3.4. Notes


3.4.1. Short Notes

The paragraph tag for adding a single paragraph note is Note. For example:

  Note: Life is too short to waste time being unhappy.

The result is:


Note: Life is too short to waste time being unhappy.


3.4.2. Changing the Label

You can change the label for a note by using the label paragraph attribute. For example:

  Note[label='Important: '] Life is too short to drink bad wine.

The result is:


Important: Life is too short to drink bad wine.


3.4.3. Long Notes

If the note requires more than one paragraph, use the note filter. For example:

  !block note
  Life is too short to:

  * waste time being unhappy
  * worry about yesterday.
  !endblock

The result is:


Note: Life is too short to:



3.4.4. The NB/NE Tags

Before the note filter existed, long notes were created by using the NB (Note Begin) and NE (Note End) tags. For example:

  NB: Life is too short to:

  * waste time being unhappy
  * worry about yesterday.

  NE:

These paragraph styles are still supported, although the note filter is now the recommended way of specifying long notes.
