% Command and environment definitions
%
% Here, commands are defined for all Markdown element (even if some
% of them do nothing in this template).
%
% If you want to change the rendering of some elements, this is probably
% what you should modify.
%
% Note that elements that already have a LaTeX semantic equivalent aren't redefined
% : if you want to redefine headers, you'll have to renew \chapter, \section, \subsection,
% ..., commands. If you want to change how emphasis is displayed, you'll have to renew
% the \emph command, for list the itemize one, for ordered list the enumerate one,
% for super/subscript the \textsuper/subscript ones.
