  * B
    * B1
    * B2
  * C

Code

A span of code can be indicated with a backtick `. Blocks of code are indented with four spaces or surrounded by three backticks.

The variable `x` appears in the code below:

    x = 42

The variable x appears in the code below:

x = 42

Thoughtstreams seems to recognize footnote syntax, but the resulting markup seems to be partially-escaped HTML.

Example:

This is body text[^1].

[^1]: This is a footnote

This is body text[^1].

[^1]: This is a footnote

Math

Tex/LaTeX mathematics is supported via MathJax. Inline math should use \(...\) and display math should use either $$...$$ or \[...\].

Einstein said \(E = mc^2\) but he also said

$$R_{\mu \nu} - {1 \over 2}g_{\mu \nu}\,R + g_{\mu \nu} \Lambda = {8 \pi G \over c^4} T_{\mu \nu}$$
