Text-to-LaTeX and Text-to-HTML parser/generator

[ugeorge]

Currently LaTeX is generated using ad hoc modules. Could it be done using a grammar? Need to check that.

[ugeorge]

A grammar is irrelevant. Although elegant in some situations, it is too much of an overkill. Since much of the backend syntax is one-to-one transformation or in the worst case identifiable through regular expressions, it can be easily and efficiently solved with dictionaries and minimal sets of functions.

[ugeorge]

will use docutils publisher having reStructuredText as markup

[ugeorge]

Both LaTeX and HTML parsing/generation will have two stages:

• altering the rows where citations or internal hyperrefs are added
• docutils parsing

[ugeorge]

added the HTML generation to this same issue. Will be used later on for embedding in the zotero plugin
