Grids
The syntax for a grid consists of the 5 parts separated by the pipe character "|". The first part specifies that we are working with a grid. The second is general text that is over the grid. The third part is the id of the grid, just like a question id. The fourth part is an array of questions, and the fifth part is the set of responses. The response can either be a radio button or a checkbox.
The syntax is
|grid|id=gridid|Directions for the page and a general introduction to the question|[ [ROW1QUESTIONID] row one question text ;[ROW2QUESTIONID] row two question text; [ROW3QUESTIONID] row three question text;]|(1:response 1 text) (2:response 2 text) (3:repsonse 3 text)|
As seen in this specific example: |grid|id="grid_test1"|This is the text on the top like... During the past year, how many times do you the following activities|[ [TG1] Tie your shoes; [TG2] Chew Gum; [TG3] Hop on one foot;]|(1:Never) (2:less than Once per week) (3:less than once per day) (4: more than once per day)|
which on a large screen would look like

for the responses, you could use square bracket to signify that multiple responses make be selected, as seen in the following example:
|grid|id="grid_test2"|This is the text on the top like... During the past year, how many times do you the following activities|[ [TX1] Tie your shoes; [TX2] Chew Gum; [TX3] Hop on one foot;]|[1:Never] [2:less than Once per week] [3:less than once per day] [4: more than once per day]|
