Titles

Also referred to as a setext heading, Titles are useful to communicate the central idea of a document. Titles are most useful as the leading content of a set of text material.

Syntax

Titles are created by writing a single line of content followed by a line containing at least 1 of either = or - characters. The second line shouldn't contain text other than these two characters.

Basics

The most basic example, a line of content with a following line with a = character.

My Document Title
=

Titles can be written in the same way using - characters.

My Document Title
-

Any Amount of Characters

The amount of = or - characters that are used is not important. Having a matching amount of characters on both lines can be a nice touch for readability, though.
