The two `+` are still absent from the manpage > (but as before, the `+` in the next paragraph is printed as desired). After a few more experiments with different placements of backticks et cetera, I found only the following variants to work with asciidoc 8: (as mentioned, not compatible to asciidoc 7): `$$+$$?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed (as mentioned, compatible) `\+?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed (also OK, and this is probably the only really correct syntax) `\+?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `\+`, followed (also OK but misses the monospace formatting on the plus or on the plus and questionmark) \+`?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed \+?`<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed \+?`<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus \+, followed `\+?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus +, followed Note, `+``?<src>:<dst>`; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed does _not_ work. It stops on invalid syntax in the intermediary xml file. Also +\+?<src>:<dst>+; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed or `+`+?<src>:<dst>+; that is, an optional plus `+`, followed do _not_ work. They don't print what we want to see. -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-==- =-=- --=-- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
