Text and Formatting (YAML)

Line Breaks

In a YAML text: | block, line breaks are preserved.

Use +n+ for an explicit line break in formats that do not support real new lines.

Text Box

When content inside [[ and ]] is not an image URL, it becomes a framed text block.

text: "[[Memo: the key is in the library.]]"

Inline Markdown

Syntax	Rendering
`text`	Bold
`text`	Italic
`__text__`	Underline

Story Blocks

With markdown: story, semantic blocks get a dedicated visual rendering:

text: |
  ```narration
  The fog thickens between the trees.
  ```
 
  ```dialogue
  **The stranger**: You should not have come.
  ```
 
  ```thought
  *He is lying.*
  ```
 
  ```system
  Objective updated: find the bell.
  ```
 
  ```journal
  Night 14. Third sleepless night.
  ```

Supported story blocks include narration, dialogue, thought, system and journal.
