huh, yeah, that’s not at all obvious is it 😜

The format is made up with sections that start with either the beginning of the file or an empty line followed by two dashes and a section name. Attributes are zero or more lines under the initial starting header with key/value pairs. Most sections have content, but some don’t (e.g. metadata) which goes below and continues until you hit another section header or the end of the file . A page might look like:

-- title

This Is A Page


-- blockquote
-- by: Some Person

This is what they said

With some more lines


-- metadata
