pandoc -t options should be overwritten

[kohske]

Now, e.g,

in.md

<!--pandoc
s:
webtex:
i:
t: slidy
-->

contents

then,

pandoc('in.md')

generates a command like:

executing pandoc  -s --webtex -i -t slidy -f markdown -t html -o t01.html 't01.md'

as you can see -t slidy is ignored due to -t html.
Thus I cannot generate html5 slide.

So, is it possible to omit adding -t html if -t is already specified by the configuration.

In this case, you have to call pandoc(input, format = 'slidy'), but you have a good point here about what should be done about the -t option. Let me think about it.

I have changed format to t in config. Now pandoc('in.md') should produce slidy output for you.
