The point is not to use someone else's code or even to duplicate the logic to a perfect binary-compatible tee, the point is to be "standard enough" that it's familiar to people who come in from Github, StackOverflow, Slack, Reddit etc. The php-inspired macro idea is another attempt at making it more familiar to people and thus more intuitive.

I had just imagined an extension to the markdown standard, not sure exactly how macros ought to be implemented... One possibility:

$doc.getFullName() ?>

or

?> Hey, that is very "standard" in the sense of PHP-ish. I like it but I am sure it can clash heavily somewhere.

Another proposal is here: https://github.com/codingcoop/markdown-macros More compact... thus less portable…

Can you explain why you’re trying to do something that’s already implemented? You don’t like our current implementation?

Thanks -Vincent
