Note

I still need to do some more editing, but this should be adequate for now. -- Steve Brumbaugh, 22 November 2004

Paragraphs

  • Consecutive lines are concatenated into a single paragraph.
  • Blank lines (ones with only a carriage return or with only spaces and tabs) mark the end of a paragraph.

For example,
if I write like this, these lines
will be formatted as one paragraph.

Links

WikiNames

  • WikiNames are comprised of two or more words put together; each word begins with an uppercase letter, and is followed by at least one lowercase letter or number.

  • Example statement
WikiName     - WikiName
HogeRule1    - WikiName
NOTWIKINAME  - All of the letters are uppercase, so this is not a WikiName
WikiNAME     - All of the letters in NAME are uppercase, so this is not a WikiName
*fooWikiName  - This begins with "foo", which is in all lowercase, so this is not a WikiName
  • Example output
    • WikiName - WikiName
    • HogeRule1 - WikiName
    • NOTWIKINAME - All of the letters are uppercase, so this is not a WikiName
    • WikiNAME - All of the letters in NAME are uppercase, so this is not a WikiName
    • fooWikiName - This begins with "foo", which is in all lowercase, so this is not a WikiName

Linking to other Wiki pages

If a page name is surrounded with two pairs of brackets, it becomes a link to that page.
