History of TikiWikiSyntax

-=General Description=-

For more detailed information, see the following:
* ((WikiCharacterFormattingDoc)): bold, italic, underlining, colored text, and monospace (preformatted) text
* ((WikiListDoc)): bulleted, numbered, and definition lists
* ((WikiTables)): simple tables
* ((WikiPageLayoutDoc)): titles, headings, boxes, rules, centered text, and page breaks
* ((WikiLinkingDoc)): links to Wiki and Web pages

__TIP__: Also see ((PluginsList)); several Wiki plugins provide advanced text formatting capabilities.

!!Quick Reference
The following is the same information you see when you click Wiki Quick Help while you're editing a Wiki page.


Text Formatting Rules:
||__Emphasis:__ |~np~ '' for italics, __ for bold, ''__ for both ~/np~
__Lists:__ | ~np~ * for bullet lists, # for numbered lists, ;term:definition for definiton lists ~/np~
__Wiki References:__ |~np~ JoinCapitalizedWords or use ((page)) or ((page|desc)) for wiki references ))SomeName(( prevents referencing ~/np~
__External links:__ |~np~ use square brackets for an external link: [URL] or [URL|link_description] or [URL|description|nocache] (that last form prevents the local Wiki from caching the page; please use that form for large pages!). ~/np~
__Multi-page pages:__ |~np~use ..<!-- this tag is broken inside of "np"; I've fixed this in HEAD. -- rlpowell, 24 May 2004 -->.page... to separate pages. ~/np~
__Misc:__ |~np~ "!", "!!", "!!!" make_headings, "----" makes a horizontal rule "===text===" underlines text ~/np~
__Title bar:__ |~np~ "-=title=-" creates a title bar. ~/np~
__Images:__ |~np~ "{img src=http://example.com/foo.jpg width=200 height=100 align=center link=http://www.yahoo.com desc=foo}" displays an image height width desc link and align are optional ~/np~
__Non cacheable images:__ |~np~ "{img src=http://example.com/foo.jpg?nocache=1 width=200 height=100 align=center link=http://www.yahoo.com desc=foo}" displays an image height width desc link and align are optional ~/np~
__Drawings:__ |~np~ {draw name=foo} creates an editable drawing named "foo". ~/np~
__Tables:__ |~np~ "||row1-col1|row1-col2|row1-col3 ~/np~ ~np~row2-col1|row2-col2col3||" creates a table ~/np~
__RSS feeds:__ |~np~ {rss id=n max=m} ~/np~displays rss feed with id=n maximum=m items
__Simple box:__ |~np~ "^Box content^" Creates a box with the data ~/np~
__Dynamic content:__ |~np~ "{content id=n}" Will be replaced by the actual value of the dynamic content block with id=n ~/np~
__Colored text:__ |~np~ "~~#FFEE33:some text~~" Will display using the indicated HTML color ~/np~
__Center:__ |~np~ "::some text::" Will display the text centered ~/np~
__Non parsed sections:__ "~np~~np~ data ~/np~~/np~" Prevents wiki parsing of the enclosed data.
__Preformated sections:__ |"~np~~p~/np~~np~p~~/np~ data ~np~~/p~/np~~np~p~~/np~" Displays preformated text/code; no Wiki processing is done inside these sections (as with np), and the spacing is fixed (no word wrapping is done).
__Square Brackets:__ |Use ~np~[[foo]~/np~ to show ~np~[foo]~/np~ (in the latest CVS version only).
__Block Preformatting:__ |Indent text with any number of spaces to turn it into a monospaced block that still follows other Wiki formatting instructions. It will be indended with the same number of spaces that you used. Note that this mode does not ppreserve exact spacing and line breaks; use "~np~~p~/np~~np~p~~/np~ data ~np~~/p~/np~~np~p~~/np~" for that.
__Dynamic variables:__ |~np~ "%name%" Inserts an editable variable ~/np~
__Insert Module Output:__ |~np~{M ODULE(module=>some_module)}text{M ODULE}~/np~ can be used to insert the output of module "some_module" into your Wiki page. See PluginModule for more information.
__Rendering Program Code:__ |~np~{C ODE()}some code{C ODE}~/np~ will render "some code" as program code. This plugin has other options; see PluginCode.
__Direction:__ |~np~"{r2l}", "{l2r}", "{rm}", "{lm}" ~/np~ -- Someone who understands these, please elaborate, and also update templates/tiki-edit_help.tpl -- rlpowell
__Misc:__ |~np~"{ toc}", "{ maketoc}" prints out a table of contents for the current page based on ! headings, "{cookie}"~/np~ -- Someone who understands these, please elaborate, and also update templates/tiki-edit_help.tpl -- rlpowell||
