.SH
1. INTRODUCTION TO SISU MARKUP[^1]
.BR

.SH
1.1 SUMMARY

.BR
.B SiSU
source documents are plaintext (UTF\-8)[^2] files

.BR
All paragraphs are separated by an empty line.

.BR
Markup is comprised of:

.BR
* at the top of a document, the document header made up of semantic meta\-data
about the document and if desired additional processing instructions (such an
instruction to automatically number headings from a particular level down)

.BR
* followed by the prepared substantive text of which the most important single
characteristic is the markup of different heading levels, which define the
primary outline of the document structure. Markup of substantive text includes:

.BR
  * heading levels defines document structure

.BR
  * text basic attributes, italics, bold etc.

.BR
  * grouped text (objects), which are to be treated differently, such as code
  blocks or poems.

.BR
  * footnotes/endnotes

.BR
  * linked text and images

.BR
  * paragraph actions, such as indent, bulleted, numbered\-lists, etc.

.BR
Some interactive help on markup is available, by typing sisu and selecting
markup or sisu \-\-help markup

.SH
1.2 MARKUP EXAMPLES

.SH
1.2.1 ONLINE

.BR
Online markup examples are available together with the respective outputs
produced from <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/2.html> or from
<http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_examples/>

.BR
There is of course this document, which provides a cursory overview of sisu
markup and the respective output produced:
<http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_markup/>

.BR
Some example marked up files are available as html with syntax highlighting for
viewing: <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sample/syntax>

.BR
an alternative presentation of markup syntax:
<http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sample/on_markup.txt>

.SH
1.2.2 INSTALLED

.BR
With
.B SiSU
installed sample skins may be found in:
/usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/dfsg (or equivalent directory) and if
sisu\-markup\-samples is installed also under:
/usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/non\-free

.SH
2. MARKUP OF HEADERS
.BR

.BR
Headers consist of semantic meta\-data about a document, which can be used by
any output module of the program; and may in addition include extra processing
instructions.

.BR
Note: the first line of a document may include information on the markup
version used in the form of a comment. Comments are a percentage mark at the
start of a paragraph (and as the first character in a line of text) followed by
a space and the comment:


.nf
  % this would be a comment
.fi

.SH
2.1 SAMPLE HEADER

.BR
This current document has a header similar to this one (without the comments):


.nf
  % SiSU 0.57
  @title: SiSU
  @subtitle: Markup \ [0.58]
  @creator: Ralph Amissah
  @rights: Copyright (C) Ralph Amissah 2007, part of SiSU documentation, License GPL 3
  @type: information
  @subject: ebook, epublishing, electronic book, electronic publishing, electronic document, electronic citation, data structure, citation systems, search
  @date.created: 2002\-08\-28

  @date.available: 2002\-08\-28
  @date.modified: 2007\-09\-16
  @date: 2007\-09\-16
  @level: new=C; break=1; num_top=1
  % comment: in this @level header num_top=1 starts automatic heading numbering at heading level 1 (numbering continues 3 levels down); the new and break instructions are used by the LaTeX/pdf and odf output to determine where to put page breaks (that are not used by html output or say sql database population).
  @skin: skin_sisu_manual
  % skins modify the appearance of a document and are placed in a sub\-directory under ./_sisu/skin ~/.sisu/skin or /etc/sisu/skin. A skin may affect single documents that request them, all documents in a directory, or be site\-wide. (A document is affected by a single skin)

2.2 AVAILABLE HEADERS

.BR
Header tags appear at the beginning of a document and provide meta information
on the document (such as the Dublin Core), or information as to how the
document as a whole is to be processed. All header instructions take either the
form @headername: or 0~headername. All Dublin Core meta tags are available

.BR
.B @indentifier:
information or instructions

.BR
where the \"identifier\" is a tag recognised by the program, and the
\"information\" or \"instructions\" belong to the tag/indentifier specified

.BR
Note: a header where used should only be used once; all headers apart from
@title: are optional; the @structure: header is used to describe document
structure, and can be useful to know.

