Documentation does not describe how to use Markdown feature

[basebox-mt]

Cursive does have a markdown feature flag, but it is not documented how to display Markdown e.g. in a TextView.

There is also no example code.

This is what I have come up with so far:

use cursive::utils::markup::markdown::parse;

let content = parse(include_str!("LICENSE.md"));
// `content` is a `SpannedString` with styles, I can see that when I dump it
let text_view = TextView::new(content)
  .scrollable()
  [...]

The output is not styled, it is rather garbled, as it strips newlines, see screenshot: The '## Overview' heading should really start on a new line.

Hi, and thanks for the report!

I agree that the feature (and the entire markdown module) could benefit from better documentation.

Your usage look reasonable though, so I'll need to investigate what's going on. Either the license is not actually proper markdown, or the markdown parser is somehow failing here, or we're not properly handling the events it reports (most likely). Do you have a link to the LICENSE.md file you used?

Indeed, newlines around heading and code blocks was incorrectly generated for markdown events. This should now be fixed in the latest commit.

Note that single newlines in markdown are ignored (so you can line-wrap the source markdown without affecting the output). You need double newlines for an actual newline (well, a new paragraph) to be generated.

Thanks for getting back to this.

This is the Markdown I used:

I'm not sure, it isn't fixed here

I've also noticed that list or bullets too fail to work

This is what it returns in plain text view
