Title: NDMarkup
|
||
|
_______________________________________________________________________________
|
||
|
|
||
|
A markup format used by the parser, both internally and in <NaturalDocs::Parser::ParsedTopic> objects. Text formatted in
|
||
|
NDMarkup will only have the tags documented below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: Top-Level Tags
|
||
|
|
||
|
All content will be surrounded by one of the top-level tags. These tags will not appear within each other.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p></p> - Surrounds a paragraph. Paragraph breaks will replace double line breaks, and single line breaks will
|
||
|
be removed completely.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<code></code> - Surrounds code or text diagrams that should appear literally in the output.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h></h> - Surrounds a heading.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<ul></ul> - Surrounds a bulleted (unordered) list.
|
||
|
<dl></dl> - Surrounds a description list, which is what you are reading.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: List Item Tags
|
||
|
|
||
|
These tags will only appear within their respective lists.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li></li> - Surrounds a bulleted list item.
|
||
|
<de></de> - Surrounds a description list entry, which is the left side. It will always be followed by a description list
|
||
|
description.
|
||
|
<ds></ds> - Surrounds a description list symbol. This is the same as a description list entry, except that the content
|
||
|
is also a referenceable symbol. This occurs when inside a list topic. This tag will always
|
||
|
be followed by a description list description.
|
||
|
<dd></dd> - Surrounds a description list description, which is the right side. It will always be preceded by a description
|
||
|
list entry or symbol.
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: Text Tags
|
||
|
|
||
|
These tags will only appear in paragraphs, headings, or description list descriptions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<b></b> - Bold
|
||
|
<i></i> - Italics
|
||
|
<u></u> - Underline
|
||
|
|
||
|
<link></link> - Surrounds a potential link to a symbol; potential because the target is not guaranteed to exist. This
|
||
|
tag merely designates an attempted link. No other tags will appear between them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<url></url> - Surrounds an external link. No other tags will appear between them.
|
||
|
<email></email> - Surrounds an email address. No other tags will appear between them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: Amp Chars
|
||
|
|
||
|
These are the only amp chars supported, and will appear everywhere. Every other character will appear as is.
|
||
|
|
||
|
& - The ampersand &.
|
||
|
" - The double quote ".
|
||
|
< - The less than sign <.
|
||
|
> - The greater than sign >.
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: Tabs
|
||
|
|
||
|
NDMarkup will not contain tab characters, only spaces. Any tab characters appearing in the source files will be
|
||
|
expanded/replaced as necessary.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
About: General Tag Properties
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since the tags are generated, they will always have the following properties, which will make pattern matching much
|
||
|
easier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Tags and amp chars will always be in all lowercase.
|
||
|
- There will be no properties or extraneous whitespace within tags. They will only appear exactly as documented here.
|
||
|
- All code is valid, meaning tags will always be closed, <li>s will only appear within <ul>s, etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
So, for example, you can match symbol links with /<link>([^<]+)<\/link>/ and $1 will be the symbol. No surprises or
|
||
|
gotchas. No need for sophisticated parsing routines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Remember that for symbol definitions, the text should appear as is, but internally (such as for the anchor) they need to
|
||
|
be passed through <NaturalDocs::SymbolTable->Defines()> so that the output file is just as tolerant as
|
||
|
<NaturalDocs::SymbolTable>.
