Markup Syntax

The markup syntax is very simple:

• Provide a header with title and other information at the top:

  [title: My Document Title] [author: My Name] [date: January 1, 2015] [occasion: New Year's Day] [text: Luke 2:21-40]

  Note that all fields are optional.

• Leave a blank line between paragraphs.

• Use asterisks for emphasis (rendered in italics)

• Use ^{notename} within the text for a footnote/endnote reference. Provide the footnote below your text with {ref:notename:Author, Title. etc...}

• For an offset block quotation, prepend > to each line of a paragraph:

  This paragraph will be a block quote.

• Text enclosed between [* starred braces *] will be ignored as a comment.
