TWiki Shorthand

Separate each paragraph with a blank line.
To display a word or phrase in bold type, put it in asterisks: *bold type*.
To display a word or phrase in italic, put it in underscores: _italic_.
To display a word or phrase in bold italic, put it in double underscores: __bold italic__.
To link to another Wiki topic, type the WikiWord for that topic. To link to a Wiki topic in another web, type the name of the web, and a dot, first: Sandbox.WebHome.
If you enter a WikiWord for a topic that doesn't exist, it'll appear highlighted with a red-link, prompting you (or someone else) to start off the new topic by clicking the link - NewTopic (click the link, but don't save, to preserve the example!).
When entering WikiName signatures - like, guest - include "Main." as a prefix, since all TWiki member pages are in the Main web: Main.YourName.
For an external link, type the full URL: http://twiki.org/.
To prevent a WikiWord from becoming a link, type <nop> or an exclamation point first: <nop>NoLinkPlease or !NoLinkPlease.
To indent with a bullet, enter [space][space][space][asterisk][space].
- Use multiples of 3 spaces to start nested bullets.
  - That's 3-6-9-...
To create a numbered list:
1. Start items in a numbered list with [space][space][space][1][space].
2. The "1" (or any number) will be replaced by the correct number, in order.
3. To add a new paragraph without restarting list numbering, use the %BR% variable, like below:
  Text added (in new paragraph)
4. and list numbering continues.
Always start counting spaces for bullets and such from the beginning of a new line.
To include an image, type its URL. You also can Attach an image to the page and display it with text
%ATTACHURL%/yourimagefilename.jpg
To display a word or phrase in MONOSPACED TYPE, put it in equal signs: =like this=.
Use ==two== for bold: bold mono.
Use <verbatim> to enclose code excerpts, filenames, and other unformatted text:
<verbatim>
unformatted text!
</verbatim>

NOTE: VARIABLES can be set within verbatim tags, that is, they are not disabled
Use <literal> to enclose anything that TWiki must not touch under any circumstances, such as in-line HTML code.
Follow GoodStyle recommendations when editing topics.
