Usage

Define a chat clips list

A chat clips list is defined by:

1. An ordered list at first level.
   • First list item is to indicate chat clips.
   • Followed list items are recognized as chat clips commands.
2. Unordered lists that start at the second level.
   • Each unordered list item is rendered to a chat clips comment in reading view.

Chat clips commands

Name	Description	Pattern
Group	Fold sublists into a group.	<group-title> | "<group-title>"
Page	Fold sublists into a page.	p <page-number>
