Line numbering?

Line numbering?

[pazz]

I should say I am on pandoc version 2.17.1.1 (debian testing).

When I leave out the template option above, the html body is the same but the line numbers do show (It is magic to me where the actual numbers come from but that's unrelated :)).

I also tried with --highlight-style=tango, same thing.

I wonder if this is related? It is quite old...
jgm/pandoc#4128

The line numbers seem to be there, but shifted somehow. If I disable the CSS styling (close to the pointer in the image below), they appear.

Sorry for my clumsy attempts at debugging this.
Any help would be appreciated!

It should be easy to determine whether it's a CSS related issue or a problem with the highlighter not producing the line numbers — in the former, inspection of HTML contents should reveal the line numbers, which might be hidden due to CSS problems, whereas in the latter the line numbers should not be present in the generated HTML.

I don't remember exactly whether line-numbers are added by Skylighting (the syntax highlighter library) or pandoc itself. But chances are that when using a syntax highlighter with auto-detection of the language, if the highlighter fails to detect a language (and thus to syntax highlight at all), it might be the case that line-numbers are not generated (since the highlighter might be bypassed), so in this respect different highlighters might work differently.

It might be the case that the CSS needs tweaking, although I thought I had covered line-numbering styles — I surely did for Highlight, which is the external highlighter that I use most with pandoc, rather than the built-in Skylighting.

Anyhow, if the problem is CSS related it should be easy to fix. If you have a solution, please create a pull request, otherwise allow me some time to find a free afternoon where I can look into it.

Sure, no rush. I am quite sure that it is a CSS thing, because the html body is exactly the same with your or the default template (where it works as expected).
It seems that the numbers themselves fall out of some counter when the CSS is rendered (see my img, two lines above the cursor). They do not appear in the html itself, no matter the template.
