Difference: TextFormattingRules (21 vs. 22)

Links

• GoodStyle is a WikiWord that links to the GoodStyle topic located in the current TWiki web.
• NotExistingYet is a topic waiting to be written. You could create that topic by clicking on the question mark. (Do not create that topic; you would wreck this example!)

• http://..., https://..., ftp://... and mailto:...@... are linked automatically.
• Email addresses like name@domain.com are linked automatically.

Editing

Formatting Command:	Example: You write:	You get:
Paragraphs: Blank lines will create new paragraphs.	1st paragraph 2nd paragraph	1st paragraph 2nd paragraph
Headings: At least three dashes at the beginning of a line, followed by plus signs and the heading text. One plus creates a level 1 heading (most important), two pluses a level 2 heading; the maximum is level 6. Note: A Table of Content can be created automatically with the %TOC% variable, see TWikiVariables.	---++ Sushi ---+++ Maguro	Sushi Maguro
Bold Text: Words get bold by enclosing them in * asterisks.	*Bold*	Bold
Italic Text: Words get italic by enclosing them in _ underscores.	_Italic_	Italic
Bold Italic: Words get _bold italic by enclosing them in _ double-underscores.	__Bold italic__	Bold italic
Fixed Font: Words get shown in fixed font by enclosing them in = equal signs.	=Fixed font=	Fixed font
Bold Fixed Font: Words get shown in bold fixed font by enclosing them in double equal signs.	==Bold fixed==	Bold fixed
Note: Make sure to "stick" the * _ = == signs to the words, e.g. take away spaces.	_This works_, _this not _	This works, _this not _
Verbatim Mode: Surround code excerpts and other formatted text with <verbatim> and </verbatim> tags. Note: Use <pre> and </pre> tags instead if you want that HTML code is interpreted. Note: Each tag must be on a line by itself.	<verbatim> class CatAnimal { void purr() { <code here> } } </verbatim>	class CatAnimal { void purr() { <code here> } }
Separator: At least three dashes at the beginning of a line.	-------
List Item: Three spaces and an asterisk.	* bullet item	bullet item
Nested List Item: Six, nine, ... spaces and an asterisk.	* nested stuff	nested stuff
Ordered List: Three spaces and a number.	1 Sushi 1 Dim Sum	Sushi Dim Sum
Definition List: Three spaces, the term, a colon, a space, followed by the definition. Note: Terms with spaces are not supported. In case you do have a term with more then one word, separate the words with dashes or with the &nbsp; non-breaking-space entity.	Sushi: Japan Dim&nbsp;Sum: S.F.	Sushi Japan Dim Sum S.F.
Table: Optional spaces followed by the cells enclosed in vertical bars. Note: | *bold* | cells are rendered as table headers. Note: |   spaced   | cells are rendered center aligned. Note: |     spaced | cells are rendered right aligned. Note: | 2 colspan || cells are rendered as multi-span columns. Note: In case you have a long row and you want it to be more readable when you edit the table you can split the row into lines that end with a '\' backslash character.	| *L* | *C* | *R* | | A2 | 2 | 2 | | A3 | 3 | 3 | | multi span ||| | A4 \ | next \ | next |	L C R A2 2 2 A3 3 3 multi span A4 next next
WikiWord Links: CapitalizedWordsStuckTogether (or WikiWords) will produce a link automatically. Note: In case you want to link to a topic in a different TWiki web write Webname.TopicName.	WebNotify Know.ReadmeFirst	WebNotify ReadmeFirst
Forced Links: You can create a forced internal link by enclosing words in double square brackets. Note: Text within the brackets may contain optional spaces; the topic name is formed by capitalizing the initial letter and by removing the spaces; i.e. [[text formatting FAQ]] links to topic TextFormattingFAQ. You can also refer to a different web and use anchors.	[[wiki syntax]] [[Main.TWiki users]]	wiki syntax Main.TWiki users
Specific Links: Create a link where you can specify the link text and the link reference separately, using nested square brackets like [[reference][text]]. Internal link references (i.e. WikiSyntax) and external link references (i.e. http://TWiki.org/) are supported. The same Forced Links rules apply for internal link references. Anchor names can be added as well, like [[WebHome#MyAnchor][go home]] and [[http://www.yahoo.com/#somewhere][Yahoo!]].	[[WikiSyntax][syntax]] [[http://gnu.org][GNU]]	syntax GNU
Anchors: You can define a link reference inside a TWiki topic (called an anchor name) and link to that. To define an anchor write #AnchorName at the beginning of a line. The anchor name must be a WikiWord. To link to an anchor name use the [[MyTopic#MyAnchor]] syntax. You can omit the topic name if you want to link within the same topic.	[[WebHome#NotThere]] [[#MyAnchor][Jump]] #MyAnchor To here	WebHome#NotThere Jump To here
Prevent a Link: Prevent a WikiWord from being linked by prepending it with the <nop> tag.	<nop>SunOS	SunOS

Using HTML

Most HTML tags will work, but it's almost always preferable not to use HTML, so that the markup remains easy for everyone to edit.
