Your text is formatted as a web page according to some simple markup rules. These are intended to be convenient and unobtrusive. The StructuredTextRules are used by default. Briefly - * separate paragraphs with a blank line * a single-line paragraph followed by a more-indented paragraph makes a heading * for bulleted/numbered lists, use * or 0. followed by a space * for emphasis, use * ... * and ** ... ** Also - * WikiName(s), bare urls and words enclosed in square brackets are converted to hyperlinks (prepend the link or the line with ! to prevent this) * HTML & DTML tags may be used
