Blockquotes and Indentations

Indentations in ReST are called Transitions.

To indent test start a line with one or more blanks

Text indented to the 2nd level has more leading blanks than the first level. To continue indentation, use the same number of leading blanks.

To start a second indented paragraph, insert a blank line.

Lists

Unordered Lists

The first item in a list must be preceded with a blank line
Bullets can be "*", "+", or "-"

To start sub-level, insert a blank line

sub-sub level

item 3
item 4

Ordered Lists

The first item of an ordered list should be "1", "A", "a", "I", or "i". To auto-enumerate, use "#" for the subsequent list items.

item 1
item 2
item3

sub-item A)
sub-item B)

sub-sub item I
sub-sub item II

Definition Lists

term:: definition object:: :: description 1 :: description 2

Tables

There are two types of tables, grid and simple. To use grid tables, you must paint the cells of the table using "+", "-", "|", and "=" characters.

Header 1	Header 2	Header 3
body row 1	column 2	column 3
body row 2	Cells may span columns.
body row 3	Cells may span rows.	Cells contain blocks.
body row 4	Cells may span rows.	Cells contain blocks.

To create simple tables, use "=" characters to define the width of the cells with a row.

Inputs		Output
A	B	A or B
False	False	False
True	False	True
False	True	True
True	True	True

A	B	A and B
False	False	False
True	False	False
False	True	False
True	True	True

Admonitions

{{{#!wiki caution '''Don't overuse admonitions'''

Admonitions should be used with care. A page riddled with admonitions will look restless and will be harder to follow than a page where admonitions are used sparingly.
