In Hugo documentation, what is meant by `⊢--^-⊣` and similar?
In the Hugo documentation, I sometimes see code blocks that look like this:
Organization docs
You can keep one _index.md for your homepage and one in each of your
content sections, taxonomies, and taxonomy terms. The following shows
typical placement of an _index.md that would contain content and front
matter for a posts section list page on a Hugo website:
. url
. ⊢--^-⊣
. path slug
. ⊢--^-⊣⊢---^---⊣
. filepath
. ⊢------^------⊣
content/posts/_index.md
What is being said, here? Is "the following" referring to a directory structure? Is that what a file (which file?) would actually look like? Is the url and path etc words some sort of variables, that are being "pointed to" by the |---^--|? Or is the dash caret syntax actual code, and ⊢--^-⊣ means "URL" in human-readable terms?
What does the -, |, ^, || syntax mean in the Hugo docs?

They are using the dash caret syntax as a attempt to explain(not clearly) the directory structure.
url = /posts/
slug = _index.md
filepath = /posts/_index.md
The -, |, ^, || are strictly used to illustrate the url structure and nothing more

I sense you are correct, however, even with your elucidation, the content is totally incomprehensible to me... I genuinely cannot understand what I am looking at here.
