Hi,

I am writing a Rust based midas file reader however it was kind of hard to understand the full midas file 
structure from the documentation.

Only at the end of the page 
https://daq00.triumf.ca/MidasWiki/index.php/Event_Structure#MIDAS_Format_Event one finds under the 
headline “tape format” that there are special events which mark the start and the end of the run. It would 
be better to place this information more prominent maybe we a headline: “Special Events”. Maybe a link to 
this section at the top of the page could help. Also at the mlogger page there is no information about this.

Best,
Marius
