Unordered lists begin with a '* '. The number of asterisks determines the level:

  • foo
  • bar
    • boom
    • bam
  • baz
* foo
* bar
** boom
** bam
* baz

Ordered lists begin with a '0 ' (zero):

  1. foo
  2. bar
    1. boom
    2. bam
  3. baz
0 foo
0 bar
00 boom
00 bam
0 baz

You can mix lists too:

  • Today:
    1. Eat icecream
    2. Buy a pony
  • Tommorrow:
    1. Eat more icecream
    2. Buy another pony
* Today:
00 Eat icecream
00 Buy a pony
* Tommorrow:
00 Eat more icecream
00 Buy another pony

Any text that does not begin in the first column is rendered as preformatted text.

foo   bar
 x     y
 1     2

You can comment out wiki-text with '# ' at the beginning of a line. This will make the text an html comment:

# These lines have been 
# commented out

| <<END | <<END |
This data has vertical | bars |
END
# This is some Perl code:
