+# Introduction
+Markers **MUST** be stored as a struct array before sending them to AnyWave.
+## Marker struct description
+````matlab
+Marker.label;     % label of marker
+Marker.position;  % position in seconds.
+Marker.duration;  % duration in seconds.
+Marker.value;     % value associated with marker
+Marker.channels;  % cell array of strings. Labels of targeted channels. Empty if the marker is GLOBAL.
+Marker.color;     % string coding the color in RVB. Must start with #. Example for red : '#FF0000'
+````
+
+Not all fields are required.  The only required fields are:   
+- label  
+- position 
+
+If other fields are not specified, the default values for that fields will be taken into account.  
+Duration will be 0s, value will be 0., targets will be an empty cell array, and colour an empty string meaning the default color will be black.
+
+# Usage
+Sending 2 markers to AnyWave.   
+One is a GLOBAL marker with a duration of 5s and colored in red.   
+The second is a marker targeting a channel, with no duration.   
+````matlab
+function main(varargin)
+anywave('init', varargin);
+
+markers(1).label = 'first marker';
+markers(1).position = 1.;
+markers(1).duration = 5;
+markers(1).color = '#FF0000';
+markers(2).label = 'second marker';
+markers(2).position = 6;
+markers(2).channels = {'A1'};  % this marker will target channel A1 
+
+anywave('send_markers', markers);
