+# == About ==
+#
+# MEL is the "Markdown Extensions Language"
+# It's a general metalanguage (I made) for adding custom syntax to Markdown (via awk)
+# The idea is it provides parsing for general constructs, and you only need to define
+# the names of those constructs and with what they get replaced with
+#
+# Slightly based on ftags, this system allows you to easily implement the following construts:
+# &(name ... &) Multiline "tag", everything inside is formatted by "name"
+# &{name ... &} In practice, it just replaces "&[name" and "&]" with the appropriate HTML
+# &[name ... &] All three can be used interchangeably, though it's preferrable if
+# you use the matching braces and semantically, in your "language"
+# square brackets are used for the largest components
+# curly for structural components and normal braces for styling
+# &:name Format/encapsulate everything until the end of the paragraph
+# &::name Format/encapsulate everything until the end of the line
+# &.name Insert standalone element as-is
+#
+# Though it's not decided (or implemented) yet, potentially there will also be:
+# &)-( Used to simplify cases of &(name1 ... &) &(name1 ... &) &(name1 ... &)
+# &}-{ into &(name1 ... &)-( ... &)-( ... &)
+# &]-[ Or maybe for special cases, where rather than doing something like
+# &{elementsList &(element1 ... &) &(element2 ... &) &}
+# you could simply do
+# &{elementsList ... &}-{ ... &}-{ ... &}
+# So it will surf as a separator between direct subelements
