0.1.1

Summary

This version significantly improves Python Markdown highlighting in Visual Studio Code. It adds support for emphasis, strong emphasis, and mixed emphasis nesting, while fixing a broad range of incorrect or incomplete inline highlighting for links, images, footnotes, autolinks, embedded inline Markdown, and escaped reference identifiers.

The result is a more accurate and predictable editing experience, especially while typing nested inline constructs. It also fixes a bug where the extension would associate all Markdown files in a workspace with Python Markdown automatically. As described in the getting started guide, projects should opt into Python Markdown explicitly via a file association in .vscode/settings.json:

{
  "files.associations": {
    "*.md": "python-markdown"
  }
}
