This is my first attempt at displaying content programmatically within a 
tiddler. Well, almost my first anyway. I have successfully displayed a 
tiddler field in the text of the same tiddler itself, using {{!!fieldname}}, 
but apart from that this is all new territory for me.

As you'll see from the attached screenshot, I'm trying to build a list of 
definitions of technical terms, using a <$list>..</$list> code block, 
containing <$view field="fieldname" /> elements. But I'm trying to format 
the results as a definition list using the semicolon and colon tags. This 
clearly isn't quite working for me, and I was wondering how to make it work 
properly. My logic seems sound, and it is displaying the results I 
expected, but not with the formatting I had hoped for.

I've tried looking at the official TW5 documentation, searching through the 
forums, and staring blankly for many long hours at *@Tobi's* example code 
<https://tobibeer.github.io/tw/xlist/#Examples>, as mentioned in another 
recent discussion thread 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/6RjPa6KEl-k/zsr87jS_AQAJ>, but 
I still can't work it out. I guess I need to be using a <dl>..</dl> code 
block rather than <$list>..</$list>, but I cannot work out how to change 
the parameters in Tobi's example to make them do what I am trying to do.
