An example's doctest directives modify doctest's behavior for that single
example. Use ``+`` to enable the named behavior, or ``-`` to disable it.
-.. note::
- Due to an `unfortunate limitation`_ of our current documentation
- publishing process, syntax highlighting has been disabled in the examples

two blanks before the single-digit list elements, and because the actual output
