> Hello! Lines starting with `>` are sent by Findbot.
! Hi! Lines starting with `!` are sent by Guide.
> Each message is 1 line. If you want more lines, use `<n>` for a newline.
! That's the basics. Here's some more advanced stuff:
> **How to pause the story with a button**<n>Once the reader presses the button, the story will resume.
> First, indent 4 spaces (`    `), then type in the name of the button.
> Here's an example:<n>```! Why did the chicken cross the road?<n>    I don't know. Keep going.<n>! To get to the other side.```
! Why did the chicken cross the road?
    I don't know. Keep going!
! To get to the other side.
> **How to add a branch with 2 or more options**<n>The reader can choose which branch to follow! Findbot will add a button for each branch.
> For each branch, indent 4 spaces (`    `), then type in the branch-button's name.
> Once the story runs out branches, it will end. Have fun 😄!
> Here's an example:<n>```! Let's play rock-paper-scissors! What do you choose?<n>    Rock<n>        > You chose rock!<n>    Paper<n>        > You chose paper!<n>    Scissors<n>        > You chose scissors!```
