Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] TOC extension anchor links

[Waylan L. <wa...@gm...>]

Jay,

The TOC Extension already has a config setting (anchorlink) which
defaults to off. According to the commit history, it has been there
since the extension was first added to Markdown.

If you just want ids automatically assigned to headers, I would
suggest the HeaderId [1] Extension which does just that. In fact, the
TOC extension imports the id assignment functionality from the
HeaderId extension - but has no anchors.
