Notes

Some notes and changes to the original creole specs

There exists some differences to the original markup:

italics -> <i> and not <em>
inline format (bold, italic etc.) can't cross lines (see also: http://code.google.com/p/python-creole/issues/detail?id=12 )
Since v1.0.5: Don't accept Single punctuation characters (,.?!:;"') at the end of URLs (see: Creole1.0 link specs)

We implemented a more stricted image tag than the original:

It matches only if...
1. ...image target ends with a picture extention
2. ...separator >|< for the image text exist

We used blog-style line break instead of wiki-style (every line break would be convertet into {{{
}}})

But you can change back to "wiki new line style", e.g.:

>>> from creole import creole2html
>>> creole2html("Wiki style\\\\line breaks.", blog_line_breaks=False)
u'<p>Wiki style<br />\nline breaks.</p>\n'

(see also: [API])

The creole2html part support macros. But you must activate macros by ourself. More information: CreoleMacros
