Structured text is text that uses indentation and simple symbology to indicate the structure of a document. For the next generation of structured text, see ReStructuredText and [http://dev.zope.org/Members/jim/StructuredTextWiki/StructuredTextNG here].

A structured string consists of a sequence of paragraphs separated by one or more blank lines. Each paragraph has a level which is defined as the minimum indentation of the paragraph. A paragraph is a sub-paragraph of another paragraph if the other paragraph is the last preceding paragraph that has a lower level.

Special symbology is used to indicate special constructs:
