## kramdown 0.13.7 released

This release, aside from fixing bugs and some other minor changes, adds a new converter for removing
HTML tags from an element tree. This means that one can now do

    kramdown -i html -o remove_html_tags,kramdown my_document.html

and get a nice kramdown document from a full HTML document!

## Changes

* 1 major change

  - Implemented [RemoveHtmlTags converter] for removing HTML tags from an element tree (fixes bug
    [RF#29282] requested by Bernard Potocki)

* 3 minor changes

  - Updated kramdown binary to support multiple, chained output formats
  - Added a new option for setting a default coderay highlighting language (requested by Lou
    Quillio)
  - Feature request [RF#29575]: Added support for `&shy;` soft-hyphen entity (requested by Alexander
    Groß)

* 5 bug fixes

  - Fixed bug [RF#29576]: Footnotes in headers resulted in duplicated `id` attr in TOC (reported by
    korthaerd)
  - Multi-line titles in links are now correctly parsed
  - DOCTYPE declaration is now correctly parsed independent of case
  - Setting of `nil` options works now by using the String 'nil'
  - Fixed table-of-content test cases (test went green although the meaning of the test was not
    satisfied due to copy-paste - d'oh!)

    (reported by korthaerd)
