=== Table
==== Simple with column specs
[cols="3,2,3"]
|===
|This content is placed in the first cell of column 1
|This line starts with a vertical bar so this content is placed in a new cell in
column 2 |When the processor encounters a whitespace followed by a vertical bar it
ends the previous cell and starts a new cell
|===
==== Repeated column in specs
[cols="2*"]
|===
>s|This cell's specifier indicates that this cell's content is right-aligned and bold.
|The cell specifier on this cell hasn't been set explicitly, so the default
properties are applied.

can be disabled:
[%noheader]
