Features
Triv is a syntax with only a few features. It's always intended to stay that way.
Multilines
(1) Default content
Content can go on the same line as the element, or on another:
(2) Literals
Triple-quotes (" or ') let you put HTML at the start of a line.
And: you don't have to watch out for colons or indentation.
Triple-backquotes (`) are for publication of
Elements
Elements are normally written as element statements, with a colon (:) — and sometimes as native HTML elements.
(3) Attributes
Element attributes can be specified essentially like a selector.
(4) Default elements
Set a default element name by empty attribute brackets.
Any element with a name omitted, marked with a colon (:) placement mark, assumes the default name.
(5) Self-closing elements
Elements with no closing tag must specify attribute brackets, even if empty, and a trailing forward slash (/).
A second forward slash (//) is for XML.
(6) Convenience native elements
Triple single-quotes are for shortened, convenience HTML elements.
Sections
(7) Default settings
Sections are really just h1's in div's, or
if decorated with an ID mark (#), a div with an id attribute.
(8) Decorators
Each setting on the same line as the section title is a decorator.
Rename the elements, the title/id property, or add more attributes.
(9) Placement
Sections are placed within other sections by a matched level indicator around the title — brackets (shallower) or dots (deeper).
is equivalent to:
(10) Closing
Sections are optionally closed with a single ([])
or multiple sets of empty brackets ([[[]]])
A section reset ([]*) closes all sections.
