<H1>3.4. Notes</H1>
<HR>
<H2><A NAME="Short Notes">3.4.1. Short Notes</A></H2>
<P>The paragraph tag for adding a single paragraph note is <EM>Note</EM>. For example:</P>
<PRE>
  Note: Life is too short to waste time being unhappy.
</PRE>
<P>The result is:</P>
<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left">
<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>Life is too short to waste time being unhappy.
<HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"></P>
<HR>
<H2><A NAME="Changing the Label">3.4.2. Changing the Label</A></H2>
<P>You can change the label for a note by using the <EM>label</EM> paragraph attribute. For example:</P>
<PRE>
  Note[label='Important: '] Life is too short to drink bad wine.
</PRE>
<P>The result is:</P>
<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left">
<STRONG>Important: </STRONG>Life is too short to drink bad wine.
<HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"></P>
<HR>
<H2><A NAME="Long Notes">3.4.3. Long Notes</A></H2>
<P>If the note requires more than one paragraph, use the <A HREF="../ref/fnote.html">note</A> filter. For example:</P>
<PRE>
  !block note
  Life is too short to:

  * waste time being unhappy
  * worry about yesterday.
  !endblock
</PRE>
<P>The result is:</P>
<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left">
<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>Life is too short to:</P>
<UL>
<LI>waste time being unhappy
<LI>worry about yesterday.</UL>
<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"></P>
<HR>
<H2><A NAME="The NB/NE Tags">3.4.4. The NB/NE Tags</A></H2>
<P>Before the <A HREF="../ref/fnote.html">note</A> filter existed, long notes were created by using the NB (Note Begin) and NE (Note End) tags. For example:</P>
<PRE>
  NB: Life is too short to:

  * waste time being unhappy
  * worry about yesterday.

  NE:
</PRE>
<P>These paragraph styles are still supported, although the <A HREF="../ref/fnote.html">note</A> filter is now the recommended way of specifying long notes.</P>
