- A "token" is a VTube term that means "a word that VTube replaces with a value."
- A "tag" is text that HTML uses to control formatting. Tags are enclosed in corner brackets < and >. So, <vtube_val> is a tag.
- The tag <vtube_val> will be followed by token like DIAMETER. When VTube finds DIAMETER between the tags, it will replace it with an actual value, like "3.500." (Tokens are case-insensitive. DIAMETER, diameter, and Diameter are all the same to VTube.) See a List of Report Tokens.
