-<span class="emphasis"><em>Paragraphs</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>DelimitedBlocks</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>Table</em></span> content. Filters are
-primarily an extension mechanism for generating specialized outputs.
-Filters are implemented using external commands which are specified in
-configuration file definitions.</p><p>There’s nothing special about the filters, they’re just standard UNIX
-filters: they read text from the standard input, process it, and write
-to the standard output.</p><p>The asciidoc(1) command <code class="literal">--filter</code> option can be used to install and
-remove filters. The same option is used to unconditionally load a
-filter.</p><p>Attribute substitution is performed on the filter command prior to
-execution — attributes can be used to pass parameters from the
-AsciiDoc source document to the filter.</p><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0; margin-right: 10%;"><table border="0" summary="Warning"><tr><td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25"><img alt="[Warning]" src="images/icons/warning.png" /></td><th align="left"></th></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="top"><p>Filters sometimes included executable code.

-asciidoc(1) recursively searches for the executable filter command:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">
-First it looks in the user’s <code class="literal">$HOME/.asciidoc/filters</code> directory.
-</li><li class="listitem">
-Next the global filters directory (usually <code class="literal">/etc/asciidoc/filters</code>
- or <code class="literal">/usr/local/etc/asciidoc</code>) directory is searched.
-</li><li class="listitem">
-Then it looks in the asciidoc(1) <code class="literal">./filters</code> directory.
-</li><li class="listitem">
-Finally it relies on the executing shell to search the environment
- search path (<code class="literal">$PATH</code>).
-</li></ul></div><p>Standard practice is to install each filter in it’s own sub-directory
-with the same name as the filter’s style definition. For example the
-music filter’s style name is <span class="emphasis"><em>music</em></span> so it’s configuration and filter
-files are stored in the <code class="literal">filters/music</code> directory.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="_filter_configuration_files"></a>33.2. Filter Configuration Files</h2></div></div></div><p>Filters are normally accompanied by a configuration file containing a
-Paragraph or DelimitedBlock definition along with corresponding markup
-templates.</p><p>While it is possible to create new <span class="emphasis"><em>Paragraph</em></span> or <span class="emphasis"><em>DelimitedBlock</em></span>
-definitions the preferred way to implement a filter is to add a
-<a class="link" href="ch32.html#X23" title="32.1. Styles">style</a> to the existing Paragraph and ListingBlock definitions
-(all filters shipped with AsciiDoc use this technique). The filter is
-applied to the paragraph or delimited block by preceding it with an
-attribute list: the first positional attribute is the style name,
-remaining attributes are normally filter specific parameters.</p><p>asciidoc(1) auto-loads all <code class="literal">.conf</code> files found in the filter search
-paths unless the container directory also contains a file named
-<code class="literal">__noautoload__</code> (see previous section). The <code class="literal">__noautoload__</code> feature
-is used for filters that will be loaded manually using the <code class="literal">--filter</code>
