[Feature] Code Fences

[zicklag]

Would it be possible to support code fences? The README says that they are not supported and I was not sure if that was a intentional design decision.

The purpose for supporting code fences, in my case, is that I am taking the same markdown that I am using for Termimad and using it to power my online documentation with mdbook. mdbook supports syntax highlighting when using code fences, so if Termimad allowed them, even without syntax highlighting, it will allow me to use syntax highlighting in mdbook.

On a side note, only because of Termimad am I able to use the same documentation for the CLI and the web documentation and it is awesome. Thanks a lot for helping enable this for my project:

Let's clarify: yes it was intentional.
I don't like code fences.
They break the design of Markdown, which was initially line oriented, meaning that looking at any part of a pure markdown text you could know what you were looking at (ie: some code, some simple text, some list item, some table row, etc.). Introducing code fences changes it to a markup format where you need the whole previous text to know whether you're looking at some code or not.

Now... this being stated... introducing code fences would be easy and I'll probably do it, as a pragmatic utility.

Yeah, I can see where the concern is. Thanks for trying it. :)

Looks like it isn't working with templates? Here is a gist which has a modified version of the scrollable example using a template. Am I doing something wrong?

It is interpreting the triple backtick as a horizontal rule and then interpreting the rest of the code inside as markdown.

@zicklag I've opened a new issue for that: #14
