Datalinks syntax
Syntax for use in datalinks and other text files:
^ - Newline. Literal newlines are ignored, and often required on longer texts, since there's a per-line character limit (you get crashes if you exceed it).
^^ - Center text
{text} - Makes text bold.
$LINK<X=Y> - Link. X is displayed text, Y is the number of the concept you're linking to. Starting point for various classes of concept/help file section:
