===================
Documentation Style
===================
A brief single sentence to describe what this file contains; in this case a
description of the style to write documentation in.
Sections
========
Each section should be separated from the others by two blank lines. Headings
should be underlined using a row of equals signs (===). Paragraphs should be
separated by a single blank line, and wrap to no further than 80 columns.
[[TODO(username): if you want to leave some unanswered questions, notes for
further consideration, or other kinds of comment, use a TODO section. Make sure
to notate it with your name so we know who to ask about it!]]
Subsections
-----------
If required, subsections can use a row of dashes to underline their header. A
single blank line between subsections of a single section.
Bullet Lists
============
* Bullet lists can use asterisks with a single space either side.
* Another blank line between list elements.
Definition Lists
================
Terms:
Start in the first column, ending with a colon
Definitions:
Take a two space indent, following immediately from the term without a blank
line before it, but having a blank line afterwards.
