Options

Specify options that direct Guide on how you wish to process information in your templates. Options use simple tags. You can include multiple option name and value pairs in one tag, and you should quote values only when those values include a space or a reserved character. Separate each option in the template with a single space.

Add the global flag to retain the option value after Guide processes the block. Otherwise, the option reverts to the parent values. You can also use the keywords parent and default to reset options back to parent values.
