Abstract

Inline content item editor commands are provided. An implementation allows a user to initiate various functions related to a content item being edited by entering a command expression inline with the content of the content item being edited. The manner of editor function initiation saves the user time and effort and reduces cognitive burden on the user because it does not require the user to change input modes (e.g., from keyboard to mouse) or change input areas (e.g., from a content item editing area to a distant toolbar or context menu) in order to initiate the function and, if applicable, provide parameters to the function.
