Wiki Syntax

wiki
documents
are
written
using
a
simple
markup
notation.
Text
is
free
format
with
the
following
exceptions.
-
A
blank
line
begins
a
new
paragraph.
-
If
a
paragraph
contains
only
capital
letters,
it
is
a
section
heading.
-
If
a
line
begins
with
a
*,
it
begins
a
new
item
in
a
bulleted
list.
-
If
a
line
begins
with
a
!,
it
is
formatted
in
typewriter
font
and
uninterpreted.
This
is
useful
for
typescripts
and
program
listings.
-
A
link
is
denoted
by
putting
text
in
square
brackets.
The
text
can
be
``name
of
local
link''
or
``url''
or
``text
|
url''.
Local
link
names
are
not
case
sensitive.

Plan

manual
page
references
are
automatically
made
into
links,
as
in
man(1).
That's
all.
Note
in
particular
that
arbitrary
HTML
tags
are
not
valid,
so
as
to
make
the
pages
friendly
to
those
using
the
Acme
client
rather
than
a
web
browser.
EXAMPLE
If
you're
looking
at
this
page
in
Acme,
this
_is_
the
example.
If
you're
viewing
the
HTML
version,
click
on
the
edit
link
below
to
view
the
source.
If
you
want
to
play
around
with
the
syntax,
try
the
sandbox.
Enjoy.
