title: Is it possible to anchor a Literal Block in YAML?
body: <p>What I'm doing is creating several Literal Blocks like the one below, and putting them on a list.</p>
  
  <pre><code>literal1: |
      line
      of 
      text and stuff
  
  literal2: |
      ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and now the part which I can't figure out is to put them on a list. I've figured that I'm going to use anchors and aliases but they don't seem to work on literal blocks.</p>
  
  <p>Doing this doesn't work</p>
  
  <pre><code>literal1: | &amp;literal1
      line
      of
      text and stuff
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it spits out an error. And also I'd rather not have to create a dict</p>
  
  <pre><code>literals: &amp;literal1
      literal1: |
          ....
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>for this to work. I'm sure theres an easy way to do this but I just cant seem to find it.</p>
