A token is used as a replaceable tag within a topic and is represented using a token element. The inner text of the element is a token name. The tokens are defined in a separate token file. They are an easy way to represent common items that you use regularly such as a common phrase or external link.
Usage
To use a token, simply insert its name as the inner text of a token element anywhere within a topic.
Example
In this example, "Sandcastle" is a token that expands to an external link to a web site.
