7.0.0rc2

7.0rc2

Please see Release Notes for details on upgrading to 7.0.

• NEW: MagicLink will now shorten user name and repository links when link shortening is enabled.
• NEW: Added MagicLink options social_url_shortener and shortener_user_exclude were added.
• NEW: UML examples are now demonstrated with Mermaid in documentation.
• NEW: SuperFences, if using the attribute list format (``` {.lang .additional_class, linenums="1"}) allows
  adding additional classes. IDs can be added as well, though Pygments generated code blocks do not have a mechanism to
  actually insert IDs. The first provided class will always be treated as the language class.
• NEW: Custom SuperFences' formatters should now also include the keyword parametersclasses and id_value to
  allow injecting classes and IDs via the now supported attribute list format. If a code block defines no additional IDs
  and classes, the old form will be used. Formatters should include **kwargs at the end to future proof them from
  future changes.
• NEW: Deprecate the SuperFences highight_code option. As SuperFences syntax has language classes built right in,
  disabling the highlight_code option makes little sense. While highlight_code is still accepted, it currently does
  nothing and will be removed at some future time.
• NEW: If a custom fence (SuperFences) or inline (InlineHilite) is given the name of *, it will override the
  default fence logic.
• NEW: SuperFences and InlineHilite no longer sync settings from CodeHilite.
• NEW: Add new Tabbed extension for general purpose tabbed content in Markdown.
• NEW: Deprecate old SuperFences tabbed content feature. This will be removed in 8.0.
• NEW: SuperFences' tabbed content classes have changed from supferfences-tabs and superfences-content to
  tabbed-set and tabbed-content respectively. Old style classes can be enabled with the legacy_tab_classes option
  in SuperFences. This new option will be retired with SuperFences tabbed content feature in 8.0.
• NEW: Upgrade to Twemoji 12.1.5.
• NEW: New key codes and key code changes in Keys extension:
  • Added super, left-super, and right-super key codes as an alternative to meta. Aliases lsuper and
    rsuper were also added.
  • Added the alt-graph key code with altgr alias.
  • Added the following new aliases: lwindows and rwindows for consistency.
  • Added new codes left-meta and right-meta for consistency with other modifiers. Aliases lmeta and rmeta
    were also added.
  • Added left-option, right-option, left-command, right-command, left-meta, and right-meta codes for
    consistency across similar modifier keys. Additional aliases were added as well: loption, roption, lopt,
    ropt, left-opt, right-opt, lcommand, rcommand, lcmd, rcmd, left-cmd, right-cmd, lmeta, and
    rmeta.
  • alt no longer uses menu, lmenu, and rmenu as key aliases. context-menu now uses the alias menu.
    context-menu will display with Menu now.
• FIX: Numerous deprecation warnings associated with the recent release of Python Markdown 3.2.
• FIX: Ensure ExtraRawHTML raises a deprecation warning.
