Style guide for txt file documents? (lemmygrad.ml)

Is there a style guide or convention for documents that exist as pure .txt files? I’m looking for the accepted convention to specify titles & headings, lists & dot points, and so on, but without the bold & italics formatting available in conventional word processors.

This is the right answer. People even write entire books in markdown nowadays (with the proper headings), and you can easily export it to epub, html, whatever you need.
