The comparison to pandoc seems needlessly hostile. Most users get pandoc as a standalone binary (e.g. the Debian package).

Pandoc is a bit on the larger size, but for what it offers (templating, lua filters, built-in templates for all supported markup languages) it is entirely reasonable.

That's fair, but I didn't mean to critisize Pandoc, it was an excellent tool. My point was that for my own use cases, I wanted a much smaller standalone binary for simple conversions. Rudoc is more focused on a narrower scope.
