We could enhance the rules to allow more structured text. The goal is to keep it as simple and intuitive as possible. New users can use just a subset, power users can use some more advanced rules.

Proposed new rules:

Remarks:

• Headers: So far asteriscs and undersores can be used to define "headers". This is in fact not on the document structure level, it just looks like headers.
• Anchors:
  • The idea is to allow links within a page.
  • Only numbers within the square brackets are considered anchors.
  • A [1]..[n] written at the beginning of the line is considered an Anchor Name (jump target).
  • A [1]..[n] written not at the beginning of the line is considered an Anchor Ref (jump origin).

Headers are further discussed in SectionTitles.
