xidoc

This is a reference of all xidoc commands. A question mark ? before a parameter means that it's optional. An asterisk * before a parameter means that it can take any number of values.

Top-level commands

These commands can be used anywhere within xidoc, unless overridden by other commands.

Basic constructs

`[# anything]`

Comment. Always returns nothing, ignoring what's inside.

Example	Output
`I [# don't] like xidoc.`	I like xidoc.

`[(]`

Returns a left square bracket.

Example	Output
`I'm a sad robot :[(]`	I'm a sad robot :[

`[)]`

Returns a right square bracket.

Example	Output
`I'm a happy robot :[)]`	I'm a happy robot :]

`[() text]`

Wraps text in square brackets.

Example	Output
`[() this-is-not-a-command]`	[this-is-not-a-command]

`[;]`

Returns a semicolon. Useful for “escaping” semicolons in commands that take multiple arguments.

Example	Output
`[list This[;] is[;] only[;] one[;] item]`	This; is; only; one; item

`[space]`

Returns a space character. Useful in commands that strip whitespace.

`[raw text]`

Returns the given text without expanding it.

Example	Output
`[raw [I can use [as many brackets [as I want]], but [they] still have to [[be balanced]]].]`	[I can use [as many brackets [as I want]], but [they] still have to [[be balanced]]].

`[raw< text]`

Removes the least common indentation from all lines of text, then returns it without expanding. A “smarter” version of [raw].

Example	Output
`[code-block nim; [raw< for word in ["This", "correctly", "removes", "indentation"]: echo word ]]`	`for word in ["This", "correctly", "removes", "indentation"]: echo word`

`[pass code]`

Directly produces the given code without escaping it. Useful if you want to go outside the capabilities of xidoc. The code is still expanded so you can parametrize it, see the [pass-raw] command if you don't want this.

Example	Output
`[pass <em>Haha!</em> I'm in! <code>'[;] DROP TABLE xidoc[;]</code> Oh no, this is a static site…]`	Haha! I'm in! `'; DROP TABLE xidoc;` Oh no, this is a static site…

`[pass-raw code]`

`[hide text]`

Expands text for its side effects, but doesn't return anything.

`[expand text]`

After expanding text, expands it again. Useful for complex command definitions.

`[render text]`

After expanding text, renders it. Useful for complex command definitions.

Example	Output
`[render [raw [it This will be italic despite being inside [ms raw].]]]`	This will be italic despite being inside `raw`.

`[add-to-head directive]`
