Number and Bullet Lists

You create bullets and numbered lists by using an "*" asterisk or "#" hash as the first character on a line. eg

* bullets
## numbered list depth two
* bullets
** indented bullets

# numbered list
# numbered list
## indented list
## indented list
### depth 3 indented list
### more
## and more
# and more

• bullets

1. numbered list depth two

• bullets
  • indented bullets

1. numbered list
2. numbered list
   1. indented list
   2. indented list
      1. depth 3 indented list
      2. more
   3. and more
3. and more

Warning: when you use # inside headers, the first level won't be numbered. The source mentions this 'looks stupid'.

Definition Lists

A definition list can be created by placing a ";" semicolon as the first character on a line, and using a ":" colon to separate the term from the definition. The colon must be on the same line as the semicolon; Definitions can be indented by repeated use of the ";" semicolon. eg

;Term:Definition
;Verse:The owl and the pussy cat went to sea

;;Indented Term:Definition of an indented term
