown(text)
 
         If you want to write the output to disk, you *must* encode it yourself:
 
-            output_file = codecs.open("some_file.html", "w", 
-                                      encoding="utf-8",

                                       errors="xmlcharrefreplace"
             )
             output_file.write(html)

-Python-Markdown 2.0.1 is a bug-fix release. No new features have been added.
-Most notably, various issues with the command line script have been fixed.
-There have also been a few fixes for minor parsing bugs in some edge cases.
-For a full list of changes, see the git log.
-
-Backwards-incompatible Changes
-------------------------------
-
-Due to various complications in how Python handles command line scripts in 
-difference systems and with different installation tools, we were forced to 
-rename the command line script to `markdown` (no `.py`). A matching batch
-script will get installed on Windows. Any shell scripts which call 
-`markdown.py` will need to be altered to call `markdown` instead.

-Python-Markdown 2.2.1 Release Notes
-===================================
-
-Python-Markdown 2.2.1 is a bug-fix release. No new features have been added.
-However, at least one bug fix does not work in Python 2.4 so that version of
-Python is no longer supported. For a full list of changes, see the git log.

-Python-Markdown 2.3 Release Notes
-=================================
-
-We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.3 which adds one new extension,
-removes a few old (obsolete) extensions, and now runs on both Python 2 and 
-Python 3 without running the 2to3 conversion tool. See the list of changes 
-below for details.
-
-Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3.
-
-Backwards-incompatible Changes
-------------------------------
-
-* Support has been dropped for Python 2.5. No guarantees are made that the
-library will work in any version of Python lower than 2.6. As all supported
-Python versions include the ElementTree library, Python-Markdown will no 
-longer try to import a third-party installation of ElementTree.
-
-* All classes are now "new-style" classes. In other words, all classes
-subclass from 'object'. While this is not likely to affect most users, 
-extension authors may need to make a few minor adjustments to their code.
-
-* "safe_mode" has been further restricted. Markdown formatted links must be
-of a known white-listed scheme when in "safe_mode" or the URL is discarded.
-The white-listed schemes are: 'HTTP', 'HTTPS', 'FTP', 'FTPS', 'MAILTO', and
-'news'. Schemeless URLs are also permitted, but are checked in other ways - 
-as they have been for some time.
-
-* The ids assigned to footnotes now contain a dash (`-`) rather than a colon
-(`:`) when `output_format` it set to `"html5"` or `"xhtml5"`. If you are making
-reference to those ids in your JavaScript or CSS and using the HTML5 output,
-you will need to update your code accordingly. No changes are necessary if
-you are outputting XHTML (the default) or HTML4.
-
-* The `force_linenos` configuration setting of the CodeHilite extension has been
-marked as **Pending Deprecation** and a new setting `linenums` has been added to
-replace it. See documentation for the [CodeHilite Extension] for an explanation
-of the new `linenums` setting. The new setting will honor the old 
-`force_linenos` if it is set, but it will raise a `PendingDeprecationWarning` 
-and will likely be removed in a future version of Python-Markdown.
-
-[CodeHilite Extension]: extensions/codehilite.html
-
-* The "RSS" extension has been removed and no longer ships with Python-Markdown.
-If you would like to continue using the extension (not recommended), it is 
-archived on [GitHub](https://gist.github.com/waylan/4773365).
-
-* The "HTML Tidy" Extension has been removed and no longer ships with Python-Markdown.
-If you would like to continue using the extension (not recommended), it is 
-archived on [GitHub](https://gist.github.com/waylan/5152650). Note that the 
-underlying library, uTidylib, is not Python 3 compatible. Instead, it is 
-recommended that the newer [PyTidyLib] (version 0.2.2+ for Python 3 
-comparability - install from GitHub not PyPI) be used. As the API for that 
-library is rather simple, it is recommended that the output of Markdown be 
-wrapped in a call to PyTidyLib rather than using an extension (for example: 
-`tidylib.tidy_fragment(markdown.markdown(source), options={...})`).
