azim58 - how I like to mark and organize layered text information


My preferences for how I like to mark and organize layered text
information will probably change and evolve over time.

Preferences as of 5-12-13
Use the Notepad++ program to recognize
 and 
as markers for collapsible
sections of text. This allows for a simple marker to designate a
collapsible section. see how to add nesting and navigation to text
information
Use an xml like tag such as <title of section> before the "
" and a

closing tag such as </title of section> after the "
" to mark the opening
and closing part of the collapsible section of test with a label.
Use a number of "-" before the xml tags to provide layer information. The
number of "-" will answer the question "Is this information at the 1st
layer relative to the "root node", 2nd, 3rd, etc?"
Using all 3 of these features gives the layered information collapsing
capabilities, labels, and quantitative layer info.

Example

--Item a
--Item b



--Item a
--Item b