.BR
This is a sample header

3. MARKUP OF SUBSTANTIVE TEXT
.BR

.SH
3.1 HEADING LEVELS

.BR
Heading levels are :A~ ,:B~ ,:C~ ,1~ ,2~ ,3~ ... :A \- :C being part / section
headings, followed by other heading levels, and 1 \-6 being headings followed
by substantive text or sub\-headings. :A~ usually the title :A~? conditional
level 1 heading (used where a stand\-alone document may be imported into
another)

.BR
.B :A~ \ [heading \ text]
Top level heading \ [this \ usually \ has \ similar \ content \ to \ the \
title \ @title: \ ] NOTE: the heading levels described here are in 0.38
notation, see heading

.BR
.B :B~ \ [heading \ text]
Second level heading \ [this \ is \ a \ heading \ level \ divider]

.BR
.B :C~ \ [heading \ text]
Third level heading \ [this \ is \ a \ heading \ level \ divider]

.BR
.B 1~ \ [heading \ text]
Top level heading preceding substantive text of document or sub\-heading 2,
the heading level that would normally be marked 1. or 2. or 3. etc. in a
document, and the level on which sisu by default would break html output into
named segments, names are provided automatically if none are given (a number),
otherwise takes the form 1~my_filename_for_this_segment

.BR
.B 2~ \ [heading \ text]
Second level heading preceding substantive text of document or sub\-heading
3, the heading level that would normally be marked 1.1 or 1.2 or 1.3 or 2.1
etc. in a document.

.BR
.B 3~ \ [heading \ text]
Third level heading preceding substantive text of document, that would
normally be marked 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 or 1.2.1 or 2.1.1 etc. in a document


.nf
  1~filename level 1 heading,
  % the primary division such as Chapter that is followed by substantive text, and may be further subdivided (this is the level on which by default html segments are made)
.fi

.SH
3.2 FONT ATTRIBUTES

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text !{emphasis}! *{bold text}* _{underscore}_ /{italics}/ \"{citation}\" ^{superscript}^ ,{subscript}, +{inserted text}+
  normal text
  !{emphasis}!
  *{bold text}*
  _{underscore}
  /{italics}/
  \"{citation}\"
  ^{superscript}^
  ,{subscript},
  +{inserted text}+
  \-{strikethrough}\-
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text <em>emphasis</em>
.B bold text
.I underscore
.I italics
<cite>citation</cite> ^superscript^ \ [subscript] <ins>inserted text</ins>
<del>strikethrough</del>

.BR
normal text

.BR
<em>emphasis</em>

.BR
.B bold text

.BR
.I underscore

.BR
.I italics

.BR
<cite>citation</cite>

.BR
^superscript^

.BR
[subscript]

.BR
<ins>inserted text</ins>

.BR
<del>strikethrough</del>

.SH
3.3 INDENTATION AND BULLETS

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  ordinary paragraph
  _1 indent paragraph one step
  _2 indent paragraph two steps
  _9 indent paragraph nine steps
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
ordinary paragraph

.BR
  indent paragraph one step

.BR
    indent paragraph two steps

.BR
                  indent paragraph nine steps

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  * bullet text
  _1* bullet text, first indent
  _2* bullet text, two step indent
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
* bullet text

.BR
  * bullet text, first indent

.BR
    * bullet text, two step indent

.BR
Numbered List (not to be confused with headings/titles, (document structure))

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  # numbered list                numbered list 1., 2., 3, etc.
  _# numbered list numbered list indented a., b., c., d., etc.
.fi

.SH
3.4 FOOTNOTES / ENDNOTES

.BR
Footnotes and endnotes not distinguished in markup. They are automatically
numbered. Depending on the output file format (html, odf, pdf etc.), the
document output selected will have either footnotes or endnotes.

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  ~{ a footnote or endnote }~
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
[^3]

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text~{ self contained endnote marker & endnote in one }~ continues
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text[^4] continues

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text ~{* unnumbered asterisk footnote/endnote, insert multiple asterisks if required }~ continues
  normal text ~{** another unnumbered asterisk footnote/endnote }~ continues
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text \ [^*] continues

.BR
normal text \ [^**] continues

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text ~[* \ editors \ notes, \ numbered \ asterisk \ footnote/endnote \ series \ ]~ continues
  normal text ~[+ \ editors \ notes, \ numbered \ asterisk \ footnote/endnote \ series \ ]~ continues
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text \ [^*1] continues

.BR
normal text \ [^+1] continues

.BR
.B Alternative endnote pair notation for footnotes/endnotes:


.nf
.nf
  % note the endnote marker \"~^\"
  normal text~^ continues
  ^~ endnote text following the paragraph in which the marker occurs
.fi

.BR
the standard and pair notation cannot be mixed in the same document

.SH
3.5 LINKS

.SH
3.5.1 NAKED URLS WITHIN TEXT, DEALING WITH URLS

.BR
urls are found within text and marked up automatically. A url within text is
automatically hyperlinked to itself and by default decorated with angled
braces, unless they are contained within a code block (in which case they are
passed as normal text), or escaped by a preceding underscore (in which case the
decoration is omitted).

