The purpose of this document is to show the BNF that HtmGem uses and the way it determines the line type and what information it fetches from. For this, it uses **curly brackets** to explicitely show what information it takes. In addition to this, the **canonical form** shows how it should be displayed.

textgemini = *(link / preformat / heading / ulist / quoted / plain)
; Preformat toggle starts as 'false'.
plain = **{[WSP] text} [WSP]** end-of-line
; If preformat toggle is false, wrap text to the
; width of the display. Otherwise, do no wrapping.
; canonical form = {[WSP] text}
preformat = "```" **[WSP]** [{alt-text}] **[WSP]** end-of-line
; Preformat toggle set to opposite state:
; false goes to true
; true goes to false
; While in preformat toggle is true, link, heading,
; ulist and quoted lines are NOT interpreted, but
; displayed as is to the user.
; canonical form = ``` [SP {alt-text}]
link = '=>' **[WSP]** [{URI-reference}] [**[WSP]** {text}] end-of-line
; canonical form = '=>' SP {uri-reference} [SP {text}]

This BNF was taken from the working group and adapted to HtmGem's implementation.
Changes:
The white spaces that end a line are never used. See the definition of //text// in the BNF, which no longer contains //SP//.
