TextFormattingRules
A wiki server formats your text as a web page according to some simple markup rules. These are intended to be convenient and unobtrusive, and should become second nature after a little practice.
ZWiki understands at least four main types of markup. StructuredText is used by default; if the site admin has enabled others, they will be listed as options on the edit form.
- StructuredText (default)
- separate paragraphs with a blank line
- indent paragraphs to create headings
- use ... and ... for emphasis
- WikiName(s), bare urls and words enclosed in square brackets are hyperlinked; prepend a link or a line with ! to prevent this
- HTML & DTML tags may be used
- HTML
- HTML tags required (eg you must separate paragraphs with a <p>)
- WikiName(s), bare urls and words enclosed in square brackets are hyperlinked; prepend a link or a line with ! to prevent this
- DTML tags may be used
- Classic Wiki
- similar to the WikiWikiWeb
- separate paragraphs with a blank line
- indent paragraphs to get fixed-width text
- use ''...'' and '''...''' for emphasis I think
- WikiName(s) and urls are hyperlinked
- Plain Text
- plain, fixed-width text with no surprises.
