:Description: This is a "docinfo block", or bibliographic field list
.. NOTE:: If you are reading this as HTML, please read
`<index.rst>`_ instead to see the input syntax examples!
Section Structure
=================
Section titles are underlined or overlined & underlined.
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. |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------+

Footnote .. [1] Manually numbered or [#] auto-numbered
(even [#labelled]) or [*] auto-symbol
Citation .. [CIT2002] A citation.

.. _indirect target: reStructuredText_
.. _internal target:
Anonymous Target __ http://docutils.sf.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html
Directive ("::") .. image:: images/biohazard.png
Substitution Def .. |substitution| replace:: like an inline directive
Comment .. is anything else
Empty Comment (".." on a line by itself, with blank lines before & after,
used to separate indentation contexts)
================ ============================================================
Inline Markup
=============

with role`:emphasis:; ``inline literal text``; standalone hyperlink,
http://docutils.sourceforge.net; named reference, reStructuredText_;
