  13. syntax: <contents> link (on one line)
  14. => <a href="link">contents</a>
  15.  
  16. ommitting [] will make
  17. => <a href="link">link</a>
  18.  
  19. -<contents> link (to leave the text plain)
  20. => <contents> link
  21.  
  22. contents may not include right angle brackets or % by itself.
  23. (is unescaped though so %3e will become > and %25 will become %)
  24. (and %51 will become Q if you don't want to type Q for some reason)
