It is based on [Markups] module which supports Markdown, reStructuredText, Textile and AsciiDoc. One can also add support for [custom markups] using Python modules. ![ReText on Plasma 5 desktop][Screenshot] To install ReText, make sure that you have [Python] (3.9 or later) installed, and run pip3 install ReText . To avoid system-wide installation, you can create a [virtual environment] and install from there. You can also manually download the tarball from [PyPI] or clone the repository, and then run ./retext.py . ReText requires [PyQt6] and [Markups] (4.0 or later) to run. When you run pip3 install ReText , pip will install them automatically, but you can also install manually and specify markups that you are going to use using extras syntax, e.g.: pip3 install Markups[markdown,restructuredtext,textile] We also recommend having these packages installed: pyenchant — for spell checking support chardet — for encoding detection support PyQt6-WebEngine — a more powerful preview engine with JavaScript support Translation files are already compiled for release tarballs and will be automatically loaded. For development snapshots, compile translations using lrelease ReText/locale/ .ts command (on Debian-based systems, use /usr/lib/qt6/bin/lrelease from qt6-l10n-tools package). Translation files can also be loaded from /usr/s","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/retext-project","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/retext-project/retext/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
