# This is a quick hack
# 
# we rely on 
# 1. SELECT being upper case
# 2. SELECT prefixed with at least 4 spaces, or ~~~\nSELECT,
# to induce <code> tag
# 3. no embedded semi colons in, for eg comments
# 4. semi colon not on the same line as it's SELECT
# 
# error reporting leaves *a lot* to be desired

My installation of pandoc didn't have the advertised templates or the 
advertised directory they were meant to be in, which is a nuisance if 
you need to modify them. This batch file should do the job.

:main
pandoc -v | grep "fault user" | sed  "s/^[^:]*: *\(.*\)/\1/" > genT_tmpfile
set /p PANDOC_USER_DIR=<genT_tmpfile

This is a quick hack, should be easy to port 
to linux but I'm still looking for a usable
systemd free distro so haven't done it

1. SELECT being upper case
