Slices can be defined using "Name: value" or "|Name|Value|" syntax. When
using the first sytnax, any whitespace (including a newline) that occurs
between the ":" and the start of the value is ignored. The end of the
value is determined by the next newline character. Thus, you can write
either:
Name: value
or
Name:
value
When using the 2nd method, the value occurs in between the two "|",
excluding leading/trailing whitespace. Both format are limited to
single-line values.
To define a named value that includes newlines, you need to use the
"section" syntax, which starts with a heading (e.g, "!NameOfSection"). The
value of a section is defined by the content that follows the heading, up
to the next heading (or the end of the tiddler if no more heading are
found). Like this:
!Name
value
on
several
lines
!end
!OtherName
Another
multi-line
value
!end
Note that the "!end" marker is not included in the section data, and is
only used to ensure that the section content is properly delimited.
