Table of contents for markdown pages

[Samuel S. Watson]

Is there a convenient way to do a table of contents in a markdown (non-post) page? My first thought was to use a markdown template and call @tableofcontents[], but that function isn't available from scribble/text, and calling require makes the template renderer complain that requiring can only happen at the top level.

Off the top of my head I can't think of a convenient way.

• I have sometimes generated one manually: Observed the id values in h1 etc. elements (Frog generates "slugs" from the content) and typed out the ToC links myself.

• If I had a page long enough to benefit from a table of contents to its own sections, I might author it using Scribble instead of markdown format, and directly use table-of-contents.

• As for require: Use local-require in templates.
