//! Attention is a construct that occurs in the [text][] content type. //! //! How attention parses is too complex to explain in BNF. //! Essentially, one or more of `*` or `_` form attention sequences. //! Depending on the code before and after a sequence, it can open or close //! attention. //! When everything is parsed, we find each sequence that can close, and a //! corresponding sequence that can open which uses the same marker. //! If both sequences have two or more markers, strong is formed. //! Otherwise emphasis is formed. //! //! Attention sequences do not, on their own, relate to anything in HTML. //! When matched with another sequence, and two markers can be “taken” from //! them, they together relate to the `` element in HTML. //! When one marker can be taken, they relate to the `` element. //! See [*§ 4.5.2 The `em` element*][html-em] and //! [*§ 4.5.3 The `strong` element*][html-strong] in the HTML spec for more //! info. //! //! It is recommended to use asterisks for attention when writing markdown. //! //! There are some small differences in whether sequences can open and/or close //! based on whether they are formed with asterisks or underscores. //! Because underscores also frequently occur in natural language inside words, //! while asterisks typically never do, `CommonMark` prohobits underscore //! sequences from opening or closing when *inside* a word. //! //! Because asterisks can be used to form the most markdown constructs, using //! them has the added benefit of making it easier to gloss over markdown: you //! can look for asterisks to find syntax while not worrying about other //! characters. //! //! ## Tokens //! //! * [`Emphasis`][Token::Emphasis] //! * [`EmphasisSequence`][Token::EmphasisSequence] //! * [`EmphasisText`][Token::EmphasisText] //! * [`Strong`][Token::Strong] //! * [`StrongSequence`][Token::StrongSequence] //! * [`StrongText`][Token::StrongText] //! //! > 👉 **Note**: while parsing, [`AttentionSequence`][Token::AttentionSequence] //! > is used, which is later compiled away. //! //! ## References //! //! * [`attention.js` in `micromark`](https://github.com/micromark/micromark/blob/main/packages/micromark-core-commonmark/dev/lib/attention.js) //! * [*§ 6.2 Emphasis and strong emphasis* in `CommonMark`](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.30/#emphasis-and-strong-emphasis) //! //!
