 `[[Span(content, attributes)]]`::<br />
   Wraps text or other elements inside a `<span>` tag.<br />
 `[[Image(filename)]]`::<br />
   Embed an image in wiki-formatted text. The first argument is the filename of the image. The remaining arguments are optional and allow configuring the attributes and style of the rendered `<img>` element:{{{#!html<ul><br />
