+
+# NAME
+
+quart - document format for *quart*(1) schedules
+
+# SYNTAX
+
+*quart* files are inspired by emacs' org-mode. The header contains the time
+that the schedule begins and each line represents a quarter of time, or 15
+minures.
+
+## HEADER
+
+Before any task, every *quart* file must contain a header with the starting
+time of the schedule. It looks like this:
+
+```
+#+START: 9:15
+```
+
+It is case insenstive.
+
+## COMMENTS
+
+Every line beginning with `#` is ignored. Comments must start at the beginning
+of the line.
+
+## BODY
+
+The body of the document contains the tasks. Each task is a line starting with `\* `
+(asterisk and space). The full definition of a task looks like this:
+
+ \* [_REPETITION_] [_FLAG_] <*DESCRIPTION*>
+
+_FLAG_ and _REPETION_ are optional. See the respective sections below.
+
+The description can be any arbitrary string.
+
+## FLAGS
+
+Each task can have a _flag_ set to make it pop out. There are three flags avaliable:
+
+|- *Char*
+:] *Flag*
+:[ *Description*
+|- \!
+: _Urgent_
+:[ Mark task as important.
+|- ?
+: _Maybe_
+:[ Mark task as mayhap.
+|- @
+: _Depends_
+:[ Task that depends on someone else.
+
+Use them by adding the required _char_ after the `\* ` in a task:
+
+```
+#+start: 9:30
+\* ! Meet with Knuth.
+```
+
+If used with _repetition_ it must go *after* it.
+
+## REPETITION
+
+Allows repetition of a task for as many quarters as needed in succession.
+
+Use them by adding a number right after the `\* ` in a task:
+
+```
+#+start: 11:30
+* 8 Boring 2h meeting.
+```
+
+If used with _flags_ it must go *before* any.
+
+## SPECIAL
+
+There are two special symbols the _DESCRIPTION_ can contain:
+
+*=*
+ Repeat the previous task. It will only carry over the description
+ so it can contain a different _flag_ or _repetition_ number.
+
+*-*
+ None, the most important thing. 15 minutes of doing nothing. \ No newline at end of file