-
-[PyTidyLib]: http://countergram.com/open-source/pytidylib
-
-What's New in Python-Markdown 2.3
----------------------------------
-
-* The entire code base now universally runs in Python 2 and Python 3 without
-any need for running the 2to3 conversion tool. This not only simplifies testing,
-but by using Unicode_literals, results in more consistent behavior across
-Python versions. Additionally, the relative imports (made possible in Python 2
-via absolute_import) allows the entire library to more easily be embedded in a 
-sub-directory of another project. The various files within the library will 
-still import each other properly even though 'markdown' may not be in Python's
-root namespace.
-
-* The [Admonition Extension] has been added, which implements [rST-style][rST] 
-admonitions in the Markdown syntax. However, be warned that this extension 
-is experimental and the syntax and behavior is still subject to change. Please 
-try it out and report bugs and/or improvements.
-
-[Admonition Extension]: extensions/admonition.html
-[rST]: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/directives.html#specific-admonitions
-
-* Various bug fixes have been made.  See the
-[commit log](https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/commits/master)
-for a complete history of the changes.

-Python-Markdown 2.4 Release Notes
-=================================
-
-We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.4 which adds one new extension
-and fixes various bugs. See the list of changes below for details.
-
-Python-Markdown supports Python versions 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3.
-
-Backwards-incompatible Changes
-------------------------------
-
-* The `force_linenos` configuration setting of the CodeHilite extension has been
-marked as **Deprecated**. It had previously been marked as "Pending Deprecation"
-in version 2.3 when a new setting `linenums` was added to replace it. See 
-documentation for the [CodeHilite Extension] for an explanation of the new 
-`linenums` setting. The new setting will honor the old `force_linenos` if it 
-is set, but `force_linenos` will raise a `DeprecationWarning` and will likely 
-be removed in a future version of Python-Markdown.
-
-[CodeHilite Extension]: extensions/code_hilite.html
-
-* URLs are no longer percent-encoded. This improves compatibility with the
-original (written in Perl) Markdown implementation. Please percent-encode
-your URLs manually when needed.
-
-What's New in Python-Markdown 2.4
----------------------------------
-
-* Thanks to the hard work of [Dmitry Shachnev] the [Smarty Extension] has been 
-added, which implements [SmartyPants] using Python-Markdown's Extension API. 
-This offers a few benefits over a third party script. The HTML does not need
-to be "tokenized" twice, no hacks are required to combine SmartyPants and
-code highlighting, and we get markdown's escaping feature for free. Please try 
-it out and report bugs and/or improvements.
-
-[Dmitry Shachnev]: https://github.com/mitya57
-[Smarty Extension]: extensions/smarty.html
-[SmartyPants]: http://daringfireball.net/projects/smartypants/
-
-* The [Table of Contents Extension] now supports new `permalink` option
-for creating [Sphinx]-style anchor links.
-
-[Table of Contents Extension]: extensions/toc.html
-[Sphinx]: http://sphinx-doc.org/
-
-* It is now possible to enable Markdown formatting inside HTML blocks by
-appending `markdown=1` to opening tag attributes. See [Markdown Inside HTML
-Blocks] section for details. Thanks to [ryneeverett] for implementing this
-feature.
-
-[Markdown Inside HTML Blocks]: extensions/extra.html#nested-markdown-inside-html-blocks
-[ryneeverett]: https://github.com/ryneeverett
-
-* The code blocks now support emphasizing some of the code lines. To use this
-feature, specify `hl_lines` option after language name, for example (using
-the [Fenced Code Extension]):
-
-        ```.python hl_lines="1 3"
-        # This line will be emphasized.
-        # This one won't.
-        # This one will be also emphasized.

-Python-Markdown 2.5 Release Notes
-=================================
-
-We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.5 which adds a few new features
-and fixes various bugs. See the list of changes below for details.
-
-Python-Markdown version 2.5 supports Python versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4.
-
-Backwards-incompatible Changes
-------------------------------
-
-* Python-Markdown no longer supports Python version 2.6. You must be using Python 
-  versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4.
