# RETRO Source to HTML
RETRO programs are written using a literate format called
Unu which allows mixing of code and commentary in a somewhat
literate format.
Code (and optionally tests) is extracted from fenced blocks,
and commentary normally uses a subset of Markdown.
This tool processes both parts, generating formatted HTML
documents that look nice, and also provides syntax highlighting
for the test and code blocks.
## Features
For Markdown:
- lists
- indented code blocks
- paragraphs
- headers
- fenced code and test blocks
- horizontal rules
- *inline* _formatting_ elements
For RETRO:
- syntax highlighting of most elements
- uses introspection to identify primitives
For both:
- easily customizable via CSS at the end of this file
## Limitations
This only supports a limited subset of full Markdown. I am
not adding support for the various linking formats, ordered
lists, underlined headers, doubled asterisk, doubled
underscores, multiple line/paragraph list entries, or images.
The formatting must follow the following limits:
# Title
## Subtitle
### Level 3 Title
Paragraph. *Bold*, _italics_, `inline code`.
Another paragraph.
- list element
- list element
- nested list element
- nested list element
- list element
~~~
:retro (code ;
~~~
```
tests
```
Sample code or output with four leading spaces is
note colorized.
this will be code, but not run through the
colorizer.
More paragraph text.
----
Above is a horizontal separator.
This is not very intelligent. If you have text like `3 * 4`,
it'll happily treat the \* as the start of a bold sequence.
Use a leading backslash to avoid this.
----
## The Code
### Headers and CSS Injection
HTML is pretty verbose and wants a bunch of boilerplate to
work nicely, so I start with some header stuff.
~~~
'<?xml_version="1.0"_encoding="utf-8"?> s:put nl
'<!DOCTYPE_html_PUBLIC_"-//W3C//DTD_XHTML_1.1//EN" s:put sp
'"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> s:put nl
'<html_xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head> s:put nl
'<title>.</title> s:put nl
~~~
Locate and embed the CSS from the end of this file. The CSS
will be at the end of the file, starting with the line reading
"\#\# CSS".
~~~
'<style_type="text/css"> s:put nl
FALSE script:name
[ over [ '##_CSS s:eq? or ] -if; s:put nl ] file:for-each-line
drop
'</style> s:put nl
~~~
Finish the header boilerplate and switch to the body.
~~~
'</head><body> s:put nl
'<p> s:put
~~~
### Support Code
The first couple of words are a variation of `s:put` that
generates HTML codes for specific characters. This ensures
that code output displays correctly.
~~~
:c:put<code>
$< [ '&lt; s:put ] case
$> [ '&gt; s:put ] case
$& [ '&amp; s:put ] case
ASCII:SPACE [ '&nbsp; s:put ] case
c:put ;
:s:put<code> [ c:put<code> ] s:for-each ;
~~~
For regular text, there are a couple of inline formatting things
to deal with.
These are:
* emphasis
* strong (bold)
* escaped characters
* code
~~~
'Emphasis var
'Strong var
'Escape var
'Code var
~~~
~~~
:format
$` [ @Escape [ &Escape v:off $* c:put ] if;
@Code n:zero? [ '<span_class="tt"> &Code v:on ]
[ '</span> &Code v:off ] choose s:put ] case
$* [ @Escape @Code or [ &Escape v:off $* c:put ] if;
@Strong n:zero? [ '<strong> &Strong v:on ]
[ '</strong> &Strong v:off ] choose s:put ] case
$_ [ @Escape @Code or [ &Escape v:off $_ c:put ] if;
@Emphasis n:zero? [ '<em> &Emphasis v:on ]
[ '</em> &Emphasis v:off ] choose s:put ] case
$\ [ &Escape v:on ] case
ASCII:SPACE [ sp ] case
c:put<code> ;
:s:put<formatted> [ format ] s:for-each ;
~~~
### Markdown Elements
*Code and Test Blocks*
The biggest element is the code and test blocks.
These will be generated in an enclosure that looks like:
<div class='codeblock'><tt>
... code ...
</tt></div>
The actual words in the code will be in `<span>` elements.
The fences need to start and end with `~~~` or three backticks
on a line by itself.
So, identifying and generating an HTML container for a code
block is a matter of:
~~~
{{
'Block var
:begin '<span_class='codeblock'><span_class="tt">~~~</span><br/> ;
:end '<span_class="tt">~~~</span></span> ;
---reveal---
:in-code-block? (-f) @Block ;
:code-block? (s-sf) dup '~~~ s:eq? ;
:toggle-code (n-)
drop @Block n:zero? dup &begin &end choose s:put !Block ;
}}
~~~
And test blocks are basically the same, except for the
delimiters.
