For each element defined in a profile, you have the "short", "definition", and "comment" attributes to explain the intended use of the attribute. I have noticed that sushi generate files with the resource standard-text in them. Can I access these attributes in my fsh-file? If yes, how?
Best regards,

Yes, use the escape syntax:
* element ^short = "some new short description" (fixed the error)

As @Jose Costa Teixeira said, you do want to use the escape syntax. Here is the documentation on that: http://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-shorthand/branches/master/reference.html#caret-paths. Note that in the example above, I think you'd want to do:

* element ^short = "some new short description"

without a . before short.

Thanks @Jose Costa Teixeira and @Nick Freiter ! It works splendidly. That I haven't been able to find it in the language reference is a little bit embarrassing though.

Happy to help. The language reference is a big doc, so no worries, we are here to help!
