  table
  !endblock

See Understanding Filter Interfaces, if necessary.

Description

The default filter is a convenient way of calling the default macro for several variables.

The family parameter is often used to specify a common prefix.

The export parameter can be used to export the variables to the target document system. See the export macro for further details on variable exporting.

Examples

!block default
Name            Value
COMPANY_NAME    ACME Mining
COMPANY_PHONE   1234 5678
!endblock

A simpler version is:

!block default; family="COMPANY"
Name    Value
NAME    ACME Mining
PHONE   1234 5678
!endblock