~~~
{{
'Block var
:begin '<span_class='codeblock'><span_class="tt">```</span><br/> ;
:end '<span_class="tt">```</span></span> ;
---reveal---
:in-test-block? (-f) @Block ;
:test-block? (s-sf) dup '``` s:eq? ;
:toggle-test (n-)
drop @Block n:zero? dup &begin &end choose s:put !Block ;
}}
~~~
On to generating the actual HTML for the syntax highlighted
source. This is driven by the sigil, then by word class via
a little quick introspection.
~~~
{{
:span (s-)
'<span_class=' s:put s:put ''> s:put s:put<code> '</span>_ s:put ;
---reveal---
:format-code (s-)
(ignore_empty_tokens)
dup s:length n:zero? [ '&nbsp; s:put drop ] if;
(tokens_with_sigils)
dup fetch
$: [ 'colon span ] case
$( [ 'note span ] case
$' [ 'str span ] case
$# [ 'num span ] case
$. [ 'fnum span ] case
$& [ 'ptr span ] case
$$ [ 'char span ] case
$` [ 'inst span ] case
$\ [ 'inst span ] case
$| [ 'defer span ] case
$@ [ 'fetch span ] case
$! [ 'store span ] case
(immediate_and_primitives)
drop dup
d:lookup d:class fetch
&class:macro [ 'imm span ] case
&class:primitive [ 'prim span ] case
drop
(normal_words)
s:put<code> sp ;
:colorize
ASCII:SPACE s:tokenize &format-code a:for-each ;
:format:code
'<span_class="tt"> s:put colorize '</span><br/> s:put nl ;
}}
~~~
*Headers*
After this, I define detection and formatting of headers. The
headers should look like:
# Level 1
## Level 2
### Level 3
~~~
:header?
dup [ '#_ s:begins-with? ]
[ '##_ s:begins-with? ]
[ '###_ s:begins-with? ] tri or or
over '####_ s:begins-with? or ;
:format:head
ASCII:SPACE s:split/char
'# [ '<span_class="h1"> s:put n:inc s:put '</span> s:put nl ] s:case
'## [ '<span_class="h2"> s:put n:inc s:put '</span> s:put nl ] s:case
'### [ '<span_class="h3"> s:put n:inc s:put '</span> s:put nl ] s:case
'#### [ '<span_class="h4"> s:put n:inc s:put '</span> s:put nl ] s:case
drop ;
~~~
*Indented Code Blocks*
Indented code blocks are lines indented by four spaces.
These are *not* syntax highlighted as they are ignored by
Unu.
~~~
:inline-code? dup '____ s:begins-with? ;
:format:inline-code
'<tt_class='indentedcode'> s:put
#4 + s:put<code>
'</tt> s:put nl ;
~~~
*Horizontal Rules*
Horizonal rules consist of four or more - characters on
a line. E.g.,
----
--------
This also accepts sequences of `-+-+` which were used in
some older RETRO source files.
~~~
:rule?
dup [ '---- s:begins-with? ] [ '-+-+ s:begins-with? ] bi or ;
:format:rule drop '<span_class="hr"></span> s:put nl ;
~~~
*Lists*
Lists start with a `-` or `*`, followed by a space, then
the item text. Additionally, this allows for nested lists starting
with two spaces before the list marker.
~~~
:list?
dup [ '-_ s:begins-with? ] [ '*_ s:begins-with? ] bi or ;
:format:list '&bull;_ s:put #2 + s:put<formatted> '<br/> s:put nl ;
:indented-list?
dup [ '__-_ s:begins-with? ] [ '__*_ s:begins-with? ] bi or ;
:format:indented-list
'<span_class='indentedlist'>&bull; s:put
#3 + s:put<formatted> '</span><br/> s:put nl ;
~~~
*Paragraphs*
Blank lines denote paragraph breaks.
~~~
:blank? dup s:length n:zero? ;
'InParagraph var
~~~
*The Formatter*
This ties together the various words above, generating the
output.
~~~
:format
s:keep
code-block? [ toggle-code ] if;
in-code-block? [ format:code ] if;
test-block? [ toggle-test ] if;
in-test-block? [ format:code ] if;
blank? [ drop '<br/><br/> s:put nl ] if;
header? [ format:head ] if;
inline-code? [ format:inline-code ] if;
list? [ format:list ] if;
indented-list? [ format:indented-list ] if;
rule? [ format:rule ] if;
s:put<formatted> nl ;
#0 script:get-argument [ &Heap &format v:preserve ] file:for-each-line
reset
'</p> s:put nl
'</body></html> s:put nl
~~~
This concludes the Markdown (subset) in RETRO utility. All that's
left is the CSS.
