      • imag1.png (referred as file #1)
      • file1.pdf (referred as file #2)
      • imag2.png (referred as file #3) 
      [inline:1=test]  or  [inline:imag1.png=test]
      will be replaced by <img src=imag1.png alt=test> 
      [file:1=test]  or  [file:imag1.png=test]
      will be replaced by <a href=imag1.png>test</a> 
      [attachment:2=test]  or  [attachment:file1.pdf=test]
      will be replaced by <a href=file1.pdf.png>test</a>
