Can I use the semantic actions configfile or configstring?  Let's say a
paragraph has an id 01 and I want it to have 3 lines before and 2 lines
after.
With configfile would I make an entry such as configfile
p,id,01,newConfig.cfg?
With configstring would I make an entry like
configstring,p,01,linesBefore=3;linesAfter=3; ?
