Hi,

KMarkdownWebView 0.5.2 has been released.

The KMarkdownWebView software is for the rendered display of Markdown 
documents, using web technologies. It implements a C++/Qt-based wrapper around 
a local webpage with a JavaScript library ("Marked") which creates HTML from 
the plain text in Markdown format passed in.
The current version provides a KParts plugin and, if built against QtWebKit, a 
KIO thumbnail generator plugin.

Learn more at https://cgit.kde.org/kmarkdownwebview.git/about/

Changes since 0.5.1:
* Update of "Marked" source copy to latest release v0.3.18 *)
* Translations updated for some languages (nn, sl)

*) I heard that there are distributions which have packaged Marked. Given that 
since KMarkdownWebView has started Marked has returned to be under good 
development again, instead of shipping & using a copy of marked.min.js it 
would be better to use whatever latest (compatible) release of marked, either 
from a package or by generation during the build. Or even not baking a given 
version into the KMarkdownWebView package/binary, but instead using at runtime 
some global system marked.min.js, coming from a separate package which can be 
updated independently.

Proposals welcome how to do that while integrating with distribution package 
building. Please comment on https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392640 for 
this.

Cheers
Friedrich
