Getting the id for headings about delphi-markdown HOT 6 OPEN

Wouldn't it be easier to do something like this:

## Headline with ID
→ becomes →
<h2 id="headline-with-id">Headline with ID</h2>

this is generic and quite easy to deal with because the headline itself is the ID.

so what's the actual issue? Do you have a test case?

from delphi-markdown.

Test Case for Txtmark extensions: Text anchors

## Headline with ID ##     {#headid}

Another headline with ID   {#headid2}
------------------------

* List with ID             {#listid}

Links: [Foo] (#headid)

This should produce:

<h2 id="headid">Headline with ID</h2>
<h2 id="headid2">Another headline with ID</h2>
<ul>
<li id="listid">List with ID</li>
</ul>
<p>Links: <a href="#headid">Foo</a></p>

The IDs are not inserted into the tags

well, maybe. What is common mark doing?

from delphi-markdown.

https://talk.commonmark.org/t/anchors-in-markdown/247. Per the first example. I'll implement it when I get a chance

As far as I can see https://talk.commonmark.org/t/anchors-in-markdown/247 gives no final decision on that. Several compilers implicitly generate headline IDs by text (my example). But there is still an option vor anchors missing. I'd prefer something like :[jumpto] which would be close to footnote/image reference design.
