Help on formatting text
Text on this wiki is written in a form very close to how you might write
text for an email message.
Leave blank lines between paragraphs.
You can *emphasise* or **strongly emphasise** text by placing it
in single or double asterisks.
To create a list, start each line with an asterisk:
- * this is my list
- * another item
To make a numbered list, start each line with a number (any number will
do) followed by a period:
- 1. first line
- 2. second line
- 2. third line
To create a header, start a line with one or more #
characters followed
by a space and the header text. The number of #
characters controls the
size of the header:
h2
h3
h4
To create a horizontal rule, just write three or more dashes on their own
line:
To quote someone, prefix the quote with ">":
To be or not to be,
that is the question.
To write a code block, indent each line with a tab:
10 PRINT "Hello, world!"
20 GOTO 10
To link to another page on the wiki, place the page's name inside double
square brackets to create a [[[[WikiLink]]]].
To link to any other web page, you can just put the url in angle brackets:
<http://ikiwiki.kitenet.net>, or you can use the form
[link text](url)
This style of text formatting is called [[MarkDown]].
