	33	### From Source
	34	Make sure you have rust and Make installed. Clone the repository, and run:
	35
	36	```
	37	% make -e profile=release
	38	```
	39
	40	Then copy the file somewhere in your PATH
	41
	42	```
	43	% cp ./target/release/page /usr/local/bin
	44	```
	45
	46	## Usage
	47
	48	Go to the directory that contains your site and run page
	49
	50	```
	51	% cd ~/projects/my_cool_page
	52	% page
	53	```
	54
	55	It will create two directories at the parent directory, they will have the same name as the current one but appending _html and _gemini respectively.
	56
	57	```
	58	% ls ~/projects
	59	my_cool_page/
	60	my_cool_page_gemini/
	61	my_cool_page_html/
	62	```
	63
	64	These pages contain the static files ready to be uploaded with a tool like scp, rsync or however you move files.
	65
	66	## The files.
	67
	68	The website directory has some requirements for page to work correctly.
	69
	70	### Gemtext
	71
	72	Any file with ending .gmi is interpreted as gemtext and will be parsed as html with the following rules:
	73
	74	* The first two lines are checked for front matter
	75	* If the first or second line starts with "--- title:", the text following will be treated as the title of the page and the line will be removed from the output.
	76	* If the first or second line starts with "--- description:", the text following will be treated as the description of the page and the line will be removed from the output.
	77	* URLs that end with the extension ".gmi" will be replaced with ".html" unless the url begins with "gemini:"
	78
	79	Example, this could be index.gmi. The first link will be converted to html but the second won't:
	80
	81	```
	82	--- title: Home
	83	--- description: Clemland is dedicated to all things sound
	84
	85	# Welcome to Clemland
	86
	87	My projects are located here:
	88
	89	=> /projects.gmi Projects
	90
	91	This is a good gemini page:
	92
	93	=> gemini://r.bdr.sh/page.gmi
	94	```
	95
	96	### The layout
	97
	98	A file called _layout.html at the root of the element. It must be present. It should include the three following keywords:
	99	* {{ title }} will get replaced with the front matter title of the gemtext file.
	100	* {{ description }} will get replaced with the front matter description of the gemtext file.
	101	* {{ content }} will get replaced with the body of the gemtext file.
	102
	103	For example:
	104
	105	```
	106	<!DOCTYPE HTML>
	107
	108	<html lang="en">
	109	<head>
	110	<meta charset="utf-8">
	111	<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
	112	<meta name="author" content="Clem Fandango">
	113	<meta name="description" content="{{ description }}">
	114
	115	<title>Clemland {{ title }}</title>
	116
	117	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/style.css">
	118	</head>
	119	<body>
	120	<main>
	121	{{ content }}
	122	</main>
	123	</body>
	124	</html>
	125	```
	126
	127	### Static files
	128
	129	Any file that isn't gemtext or the layout will be copied as-is. This includes hidden files! The only ones that are excluded are .git and .gitignore.
	130
	131	## Changelog

	136	* 1.2.0 Wraps headings in a div to make certain layout operations easier.