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu continues
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu> continues

.BR
An escaped url without decoration

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  normal text http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu continues
  deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non\-free
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
normal text http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu continues

.BR
deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non\-free

.BR
where a code block is used there is neither decoration nor hyperlinking, code
blocks are discussed later in this document

.BR
.B resulting output:


.nf
  deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non\-free
  deb\-src http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non\-free
.fi

.BR
To link text or an image to a url the markup is as follows

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  about { SiSU }http://url.org markup
.fi

.SH
3.5.2 LINKING TEXT

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
about SiSU <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/> markup

.BR
A shortcut notation is available so the url link may also be provided
automatically as a footnote

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  about {~^ SiSU }http://url.org markup
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
about SiSU <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/> \ [^5] markup

.SH
3.5.3 LINKING IMAGES

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
      [ tux.png ]
  % various url linked images
      [ tux.png ]
      [ GnuDebianLinuxRubyBetterWay.png ]
  {~^ ruby_logo.png \"Ruby\" }http://www.ruby\-lang.org/en/
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

.BR
[ tux.png ]

.BR
tux.png 64x80 \"Gnu/Linux \- a better way\" <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/>

.BR
[ \ ruby_logo \ (png \ missing) \ ] \ [^6]

.BR
GnuDebianLinuxRubyBetterWay.png 100x101 \"Way Better \- with Gnu/Linux, Debian
and Ruby\" <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/>

.BR
.B linked url footnote shortcut


.nf
  {~^ \ [text \ to \ link] }http://url.org
  % maps to: { \ [text \ to \ link] }http://url.org ~{ http://url.org }~
  % which produces hyper\-linked text within a document/paragraph, with an endnote providing the url for the text location used in the hyperlink
.fi


.nf
  text marker *~name
.fi

.BR
note at a heading level the same is automatically achieved by providing names
to headings 1, 2 and 3 i.e. 2~[name] and 3~[name] or in the case of
auto\-heading numbering, without further intervention.

.SH
3.6 GROUPED TEXT

.SH
3.6.1 TABLES

.BR
Tables may be prepared in two either of two forms

.BR
.B markup example:


.nf
  table{ c3; 40; 30; 30;
  This is a table
  this would become column two of row one
  column three of row one is here
  And here begins another row
  column two of row two
  column three of row two, and so on
  }table
.fi

.BR
.B resulting output:

 \ [table \ omitted, \ see \ other \ document \ formats]

.BR
a second form may be easier to work with in cases where there is not much
information in each column

.BR
.B markup example:
[^7]

3.6.4 CODE

.BR
Code tags are used to escape regular sisu markup, and have been used
extensively within this document to provide examples of
.B SiSU
markup. You cannot however use code tags to escape code tags. They are
however used in the same way as group or poem tags.

.BR
A code\-block is treated as an object and given a single object number. \ [an \
option \ to \ number \ each \ line \ of \ code \ may \ be \ considered \ at \
some \ later \ time]

4. COMPOSITE DOCUMENTS MARKUP
.BR

.BR
It is possible to build a document by creating a master document that requires
other documents. The documents required may be complete documents that could be
generated independently, or they could be markup snippets, prepared so as to be
easily available to be placed within another text. If the calling document is a
master document (built from other documents), it should be named with the
suffix
.B .ssm
Within this document you would provide information on the other documents
that should be included within the text. These may be other documents that
would be processed in a regular way, or markup bits prepared only for inclusion
within a master document
.B .sst
regular markup file, or
.B .ssi
(insert/information) A secondary file of the composite document is built
prior to processing with the same prefix and the suffix
.B ._sst

.BR
basic markup for importing a document into a master document


.nf
  << |filename1.sst|@|^|
  << |filename2.ssi|@|^|
.fi

.BR
The form described above should be relied on. Within the Vim editor it results
in the text thus linked becoming hyperlinked to the document it is calling in
which is convenient for editing. Alternative markup for importation of
documents under consideration, and occasionally supported have been.


.nf
  r{filename}
  {filename.ssi}require
  << {filename.ssi}
  % using textlink alternatives
  |filename.ssi|@|^|require
  << |filename.ssi|@|^|
  % using thlnk alternatives
  <url:filename.ssi>require
  << <url:filename.ssi>
