    proc renderRstToJson(node: PRstNode): string {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}

  Writes the given RST node as JSON that is in the form

        "text":optional string node.text,
        "level":optional int node.level,

    proc renderRstToRst(n: PRstNode; result: var string) {....raises: [Exception],

  renders `n` into its string representation and appends to `result`. Source Edit

  minimal text representation of markup node Source Edit

    proc treeRepr(node: PRstNode; indent = 0): string {....raises: [], tags: [],
        forbids: [].}

  Writes the parsed RST `node` into an AST tree with compact string representation in the format (one line per every sub-node): `indent - kind - [text|level|order|adType] - anchor (if non-zero)` (suitable for debugging of RST parsing). Source Edit
