Welcome to the
Here you have examples and a brief explanation of all tags.
The first 3 lines of the this file are used as headers, on the following format:
Lines with balanced equal signs = around are titles.
We have two sets of fonts:
The text tags for beautifiers are simple, just as you type on a plain text email message.
We use double *, / and _ to represent bold, italic and underline.
The bold italic style is also supported.
We can put a code sample or other preformatted text:
And also, it's easy to put a one line preformatted text:
Or use
Special entities like an email (duh@somewhere.com) or an URL (http://www.duh.com) are recognized automagically, as long as the horizontal line:
You can also specify an explicit link with label.
And remember,
A list of items is natural, just putting a dash or a plus at the begining of the line.
The dash is the default list identifier. For sublists, just add spaces at the beginning of the line. More spaces, more sublists.
The same rules as the plain list, just a different identifier (plus).
The list identifier is an equal sign, and the colon separate the definition
term to the definition definition.
Tables are supported for the HTML, Sgml and Moin targets.
On the others they're treated as preformatted text.
Just use pipes to compose table rows and cells.
Double pipe at the line begining identify a table title row.