-
-[importlib]: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/importlib
-
-* The `force_linenos` configuration key on the [CodeHilite Extension] has been **deprecated**
-  and will raise a `KeyError` if provided. In the previous release (2.4), it was 
-  issuing a `DeprecationWarning`. The [`linenums`][linenums] keyword should be used 
-  instead, which provides more control of the output.
-
-[CodeHilite Extension]: extensions/code_hilite.html
-[linenums]: extensions/code_hilite.html#usage
-
-* Both `safe_mode` and the associated `html_replacement_text` keywords will be deprecated 
-  in version 2.6 and will raise a **`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in 2.5. The so-called
-  "safe mode" was never actually "safe" which has resulted in many people having a false 
-  sense of security when using it. As an alternative, the developers of Python-Markdown 
-  recommend that any untrusted content be passed through an HTML sanitizer (like [Bleach])
-  after being converted to HTML by markdown.
-
-    If your code previously looked like this:
-
-	    html = markdown.markdown(text, same_mode=True)
-
-	Then it is recommended that you change your code to read something like this:
-
-	    import bleach
-        html = bleach.clean(markdown.markdown(text))
-
-	If you are not interested in sanitizing untrusted text, but simply desire to escape
-	raw HTML, then that can be accomplished through an extension which removes HTML parsing:
-
-		from markdown.extensions import Extension
-
-		class EscapeHtml(Extension):
-			def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals):
-				del md.preprocessors['html_block']
-				del md.inlinePatterns['html']
-
-		html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[EscapeHtml()])
-
-	As the HTML would not be parsed with the above Extension, then the serializer will
-	escape the raw HTML, which is exactly what happens now when `safe_mode="escape"`.
-
-[Bleach]: https://bleach.readthedocs.io/
-
-* Positional arguments on the `markdown.Markdown()` are pending deprecation as are
-  all except the `text` argument on the `markdown.markdown()` wrapper function.
-  Only keyword arguments should be used. For example, if your code previously
-  looked like this:
-
-         html = markdown.markdown(text, ['extra'])
-    
-	Then it is recommended that you change it to read something like this:
-
-	    html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])
-
-	!!! Note
-	    This change is being made as a result of deprecating `"safe_mode"` as the 
-		`safe_mode` argument was one of the positional arguments. When that argument 
-		is removed, the two arguments following it will no longer be at the correct 
-		position. It is recommended that you always use keywords when they are supported
-		for this reason.
-
-* In previous versions of Python-Markdown, the built-in extensions received
-  special status and did not require the full path to be provided. Additionally,
-  third party extensions whose name started with `"mdx_"` received the same 
-  special treatment. This behavior will be deprecated in version 2.6 and will
-  raise a **`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in 2.5. Ensure that you always use the full 
-  path to your extensions. For example, if you previously did the following:
-
-        markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])
-
-    You should change your code to the following:
-
-	    markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['markdown.extensions.extra'])
-
-    The same applies to the command line:
-
-        $ python -m markdown -x markdown.extensions.extra input.txt
-
-    See the [documentation](reference.html#extensions) for a full explanation
-    of the current behavior.
-
-* The previously documented method of appending the extension configuration as 
-  a string to the extension name will be deprecated in Python-Markdown 
-  version 2.6 and will raise a **`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in 2.5. The 
-  [`extension_configs`](reference.html#extension_configs) keyword should 
-  be used instead. See the [documentation](reference.html#extension-configs) 
-  for a full explanation of the current behavior.
-
-What's New in Python-Markdown 2.5
----------------------------------
-
-*   The [Smarty Extension] has had a number of additional configuration settings
-    added, which allows one to define their own substitutions to better support
-    languages other than English. Thanks to [Martin Altmayer] for implementing this 
-	feature.
-
-[Smarty Extension]: extensions/smarty.html
-[Martin Altmayer]:https://github.com/MartinAltmayer
-
-*   Named Extensions (strings passed to the [`extensions`][ex] keyword of 
-    `markdown.Markdown`) can now point to any module and/or Class on your PYTHONPATH. 
