More formatting rules
[string]
- A string placed within square brackets is interpreted as a
citation which can be associated with a URL. The string
"Search" is a special case which produces a search
form instead of a citation.
<TAB> * <SPACE> string
- This sequence produces a bulleted point. All of the text of the point
must appear on the same line.
<TAB> 1. <SPACE> string
- This sequence produces an ordered list. Groups of these lines will
be numbered sequentially. Again, all of the text must appear on
the same line.
<TAB> title <SPACE> - <SPACE> definition
- This sequence produces a definition list with the specified title
and definition. All of the definition must appear on the same
line.
These last three rules can be further indented by increasing the number
of leading tab characters. Each extra tab will indent the text by one
more level.
Some browsers make it difficult to enter TAB
characters.
For this reason there are alternative
formatting rules which can be used.
