blocks:
Double-click on the page to edit; alternatively use the Alt+E key combination.
Clicking on the page title above right takes you to a list of all pages which link to the current page.
Use the linkbars at the top left of each page for key pages and an index of all pages. To search for a page or content use the seach box at the bottom of the page.
Local pages are linked using various link patterns.
Words in double square brackets are links to local pages. These square brackets will not be rendered if the page exists, since this links to a local page. Note that usual punctuation characters are not allowed in free links.
Example:
[[Chalford Baptist Church]]
Result:
[[Chalford Baptist Church]]
CamelCase words are the traditional links to local pages.
Example:
CycleLog
Result:
CycleLog
To prevent the word from being linked, prefix it with an exclamation-mark (!).
Example:
!CycleLog
Result:
CycleLog
Words in double square brackets will inline images on local pages if prefixed with image:". These square brackets will not be rendered if the page exists, since this links to a local page.
Example:
[[image:FrancisBarton]]
Result:
[[image:FrancisBarton]]
[[image/center:http://epfarms.org/~fbarton/files/images/branestawm180.jpg|Home |OddHack]]</pre> ie <pre> [[image/class:image_url|alt|link_destination]]
Plain URLs get hyperlinked.
Example:
http://www.greenbelt.org.uk/
Result:
Plain URLs ending in an image suffix will inline the image.
Example:
http://del.icio.us/img/delicious.gif
Result:

Plain URLs in square brackets turn into numbered links, looking like
footnotes.
Example:
[http://www.oddmuse.org]
Result:
[http://www.oddmuse.org/]
Plain URLs plus some text in square brackets result in the text being linked to the URL. The square brackets will remain visible in order
to distinguish these links from links to local pages.
Example:
[http://www.google.co.uk/ Google UK]
Result:
List items start with one or more asterisks (*) and a space.
The number of asterisks indicates the indentation level.
An empty line ends the list.
Example:
* One item * Another item ** One More
Result:
The Usemod Markup Extension, used on this wiki, contains a rule for definition lists as follows:
; term: definition
If you want the term to include a colon, you have to use numerical escapes.
The colon has the ASCII code 58, therefore you can write the following:
; foo:bar: example
Result:
The following escapes are possible:

< # Paragraphs may span several lines.
< # Paragraphs begin in column 1.