-	While dot notation was previously supported, a module could not be at the root of 
-	your PYTHONPATH. The name had to contain at least one dot (requiring it to be a 
-	sub-module). This restriction no longer exists. 
-
-	Additionally, a Class may be specified in the name. The class must be at the end of 
-	the name (which uses dot notation from PYTHONPATH) and be separated by a colon from 
-	the module. 
-
-	Therefore, if you were to import the class like this:
-	
-		from path.to.module import SomeExtensionClass
-
-	Then the named extension would comprise this string:
-
-		"path.to.module:SomeExtensionClass"
-	
-	This allows multiple extensions to be implemented within the same module and still 
-	accessible when the user is not able to import the extension directly (perhaps from 
-	a template filter or the command line).
-
-	This also means that extension modules are no longer required to include the 
-	`makeExtension`	function which returns an instance of the extension class. However, 
-	if the user does not specify the class name (she only provides `"path.to.module"`)
-	the extension will fail to load without the `makeExtension` function included in
-	the module. Extension authors will want to document carefully what is required to
-	load their extensions.
-
-[ex]: reference.html#extensions
-
-*   The Extension Configuration code has been refactored to make it a little easier 
-    for extension authors to work with configuration settings. As a result, the 
-    [`extension_configs`][ec] keyword now accepts a dictionary rather than requiring 
-    a list of tuples. A list of tuples is still supported so no one needs to change 
-    their existing code. This should also simplify the learning curve for new users.
-
-	Extension authors are encouraged to review the new methods available on the 
-	`markdown.extnesions.Extension` class for handling configuration and adjust their
-	code going forward. The included extensions provide a model for best practices.
-	See the [API] documentation for a full explanation.
-
-[ec]: reference.html#extension_configs
-[API]: extensions/api.html#configsettings
-
-*   The [Command Line Interface][cli] now accepts a `--extensions_config` (or `-c`) 
-    option which accepts a file name and passes the parsed content of a [YAML] or 
-	[JSON]   file to the [`extension_configs`][ec] keyword of the `markdown.Markdown`
-	class. The contents of the YAML or JSON must map to a Python Dictionary which 
-	matches the format required by the `extension_configs` keyword. Note that 
-	[PyYAML] is required to parse YAML files.
-
-[cli]: cli.html#using-extensions
-[YAML]: http://yaml.org/
-[JSON]: http://json.org/
-[PyYAML]: http://pyyaml.org/
-
-*   The [admonition extension][ae] is no longer considered "experimental."
-
-[ae]: extensions/admonition.html
-
-*   There have been various refactors of the testing framework. While those changes
-    will not directly effect end users, the code is being better tested which will 
-    benefit everyone.
-
-*   Various bug fixes have been made.  See the
-    [commit log](https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/commits/master)
-    for a complete history of the changes.

-Python-Markdown 2.6 Release Notes
-=================================
-
-We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.6 which adds a few new features
-and fixes various bugs. See the list of changes below for details.
-
-Python-Markdown version 2.6 supports Python versions 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 as well as PyPy.
-
-Backwards-incompatible Changes
-------------------------------
-
-### `safe_mode` Deprecated
-
-Both `safe_mode` and the associated `html_replacement_text` keywords are deprecated 
-in version 2.6 and will raise a **`DeprecationWarning`**. The `safe_mode` and
-`html_replacement_text` keywords will be ignored in version 2.7. The so-called
-"safe mode" was never actually "safe" which has resulted in many people having a false 
-sense of security when using it. As an alternative, the developers of Python-Markdown 
-recommend that any untrusted content be passed through an HTML sanitizer (like [Bleach])

-    html = markdown.markdown(text, safe_mode=True)
-
-Then it is recommended that you change your code to read something like this:
-
-    import bleach
-    html = bleach.clean(markdown.markdown(text))

-If you are not interested in sanitizing untrusted text, but simply desire to escape
-raw HTML, then that can be accomplished through an extension which removes HTML parsing:
-
-    from markdown.extensions import Extension
-
-    class EscapeHtml(Extension):
-        def extendMarkdown(self, md, md_globals):
-        del md.preprocessors['html_block']
-        del md.inlinePatterns['html']
-
-    html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[EscapeHtml()])
-
-As the HTML would not be parsed with the above Extension, then the serializer will
-escape the raw HTML, which is exactly what happens now when `safe_mode="escape"`.
