I am trying to get MMD to “correctly” export quotes and blockquotes to LaTeX, i.e. as \begin{quote(ation)} — \end{quote(ation)}. MMD seems always to export is at something like \begin{adjustwidth} and a \being{verbatim}, thereby also killing all footnotes in the quotations. If I typeset LaTeX code directly into the file (which would be more than fine with me, actually), it always transforms the backslashes and {} so that they print as such in LaTeX. So I tried to modify the XSLT files accordingly but it doesn’t seem to work. I looked through the forum trying to find an answer, but didn’t (perhaps by my own fault). Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?
Interesting, you are not getting a standard result, as my blockquotes are correctly exported in a quotation environment. Just out to eliminate the obvious, how are you marking your quotes? The correct syntax is to put a > in front of the quote, like you would in an e-mail. It almost sounds like you are indenting them with spaces, which will produce a code block that is rendered precisely how you describe it, in LaTeX, which will yes kill all syntax as that is the purpose of a code block.
Is there a way, though, to make MMD produce quote and quotation environments depending on the size of the quoted passage (one paragraph vs. several paragraphs)?
