List, Numbered List, Definition List

• Description: Identifies the start of a list item
• Properties: Multiline, !FreeSpaces, !Align, Nesting
• Contains: Macros, Beautifiers, Lists, Table, Verbatim, Raw, Tagged, Bars, Links, Image, Comment
• Syntax:
  • A line that starts with a dash/plus/colon followed by exactly one space
  • The first list char can NOT be a space (exception: definition lists)
  • Optional spaces (regular spaces, not TAB) at the line beginning define sublists depth (nesting)
  • Sublists end with a less depth item (from parent list) or with an empty item
  • All opened lists are closed with two consecutive blank lines
• Details:
  • If the end of the source file (EOF) is hit, all opened lists are closed
  • Lists can be mixed, like a definition list inside a numbered list.
  • Some targets may not support list nesting, then the sublists items are moved up to the mother list level.
  • There is not a limit for sublists depth. But some targets may have restrictions, so the sublists than are deeper than the maximum level are moved up.
