[Python-markdown-discuss] List-like blockprocessor

[Kalle R. <ka...@hi...>]

Hi there,

I have extended Python Markdown with a new block-processor which 
resembles a list, say with a bullet #. I am having problems with making 
it interact well with ordinary lists. Consider the following text:

* List begins here

      # New list-like thing begins here (1)

             This should also be in the new thing. (2)

Currently, the parser
a) parses the list-item with UListProcessor
b) parses the child-block (1) with ListIndentProcessor
c) sends the child-block (1) to be parsed by the NewThingProcessor
d) parses the child-block (2) with ListIndentProcessor

The problem is, NewThingProcessor never gets the opportunity to deal 
with the additional content in child-block (2): the child-block (2) is 
not in the set of blocks when parsing child-block (1) in c).

Is there a way to make this work?