-
-[Bleach]: https://bleach.readthedocs.io/
-
-### Positional Arguments Deprecated
-
-Positional arguments on the `markdown.Markdown()` class are deprecated as are
-all except the `text` argument on the `markdown.markdown()` wrapper function.
-Using positional arguments will raise a **`DeprecationWarning`** in 2.6 and an error
-in version 2.7. Only keyword arguments should be used. For example, if your code
-previously looked like this:
-
-    html = markdown.markdown(text, [SomeExtension()])
-
-Then it is recommended that you change it to read something like this:
-
-    html = markdown.markdown(text, extensions=[SomeExtension()])
-
-!!! Note
-    This change is being made as a result of deprecating `"safe_mode"` as the 
-    `safe_mode` argument was one of the positional arguments. When that argument 
-    is removed, the two arguments following it will no longer be at the correct 
-    position. It is recommended that you always use keywords when they are supported
-    for this reason.
-
-### "Shortened" Extension Names Deprecated
-
-In previous versions of Python-Markdown, the built-in extensions received
-special status and did not require the full path to be provided. Additionally,
-third party extensions whose name started with `"mdx_"` received the same 
-special treatment. This behavior is deprecated and will raise a
-**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in 2.7. Ensure that you
-always use the full path to your extensions. For example, if you previously
-did the following:
-
-    markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['extra'])
-
-You should change your code to the following:
-
-    markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['markdown.extensions.extra'])
-
-The same applies to the command line:
-
-    $ python -m markdown -x markdown.extensions.extra input.txt
-
-Similarly, if you have used a third party extension (for example `mdx_math`), previously
-you might have called it like this:
-
-    markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['math'])
-
-As the `"mdx"` prefix will no longer be appended, you will need to change your code
-as follows (assuming the file `mdx_math.py` is installed at the root of your PYTHONPATH):
-
-    markdown.markdown(text, extensions=['mdx_math'])
-
-Extension authors will want to update their documentation to reflect the new behavior.
-
-See the [documentation](reference.html#extensions) for a full explanation
-of the current behavior.
-
-### Extension Configuration as Part of Extension Name Deprecated
-
-The previously documented method of appending the extension configuration options as 
-a string to the extension name is deprecated and will raise a
-**`DeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6 and an error in 2.7.
-The [`extension_configs`](reference.html#extension_configs) keyword should 
-be used instead. See the [documentation](reference.html#extension-configs) 
-for a full explanation of the current behavior.
-
-### HeaderId Extension Pending Deprecation
-
-The [HeaderId][hid] Extension is pending deprecation and will raise a
-**`PendingDeprecationWarning`** in version 2.6. The extension will be
-deprecated in version 2.7 and raise an error in version 2.8. Use the
-[Table of Contents][TOC] Extension instead, which offers most of the
-features of the HeaderId Extension and more (support for meta data is missing).
-
-Extension authors who have been using the `slugify` and `unique` functions
-defined in the HeaderId Extension should note that those functions are now
-defined in the Table of Contents extension and should adjust their import
-statements accordingly (`from markdown.extensions.toc import slugify, unique`).
-
-[hid]: extensions/header_id.html
-
-### The `configs` Keyword is Deprecated
-
-Positional arguments and the `configs` keyword on the `markdown.extension.Extension` class
-(and its subclasses) are deprecated. Each individual configuration option should be passed
-to the class as a keyword/value pair. For example. one might have previously initiated
-an extension subclass like this:
-
-    ext = SomeExtension(configs={'somekey': 'somevalue'})
-
-That code should be updated to pass in the options directly:
-
-    ext = SomeExtension(somekey='somevalue')
-
-Extension authors will want to note that this affects the `makeExtension` function as well.
