# pikchr-mode

A major mode for the [pikchr](https://pikchr.org/) diagram markup language.

## Features

- Syntax highlighting

- Interactive preview: `C-c C-c` will preview the current region or the current

  buffer; `C-u C-c C-c` will preview the current buffer up to and including the

  current line.

- Evaluating Org code blocks:

  ```org

  #+begin_src pikchr :file example.svg

  A: box "head" fit

  B: box "tail" fit

  C: box "something" with .sw at A.nw fit wid dist(A.w, B.e)

  #+end_src

  ```

## Known Issues

Pikchr uses heuristics to place text.  The default font family and size chosen

by Emacs to render the interactive preview might be different from that used by

a browser and the alignment might be off (see screenshot above).
