Syntax

Syntax justification elements

• new lines
• empty lines
• line breaks
• tabulations
• thematic break

Justification

Escaped characters

Formatting text

Customizing the elements style

• By specifying a Custom StyleSheet and setting custom StyleClasses for some elements
• Or simply by adding a style attribute for the element for which you want to customize ther style. This way (which work exactly as in HTML) is much more simple but of course you will have to specify the style each time you need to

Starting elements

• " meta": specifies the text which should be written as an explanation for an article
• " altTitle": specify alternate titles for the article
• " seeAlso": allows to add a text at the beginning of the article (before the table of contents) which can refer to another article which can have a similar title or subject
• " infobox": a fixed-format table added to the top right-hand corner of articles to consistently present a summary of some unifying aspect that the articles share

Structure elements

Custom Styling

   <title title="the title" class="red" />

   h2.red {
   color: red;
   }

Paragraphs

Example

   <article desc="an article">
     <par>
