 * `~|`: Associates the error level and message with the *same* line as the
   *previous comment*. This is more convenient than using multiple carets when
   there are multiple messages associated with the same line.
+* `~v`: Associates the error level and message with the *next* error
+  annotation line. Each symbol (`v`) that you add adds a line to this, so `~vvv`
+  is three lines below the error annotation line.
 * `~?`: Used to match error levels and messages with errors not having line
   information. These can be placed on any line in the test file, but are
   conventionally placed at the end.

+#### Positioned above error line

+Use the `//~v` idiom with number of v's in the string to indicate the number
+of lines below. This is typically used in lexer or parser tests matching on errors like unclosed
+delimiter or unclosed literal happening at the end of file.

 #### Error without line information
 
 Use `//~?` to match an error without line information.
