• {#foo} → <tag id="foo">
• {#foo#bar} → <tag id="bar">
• {.foo} → <tag class="foo">
• {.foo.bar} → <tag class="foo bar">
• {#foo.bar.baz} → <tag id="foo" class="bar baz">
• {#foo .bar .baz} → <tag id="foo" class="bar baz"> (white-space before # and . becomes optional in my extension)
• {foo="bar"} → <tag foo="bar">
• {foo="bar baz"} → <tag foo="bar baz">
• {foo='bar'} → <tag foo="bar">
• {foo='bar baz'} → <tag foo="bar baz">
• {foo=bar} → <tag foo="bar">
• {foo=} → <tag foo="">
• {foo} → <tag foo="foo">
• {foo=bar baz} → <tag foo="bar" baz="baz">
• {#a#b.c.d e="f" g="h i" j='k' l='m n' o=p q= r s t="u#v.w.x y=z"} → <tag id="b" class="c d" e="f" g="h i" j="k" l="m n" o="p" q="" r="r" s="s" t="u#v.w.x y=z">

Code Block Class Without language- Prefix

Dot prefix in class name are now becomes optional, custom attributes syntax also acceptable:

• php html → <pre><code class="language-php language-html">
• .php → <pre><code class="php">
• .php.html → <pre><code class="php html">
• .php html → <pre><code class="php language-html">
• {.php #foo} → <pre><code id="foo" class="php">
