The "$ref" in here will not be expanded. You could use an <a> to link to the
documentation though.

[Bernhard Bauer, 2012/03/01 16:32:14]

Nit: Use some sort of markup for |incognitoSpecific| and |levelOfControl|?

OK... How come it works in windows.json? ($ref:Tab)

This is of course one of the things I will check once i get the docs generating
properly. :P

Huh, it works. Whaddyaknow ;-)

The type can be boolean.
