🛠 macros
added macros basically in order to add a reading time to the page. might use it for other stuff later, but that's what i want it for now. according to https://thereadtime.com/ the words-per-minute reading rate for reading out loud is 183. And the average speed for reading silently is 234 wpm. which is what we use here. if you ever want to adjust this rate, edit zxWPM in macrosmain

[^bool]: These are not true booleans. Pandoc templates cannot evaluate the value of a field. Only its presence. This could say `public: astronauts` or `syndicated: spaghetti`. You can only set these flags on and off by including or omitting the field entirely. This is probably not the way you would expect it to work, so watch out. Incidentally, this is the same way that the stateless templating engine *mustache* works. Pandoc templates bring so little to the table that it might be easier in the future to just use recfiles instead of markdown+yaml, and pipe it through mustache or recfmt.
|
||||
|
||||
## macros
|
||||
|
||||
you can define macros in `/macros` and then include them in your documents to be expanded while building.
|
||||
|
||||
i arbitrarily adopted a "zxMACRONAME" naming convention because an all-caps macro name is *probably* safe, but is even safer with a random `zx` in front of it.
|
||||
|
||||
also it gives you good autocompletion if all your macros have the same prefix / namespace.
