+This plugin works for me. It follows the standard for a movie screenplay pretty closely, I am not aware of any errors in format. Please let me know if you find any.
+
+Right now all it does is display your pages properly in a web browser. What I would like to add is the ability to output a file that could easily be printed once the screenplay is finished. We keep all the scenes we work on in one folder and eventually we will want to print a script out of that folder. It would be great if an up to date PDF or TXT script could be put in the folder when a scene is saved. I will do it, it just isn't a priority yet.
+
+I am not a published writer and not an authority on script formatting. I got what I know out of a book.
+
+Briefly, you type a command on a line, like ".d", then on the next line (for the dialog command) you type a person's name. Then you hit return again and write the words he is supposed to speak out all on one line. When you save your document this simple text will become a properly formatted script.
+
+Thank you Joey for having me here.
+
+###Headings:
+ Most headings should begin with a transition. The list of valid commands is:
+ .fi => FADE IN: a gradual transition from a solid color to an image
+ .fo => FADE OUT.
+ .ftb => FADE TO BLACK.
+ .ftw => FADE TO WHITE.
+ .ct => CUT TO: indicates an instantaneous shift from one shot to the next
+ .shot => lack of an explicit transition assumes a cut
+ .hct => HARD CUT TO: describes a jarring transition
+ .qct => QUICK CUT TO: describes a cut sooner than expected
+ .tct => TIME CUT TO: emphasizes time passing
+ .mct => MATCH CUT TO: image in first shot visually or thematically matches image in second
+ .dt => DISSOLVE TO: gradual transition from image to another implies passage of time.
+ .rdt => RIPPLE DISSOLVE TO: indicates transition into daydream or imagination
+ .wt => WIPE TO: new image slides over top of last one
+
+ Example transition:
+
+ .fi (or any transition command) <= Writes a transition line, except .shot which omits it.
+ type shot heading here <= this line will be capitalized
+ First direction. <= these lines are not capitalized.
+ Second direction.
+ Third direction, etc...
+
+ Direction without a shot heading:
+ .dir
+ First direction.
+ Second direction.
+ Third direction, etc...
+
+ Some items aren't implemented in dialogue yet:
+ 1) you must watch that you don't leave a " -- " dangling on a line by itself,
+ instead, carry the last word onto the line with a dash
+ 2) observe lyrical line endings in dialogue by indenting wrapped lines by two spaces
+ 3) you must watch that the four line limit for parenthetical direction is not exceeded
+
+ Example dialogue:
+
+ .d
+ char name <= this line will be capitalized
+ this is what he's saying <= Dialogue
+ raises hand to wave <= Parenthetical direction
+ this is more of what he's saying <= Dialogue
+ this is going to be in parenthesis <= Parenthetical direction
+ this is more of what he's saying, etc... <= Dialogue
+
+ .note
+ Allows you to add a temporary note to a script without getting an error.
+ All notes need to be removed eventually because they are a format violation.
+
+
+
+ ###name this file screenplay.pm and pop it in your Plugin folder. Then you need to add the plugin to your Ikiwiki setup file.
