Previously, when a grave accent was appearing as the last character of a text line, MarkDoc was crashing because Stata was considering that character as a macro. A workaround was added to avoid this problem.

Thanks to Christopher Prener for reporting the bug!

Arguments added to `markdoc.ado`

unc: a new option was added to markdown named unc which changes the behavior of the package when it is accessed from a windows server. this argument will be further developed to address errors rising from UNC paths on windows servers
- the next versions of MarkDoc will provide further assistance with using MarkDoc from servers and computer labs.
export("dzslide") argument was removed because dzslide document was rather problematic on Chrome browser. Aiming at further simplifying markdoc, this document was removed from the officially supported document formats, although markdoc will continue to support it for a while.

Other Ado files

markdocstyle.ado: mathjax.org shut down its CDN in 2017 and loading the JS became problematic in the HTML files and PDF files printed from Markdown. markdocstyle.ado was updated accordingly to point to a new CDN. https://www.mathjax.org/cdn-shutting-down/
rundoc.ado: the program had a bug with displaying mathematical notations which is fixed
markdoc.dlg: MarkDoc has a decent dialog box that includes the main features of the package for developing dynamic documents, dynamic slides, and dynamic Stata help files. The dialog box has been greatly improved in the new version and its bugs are fixed.
