Backlog Issues

rst conversion steps

1. rst references see "The reStructuredText Cheat Sheet: Syntax"
    and "Quick reStructuredText"
2. First step:
   1. trim lines to 80 characters (for continuous lines (in commands) use "\");
   2. standardise list character to "*";
   3. remove html wherever possible (e.g., <p>; inclusion of figures; not tables);
   4. introduce blank line before and after titles, and first-level list;
   5. inclusion of figures " <!-- width="50%" -->"; 
      
3. Second step convert to rst: "pandoc -f markdown source.md -o target.rst" (for multiple files use "for i in $(seq n); do pandoc chapter0$1.md -o chapter0$1.rst" where n is between 0 and 9)
   1. Second step: manual correction of all references; change html; use "Atom target.rst"