-Previously it was common for the function to be defined as follows:
-
-    def makeExtension(configs=None):
-        return SomeExtension(configs=configs)
-
-Extension authors will want to update their code to the following instead:
-
-    def makeExtension(**kwargs):
-        return SomeExtension(**kwargs)
-
-Failing to do so will result in a **`DeprecationWarning`** and will raise an error in the next
-release. See the [Extension API][mext] documentation for more information.
-
-In the event that an `markdown.extension.Extension` subclass overrides the `__init__` method
-and implements its own configuration handling, then the above may not apply. However, it is
-recommended that the subclass still calls the parent `__init__` method to handle configuration
-options like so:
-
-    class SomeExtension(markdown.extension.Extension):
-        def __init__(**kwargs):
-            # Do pre-config stuff here
-            # Set config defaults
-            self.config = {
-                'option1' : ['value1', 'description1'],
-                'option2' : ['value2', 'description2']
-            }
-            # Set user defined configs
-            super(MyExtension, self).__init__(**kwargs)
-            # Do post-config stuff here
-
-Note the call to `super` to get the benefits of configuration handling from the parent class.
-See the [documentation][config] for more information.

-
-What's New in Python-Markdown 2.6
----------------------------------
-
-### Official Support for PyPy
-
-Official support for [PyPy] has been added. While Python-Markdown has most likely
-worked on PyPy for some time, it is now officially supported and tested on PyPy.
-
-[PyPy]: http://pypy.org/
-
-### YAML Style Meta-Data
-
-The [Meta-Data] Extension now includes optional support for [YAML] style
-meta-data. By default, the YAML deliminators are recognized, however, the
-actual data is parsed as previously.  This follows the syntax of
-[MultiMarkdown], which inspired this extension.
-
-Alternatively, if the `yaml` option is set, then the data is parsed as YAML.
-As the `yaml` option was buggy, it was removed in 2.6.1. It is suggested that a third
-party extension be used if you want true YAML support. See [Issue #390][#390] for a full
-explanation.

-### Table of Contents Extension Refactored
-
-The [Table of Contents][TOC] Extension has been refactored and some new features
-have been added.  See the documentation for a full explanation of each feature
-listed below:
-
-*   The extension now assigns the Table of Contents to the `toc` attribute of
-    the Markdown class regardless of whether a "marker" was found in the document.
-    Third party frameworks no longer need to insert a "marker," run the document
-    through Markdown, then extract the Table of Contents from the document.
-
-*   The Table of Contents Extension is now a "registered extension." Therefore, when the `reset`
-    method of the Markdown class is called, the `toc` attribute on the Markdown
-    class is cleared (set to an empty string).
-
-*   When the `marker` configuration option is set to an empty string, the parser completely
-    skips the process of searching the document for markers. This should save parsing
-    time when the Table of Contents Extension is being used only to assign ids to headers.
-
-*   A `separator` configuration option has been added allowing users to override the
-    separator character used by the slugify function.
-
-*   A `baselevel` configuration option has been added allowing users to set the base level
-    of headers in their documents (h1-h6). This allows the header levels to be
-    automatically adjusted to fit within the hierarchy of an HTML template.
-
-[TOC]: extensions/toc.html
-
-### Pygments can now be disabled
-
-The [CodeHilite][ch] Extension has gained a new configuration option: `use_pygments`.
-The option is `True` by default, however, it allows one to turn off Pygments code
-highlighting (set to `False`) while preserving the language detection features of
-the extension. Note that Pygments language guessing is not used as that would 'use
-Pygments'. If a language is defined for a code block, it will be assigned to the 
-`` tag as a class in the manner suggested by the [HTML5 spec][spec]
-(alternate output will not be entertained) and could potentially be used by a JavaScript
-library in the browser to highlight the code block.

-
-### Miscellaneous
-
-Test coverage has been improved including running [flake8]. While those changes
-will not directly effect end users, the code is being better tested which will 
-benefit everyone.
