Features Request

[tricktux]

I would like to start by expressing how excited I am about md2anki. I've followed mdanki for a long time. However, the issue with exports overriding cards, it's truly a deal breaker. Cards, get added and modified all the time. It's truly exciting that you guys were able to fix this issue!

Couple of useful features I would like to request from mdanki are:

1. Ability to extend card front with %.
2. Code highlighting

BTW: The latex handling it's pretty awesome.
I've also been following, issue #15

Thanks again for the great work!

Thank you very much for those kind words. The ability to extend card fronts is on the top of my list as well. However, I intend to use an html-comment syntax for splitting card back and front by default (something like <!-- md2anki split -->). Considering your use case I will add optional compatibility with the mdanki-%-syntax.

I will be working on this as well as #15 on the weekend. I thought about syntax-highlighting for code blocks as well, but that might take some more time.

Perhaps we could use something like https://highlightjs.org/ for syntax highlighting?

1. Search for code tags in HTML
2. run that through highlightJS
3. profit?

highlightjs is what I had in my mind as well. It's also the recommended way by markdown-it.

@RvNovae Do you might want to implement syntax highlighting? I already did some work on the "extending card fronts"-feature. A PR should be ready for review this evening.

Yeah sounds good, I can take a look at it over the weekend.

@Steve2955 Thank you much for considering the requests! Really looking forward to that code highlight!
