convert Creole to LaTeX

309 views Asked by At

Care to recommend a tool/workflow(s) for converting Creole wiki pages/files to LaTeX?

I'm a grad student who has been documenting code and analyses using (a number of) wikis, mostly using Creole syntax. I like Creole, but eventually I'll need to write an article, for which I'll need to generate LaTeX. Is there a tool that will do that directly and competently? If not, what's the next-best, least-effort, highest-quality indirect path? Some things that came to mind are:

  1. Pandoc: supports LaTeX for both input or output, but does not support Creole for either input or output. (Am I missing something?)
  2. reStructuredText: I know Pandoc supports reST for both input or output, and of course it's widely used with Python, so I'm starting to use reST for new wikis. But I'm not seeing a Creole -> reST converter. (Am I missing something?)
  3. HTML: Pandoc supports HTML for both input and output, as I'm sure do a zillion other tools, including python-creole. So Creole >python-creole> HTML >Pandoc> LaTeX seems feasible (am I missing something?) but indirect.

Pandoc offers a Creole2Latex interface as can be tested online. However Creole is called Haddock Markup there.
