Dragons Be Here
This wiki no longer uses Kwiki, it is now based on Wifty(1,2) but unfortunately it uses a funky hybrid(2) of Kwiki(3) and Markdown(4). As you discover inconsistencies or features, please correct the page below:

Paragraphs are separated by a blank line.
Like this. Another paragraph.
Paragraphs are separated by a blank line. Like this. Another paragraph.
Indent a paragraph (as in the examples showing literal markup above/below) to prevent wiki-formatting of text and present it as 'code'.
Characters that must be represented as entities in HTML eg; & are automatically handled.
Bold text, /italic text/, and underscore text.
*Bold text*, /italic text/, and _underscore text_.
/Combination of bold and italics/
*/Combination of bold and italics/*
You can't escape * and _ with a backslash \like so\

Inline code like so CGI::Kwiki,
note that the effect may be subtle depending on your font face.
Inline code like so [=CGI::Kwiki]
Apparently inline does not work if CamelCase is inside, and in other cases.
e.g. This does not work [=(?#YesNo)^(Yes|No)$]
This does not work [=(?#YesNo)^(Yes|No)$]
There no longer appears to be support for comments, which were previously lines beginning with #. HTML comments are not permitted either.
WikiLinks are formed by two or more words in /camel-case/.

External links begin with http://, like http://www.freepan.org

Forced wiki links are a alphnumeric string surrounded by square brackets.

Named http links have text with an http:// link inside, like Site FreePAN

Sometimes WordsShouldNotMakeAWikiLink so put a '!' beforehand.

Same thing with http://foobar.com

Mailto links are just email addresses like foo@bar.com.

Unordered lists begin with a '* ', but not + (or -?) as in markdown. The number of asterisks determines the level:
- foo
- bar
- boom
- bam
- baz
* foo * bar ** boom ** bam ** baz
Ordered lists begun with 0, and the number of 0's indicates depth:
- foo
- bar
- boom
- bam
- baz
0 foo 0 bar 00 boom 00 bam 0 baz
You can mix lists too:
- Today:
- Eat icecream
- Buy a pony
- Tommorrow:
- Eat more icecream
- 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
