A Simple Text File

This page's vital information:

• Physical location: ./pages/00_Home/A Simple Text File.txt
• Link here with: <a href="?page=A Simple Text File">

It is possibe to make a very quick and simple page just from a text file.

There are a few rules:

• The file *must* have a *.txt extension
• The very first line of text will be displayed as the page title
• Paragraphs must be separated by a completely blank line

Text will be automatically grouped into paragraph markers and any empty line will indicate the start of a new paragraph.

Simple really.

Of course, even though it's a text file, there's noting to stop you putting valid XHTML markers in it (which is how the page's vital information is displayed). However, if making lists (for example) ensure that there is a completely blank line before and after the XHTML tags.
