Syntax

• Decorator

  [Text 'f1 'f2(argument) 'f3...]
  

• Block Constructor

  specialCharacterIdentifier requiredInput
  specialCharacterIdentifier requiredInput {
    str
  }
  specialCharacterIdentifier requiredInput {
    k = v,
    k2 = v2
  }
  | identifier requiredInput
  | identifier requiredInput {
    str
  }
  | identifier requiredInput {
    k = v,
    k2 = v2
  }

• ## text { toc: boolean = true } - heading level 2
• ### text { toc: boolean = true } - heading level 3
• #### text { toc: boolean = false } - heading level 4
• ##### text { toc: boolean = false } - heading level 5
• ###### text { toc: boolean = false } - heading level 6
• > text - quote
• --- - horizontal line

Normal Block Constructors
