So, for a to-do list, if I want to write a lengthy description for a
to-do item, do I need to start the description on the next line
without the stars (*) at the beginning?
I guess that makes sense. See, I thought of the headlines more as a
bulleted list and not just a section heading tree...
If you have any suggestions or guidance, let me know. Either way,
thanks for the sanity check.
