heading = large heading with text “heading”

Source:

# heading = large heading with text "heading"

Headers can’t contain formatting markup - if it does, the text from the start of the formatting and onwards will be placed in a paragraph following the header.

heading = medium heading with text “heading”

Source:

## heading = medium heading with text "heading"

heading = small heading with text “heading”

Source:

### heading = small heading with text "heading"

Links

The source for the above is:

[link]     = create a hyperlink to an internal WikiPage called 'Link'.
[this is also a link] = create a hyperlink to an internal WikiPage called 
                        'ThisIsAlsoALink' but show the link as typed with spaces.
[a sample](link) = create a hyperlink to an internal WikiPage called
                    'Link', but display the text 'a sample' to the
                    user instead of 'Link'.
~NoLink    = disable link creation for the word in CamelCase.
[1]        = make a reference to a footnote numbered 1.
[#1]       = mark the footnote number 1.
[[link]    = create text '[link]'.

Formatting

Source for the above list:

* *text*   = print "text" in italic.
* **text**   = print "text" in bold.
* `text`   = print "text" in monospaced font.

Here’s a horizontal ruler:


And it’s source:



----


Horizontal rulers require an empty line on each side.\Otherwise one will get a syntax/parsing error.

The previous paragraph contained a forced line break. The source looks like the following:

Horizontal rulers require an empty line on each side.\\Otherwise one will get a
syntax/parsing error.

Forced line breaks require at least one printing character following it on the same line (i.e. it can’t be the last thing on the line, and just a space after it isn’t enough), otherwise one will get a parsing error.

Lists

Lists can be nested up to three levels:

The source code for the bulleted list:

* 1 - text     = make a bulleted list item with *1 - text*
* 2 - first level, second item
** 2.1 - next level, first item
** 2.2 - next level - use the numbering to track the level and item nesting
** 2.3 - test
** 2.4 - test
* 3 - test
* 4 - test
** 4.1 - test
** 4.2 - test
*** 4.2.1 - third and final level, first item
*** 4.2.2 - test
*** 4.2.3 - test
*** 4.2.4 - test
** 4.3 - test
* 5 - test

The same goes for numbered lists:

1 - text = make a numbered list item with 1 - text

2 - first level, second item

2.1 - next level, first item

2.2 - next level - use the numbering to track the level and item nesting

2.3 - test

2.4 - test

3 - test

4 - test

4.1 - test

4.2 - test

4.2.1 - third and final level, first item

4.2.2 - test

4.2.3 - test

4.2.4 - test

4.3 - test

5 - test

Source:

# 1 - text     = make a numbered list item with *1 - text*
# 2 - first level, second item
## 2.1 - next level, first item
## 2.2 - next level - use the numbering to track the level and item nesting
## 2.3 - test
## 2.4 - test
# 3 - test
# 4 - test
## 4.1 - test
## 4.2 - test
### 4.2.1 - third and final level, first item
### 4.2.2 - test
### 4.2.3 - test
### 4.2.4 - test
## 4.3 - test
# 5 - test

It is NOT possible to mix numbered and bulleted lists.

Definition lists do not work:

Source:

* **term**: ex   = make a definition for *term* with the explanation *ex*

Tables

The following code:

|   table | header
| --- | --- 
|   normal | cell

gives this table:

table header
normal cell
