## kramdown 1.10.0 released
This release brings the usual bug fixes but also support for the
strikethrough syntax in the GFM parser as well as some enhancements
regarding the specification of language names for syntax highlighting
purposes.
## Changes
* 4 minor changes:
- Support for the math-engine MathJax-Node was updated to use the new
mathjax-node package (fixes [#313], pull request by Tom Thorogood)
- URL query parameters can now be appended to language names
specified in fenced code blocks if the syntax highlighting engine
accepts them (fixes [#234])

[#307]; initial pull request by Diego Galeota, updated by Parker
Moore)
- Allow almost all characters in class names that are defined via a
special syntax (fixes [#318], requested by cabo)
* 4 bug fixes:
- Fixed a problem where `Kramdown::Document.new` would only accept
the symbol :input but not the string 'input' as valid key (fixes
[#312], pull request by Sun Yaozhu)
- Fixed inconsistent behavior: Empty link text is now also allowed
for normal links, not just images (fixes [#305], reported by cabo)
- The HTML5 `<mark>` element is now recognized as span level element
(fixes [#298], reported by Niclas Darville)

character were not correctly recognized (fixes [#293], reported by
