=item
text
Starts a list. Lists should always be inside an
over/back
block.
Many translators use the value of
text
on the first
=item
to determine the type of list:
-
=item *
-
Bulleted list. An asterisk (
*
) is commonly used for the bullet,
but can be replaced with any other single character.
Followed by a blank line and then the text of the bulleted item:
=item *
This is the text of the bullet.
-
=item
n
-
Numbered list. Replace
n
with
1
on the first item,
2
on the second, and so on - pod does not automatically generate the numbers.
-
=item
text
-
Definition list. Formats
text
as the term and the following paragraph
as the body of the list item. For example:
=item <HTML>
Indicates the beginning of an HTML file
The exact appearance of the output depends on what translator you use,
but it will look pretty much like this:
<HTML>
Indicates the beginning of an HTML file
