| > OK. So we allow *single_line* implicit and single line quoted. Great. | | Yes. No multi-line in-line, regardless of whether it is quoted, implicit, or | a collection. in-line => one line; if it is more than one line starting at | the next line shouldn't be a burden. Big change. OK. No "spilling". This puts the nails in the RFC 822 compatibility coffin. ;) | - Leaf nodes have \ \\ | || styles as today. | - Otherwise an in-line leaf is ONE LINE only. | - A "double quoted" in-line leaf is escaped. "" and \" represent ". | - A 'single quoted' in-line leaf isn't escaped; '' represents '. | - Any quoted in-lines leaf is !str by default. | - Otherwise an in-line leaf is implicitly transfered. | - @ and % are BRANCH in-line styles. | - They are ONE LINE just like the leaf in-line style is. | - They are not otherwise related. | - In line branches use , for separation; maps use key=value. | - Entries are in any in-line leaf style and may have | properties (anchors or transfer methods). Ok. The key=value thing is ok. | - An ^<alpha> implicit leaf is implicitly transfered as !str. Fine with me, but given the single quote mechanism, is this needed any more? | The above is a nice merge of the good points of all the | proposals we discussed so far. I suggest we agree on that, | spec it and implement it. Good with me. Best, Clark |
