Definition lists
Each term in a definition list starts with a dash. Put a := between the term and the definition. If your definition spans multiple lines, end the definition with =:.
Textile example: Definition lists
- HTML := HyperText Markup Language, based on SGML.
- XHTML := HTML 4.0 rewritten to be compliant with XML rules.
- HTML5 := The latest revision of the HTML standard
