Syntax highlighting of help-en/0785027 ~( creole)
= Creole Syntax = <<TableOfContents>> **Creole** is a wiki markup language that has a goal of becoming a common wiki syntax that will enable better exchange of content between different wiki engines. This page introduces you to the most important elements of the creole syntax. Under each heading within a shaded box is the verbatim markup followed by the output as rendered by the wiki engine. The display of some of the features depends upon your wiki configuration and choice of theme. //BTW: This very page is written in creole syntax!// Features currently not working with moin's Creole parser are marked with **CREOLETODO:** == Headings == **Markup:** {{{ === heading 3rd level === ==== heading 4th level ==== ===== heading 5th level ===== }}} **Result:** === heading 3rd level === ==== heading 4th level ==== ===== heading 5th level ===== == Text Formatting == **Markup:** {{{ * //emphasized (italics)// * **boldface** * __underlined__ * **//bold italics//**, //**italics bold __underlined__**// * {{{monospace}}} }}} **Result:** * //emphasized (italics)// * **boldface** * __underlined__ * **//bold italics//**, //**italics bold __underlined__**// * {{{monospace}}} == Hyperlinks == Note this item is in the "help-en" namespace. Within link syntax, namespaces are processed like ordinary parent items. The declaration for a link looks like: {{{ [[url|link text]] }}} === Internal Links === Within MoinWiki and Creole syntax: * a simple link like `[[Home]]` links to an item in the default namespace * a relative link like `../Home` links to a sibling in the current namespace * a link that begins with a namespace like `[[users/Home]]` links to the Home item in the target namespace * a link beginning with / like `[[/subitem]]` links to a subitem of the current item **Markup:** {{{ * [[Home|Home in default namespace]] * [[help-en/Home/subitem]] * [[/MissingSubItem]] * [[../moin|sibling item]] * [[help-en/Home|go to help-en/Home]] * [[#Internal_Links|click to scroll top of page to Internal Links]] * [[MissingPage]] * [[help-en/Home|{{help-common/logo.png}} Go **Home**]] }}} **Result:** * [[Home|Home in default namespace]] * [[help-en/Home/subitem]] * [[/MissingSubItem]] * [[../moin|sibling item]] * [[help-en/Home|go to help-en/Home]] * [[#Internal_Links|click to scroll top of page to Internal Links]] * [[MissingPage]] * [[help-en/Home|{{help-common/logo.png}} Go **Home**]] === External Links === **Markup:** {{{ * https://moinmo.in/ * [[https://moinmo.in/]] * [[https://moinmo.in/|MoinMoin Wiki]] * [[https://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png]] * [[https://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png|moinmoin.png]] * [[MeatBall:InterWiki|InterWiki page on **MeatBall**]] * [[file://///servername/share/full/path/to/file/filename%20with%20spaces.txt|link to file filename with spaces.txt]] * [[https://moinmo.in|{{help-common/logo.png}} Go to **moinmo.in**]] * [[mailto:joe@doe.com|email me]] }}} **Result:** * https://moinmo.in/ * [[https://moinmo.in/]] * [[https://moinmo.in/|MoinMoin Wiki]] * [[https://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png]] * [[https://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png|moinmoin.png]] * [[MeatBall:InterWiki|InterWiki page on **MeatBall**]] * [[file://///servername/share/full/path/to/file/filename%20with%20spaces.txt|link to file filename with spaces.txt]] * [[https://moinmo.in|{{help-common/logo.png}} Go to **moinmo.in**]] * [[mailto:joe@doe.com|email me]] === Images (transclusions) === Creole syntax does not provide a means to position or resize images. **Markup:** {{{ # {{help-common/logo.png}} # {{help-common/logo.svg|my svg}} # {{http://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png}} # {{http://www.xkcd.com/}} }}} **Result:** # {{help-common/logo.png}} # {{help-common/logo.svg|my svg}} # {{http://static.moinmo.in/logos/moinmoin.png}} # {{http://www.xkcd.com/}} === Avoid or Limit Automatic Linking === **Markup:** {{{ * {{{https://www.example.com}}} * ~https://www.example.com/ }}} **Result:** * {{{https://www.example.com}}} * ~https://www.example.com/ == Lists == === Unordered Lists === **Markup:** {{{ * item 1 * item 2 (preceding white space) ** item 2.1 *** item 2.1.1 * item 3 }}} **Result:** * item 1 * item 2 (preceding white space) ** item 2.1 *** item 2.1.1 * item 3 === Ordered Lists === **Markup:** {{{ # item 1 ## item 1.1 ## item 1.2 # item 2 }}} **Result:** # item 1 ## item 1.1 ## item 1.2 # item 2 == Horizontal Rule == **Markup:** {{{ ---- }}} **Result:** ---- == Tables == Creole has an unusual feature that allows table headings to be placed on either rows or columns.
