+# .tlv file generated by https://github.com/akkartik/teliva
+# You may edit it if you are careful; however, you may see cryptic errors if you
+# violate Teliva's assumptions.
+#
+# .tlv files are representations of Teliva programs. Teliva programs consist of
+# sequences of definitions. Each definition is a table of key/value pairs. Keys
+# and values are both strings.
+#
+# Lines in .tlv files always follow exactly one of the following forms:
+# - comment lines at the top of the file starting with '#' at column 0
+# - beginnings of definitions starting with '- ' at column 0, followed by a
+#   key/value pair
+# - key/value pairs consisting of '  ' at column 0, containing either a
+#   spaceless value on the same line, or a multi-line value
+# - multiline values indented by more than 2 spaces, starting with a '>'
+#
+# If these constraints are violated, Teliva may unceremoniously crash. Please
+# report bugs at http://akkartik.name/contact
