               ## embedded in Nim comments)
  roSupportSmilies,           ## make the RST parser support smilies like ``:)``
  roSupportRawDirective,      ## support the ``raw`` directive (don't support
                        ## it for sandboxing)
  roSupportMarkdown           ## support additional features of markdown

Procs

proc whichMsgClass(k: MsgKind): MsgClass {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}
returns which message class k belongs to.   Source Edit
proc defaultMsgHandler(filename: string; line, col: int; msgkind: MsgKind; arg: string) {...}{.
    procvar, raises: [ValueError, EParseError, IOError], tags: [WriteIOEffect].}
  Source Edit
proc defaultFindFile(filename: string): string {...}{.procvar, raises: [],
    tags: [ReadDirEffect].}

proc rstnodeToRefname(n: PRstNode): string {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}
  Source Edit
proc getFieldValue(n: PRstNode): string {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

Returns the value of a specific rnField node.

This proc will assert if the node is not of the expected type. The empty string will be returned as a minimum. Any value in the rst will be stripped form leading/trailing whitespace.
