Body Elements
=============
Grid table:
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------+
| Paragraphs are flush-left, | Literal block, preceded by "::":: |
| separated by blank lines. | |
| | Indented |
| Block quotes are indented. | |
+--------------------------------+ or:: |
| >>> print 'Doctest block' | |
| Doctest block | > Quoted |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------+
| | Line blocks preserve line breaks & indents. [new in 0.3.6] |
| | Useful for addresses, verse, and adornment-free lists; long |
| lines can be wrapped with continuation lines. |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

Substitution Def .. |substitution| replace:: like an inline directive
Comment .. is anything else
