title: SmartyPants Extension prev_title: Sane Lists Extension prev_url: sane_lists.html next_title: Table of Contents Extension next_url: toc.html SmartyPants =========== Summary ------- The SmartyPants extension converts ASCII dashes, quotes and ellipses to their HTML entity equivalents. ASCII symbol | Replacements | HTML Entities ------------ | --------------- | ------------------- ' | ‘ ’ | `‘` `’` " | “ ” | `“` `”` \... | … | `…` \-- | – | `–` -\-- | — | `—` !!! note This extension reimplements the Python [SmartyPants] library by intregated it into the markdown parser. While this does not provide any additional features, it does offer a few advantages. Notably, it will not try to work on highlighted code blocks (using the [CodeHilite] Extension) like the third party library has been known to do. [SmartyPants]: http://pythonhosted.org/smartypants/ [CodeHilite]: code_hilite.html Usage ----- See [Extensions](index.html) for general extension usage, specify `smarty` as the name of the extension. See the [Library Reference](../reference.html#extensions) for information about configuring extensions.
