IntermediateMarkUpType -- the class of intermediate markup types

Description

An intermediate markup type is one that needs further processing to put it into final form. A good example of one is TOH, which represents a link to a documentation node, together with the headline of that node, which may not have been created yet at the time the TOH link is encountered. Another example is HREF, which creates a link using the HTML <a> element: when the link is created, the relative path to the target page depends on the path to the page incorporating the link.

Fixed objects of class IntermediateMarkUpType :

ExampleItem -- a type of hypertext for holding example inputs awaiting outputs

INDENT (missing documentation)
LATER -- a hypertext element for lazy evaluation
LITERAL -- hypertext literal text
MENU -- hypertext menu item
