Well, yes. I guess that is more concise :)

Gaaa! The ol' double colon. I guessed that was escaping to get a
single colon.
I now see also what the mysterious double period before "note" is all
about: an explicit markup block. Oh boy.
Thanks for the tips. I will polish the help section a little.
Hopefully the new patterns will be found to be useful.
Best regards,
Tom
