Cheatsheets are written in markdown. See cheatsheets/template.md for an example.

You need Pandoc, a suitable LaTeX installation, and the pandocfilters Python package.

Use render.sh.

./render.sh file.md pdf
./render.sh file.md tex
./render.sh file.md native  # useful for debugging pandoc filters

With these configuration files, Pandoc renders markdown files into two-column cheatsheets where every section is drawn in a colored box.

See samples/template.md for a more concrete example and samples/empty.md for an empty starter file.
