You can use a form of markup to lightly style ypur texts.
For now there is only a single level of heading. To add one to the page you simply start a line with '##' followed by a mandatory space and then the heading's text. The whitespace is important otherwise the line gets displayed as-is, and not as a header. e.g. : ## This is a heading
You can use style tags to put emphasis on words or group of words. It works on a per-line basis, meaning that each line of your text must contain both a opening and closing tag (Often they are the same token, but sometimes not, as with links). If your line is missing a tag, the text is displayed as is. The same will happen if you try, for example, to underline a section that spans multiple line. it wont work. It is meant to provide a simple way to underline single words although if you wish you could apply it to the whole line; And then do the same for each line, this way you can reach the whole text.
Currently the following are available:
- Italics -> '//'
- Bold -> '**'
- Underline -> '__'
e.g. Consider this line, //this would be italics// and this would be normal.
You can link to other posts on the bbs. However the link's text is always the title of page being linked to. To insert a link anywhere inside a line, you must enclose the page's title between '-[' and ']-'. The following example would link to a page named 'my page'. e.g. : -[my page]- If there is no page with that name, the line gets displayed as-is.
