Feature: support Textile endnotes (auto-numbered notes)

[dfriquet]

Textile-lang documentation presents a syntax for auto-numbered notes called endnotes:

The sun is reportedly hot,[#hot] just like freshly baked potatoes.[#hot] Ice is cold.[#cold]

note#hot. Ouch.

note#cold. Brrr.

notelist.

Is there any plan to support these? I’ve read the code and I think I could end up with a minimalistic version, but I wouldn’t start working on it if it’s already in your pipeline.

N.B.: I’ve just mentionned HTML output because I think my LaTeX is too rusty to deep dive into this kind of challenge in an effective way. But who knows…

Thank you for your time and energy. Best regards,

Currently there is no plan to support it, but thanks for sending the link to the docs.

As far as new features and language support, the last one I see in changlog was a long ago.

But I will keep this issue open for now.
