Wiki Markup

Wookee markup is essentially plain text; just write things down and let Wookee pretty-print them for you.

Here is how Wookee will render what you're writing:

Paragraphs, Sections, Lists and Lines

A paragraph ends with a line break.

This is the next paragraph.

Empty lines are ignored.

A paragraph ends with a line break.
This is the next paragraph.

Empty lines are ignored.

You can break lines
without starting a new paragraph.

You can break lines \\
without starting a new paragraph.

Start your sections with header lines. If your wiki supports it, section headings can be used to auto-generate a table of contents.

  • Lists are good:
    • they organize material
    • they look clean
* Lists are good:
** they organize material
** they look clean
  1. Numbered lists are also good:
    1. very organized
    2. easy to follow

Definition lists
present definitions for terms

is defined here
; Definition lists: present definitions for terms
; This term: is defined here
  • Mixing list types is straightforward
    1. first subitem
    2. second subitem

Lines can be

  if (lines start with whitespace) then
    whitespace        is preserved;
    a monospaced font is used;
    character markup can be used;
  end if;

    '''character''' markup <u>can be used</u>;

Links and Images

The presentation and functionality of internal links is subject to the wiki engine you are using Wookee with. If you are using Wookee on its own, internal links will probably not work at all.

Internal links to another page: Sandbox

Internal links to another page: [[Sandbox]]

You can define a link caption

You can define a [[Sandbox|link caption]]

Reference-style external links: [1], [2]

Reference-style external links:
[[http://example.org]], [[http://example.net]]

A captioned external link

A captioned [[http://example.org|external link]]

URLs and email addresses are made clickable:
http://example.org (contact webmaster@example.org)

URLs and email addresses are made clickable: \\
http://example.org (contact webmaster@example.org)

Links to anchors on the same page,
on another page,
or on an external page

Links to anchors on the [[#anchor|same page]], \\
on [[Sandbox#anchor|another page]], \\
or on an [[http://example.org/#anchor|external page]]

An anchor declaration,
caption is optional

An [[##anchor|anchor declaration]], \\
[[##anchor2]] caption is optional

A link target ending in a recognized image file name extension (.png, .jpg, .gif) renders the linked image inline. A link caption ending in a recognized image file name extension renders the image as the link caption. You can use these features along with your wiki engine's file uploader to embed plain or linked images in your pages.
