1 This is the "Ideas" page for Emacs Muse.
3 It lists various ideas for future enhancements to Emacs Muse. It also
4 serves to keep track of various changes that the maintainer would like
5 to merge into Muse at some point.
9 ** Waiting on copyright assignments
11 - Markus Hoenicka (markus.hoenicka AT mhoenicka.de)
12 - <cite> tag, which is for refDB and BibTeX both:
13 http://refdb.sourceforge.net/pre/muse-cite.patch
15 - Jean Jean Magnan de Bornier (jean AT bornier.net)
16 - ConTeX support (similar to LaTeX):
17 http://jm.bornier.free.fr/muse.html
19 ** Waiting for a new release
22 - jeho-latex.el: a rewrite of muse-latex.el which should replace it
24 - muse-latex-labels.el: addition of cross-references to LaTeX.
25 Should be merged into muse-latex.el after replacing with
28 ** Before the 3.03 release
31 - three-part-link.el: allow links like "project#page#anchor" or

68 when the normal markup symbols are ambiguous (i.e., math
