* Separate each paragraph with a blank line.

* To display a word or phrase in **bold type**, surround it by asterisks: `*bold type*`

* To display a word or phrase in _italic_, surround it by underscores: `_italic_`

* To display a word or phrase in **_bold italic_**, surround it by double underscores: `__bold italic__`

* To link to another Wiki topic, type the [[WikiWord]] for that topic. To link to a Wiki topic in another web, type the name of the web, a dot, and the WikiWord for that topic: <code>Test.%HOMETOPIC%</code>.

* If you add a [[WikiWord]] for a topic that does not yet exist, you'll see a question mark after it, prompting you (or someone else) to edit the new topic: [[FreshTopic]]. After that's done, the WikiWord will be automatically recognized as a link to the new page.

* For an external hyperlink, just type the URL, starting with `http://`.

* Start a bullet point with space-space-space-asterisk-space.
  * Use a multiple of 3 spaces to start nested bullets.

1. Start items in a numbered list with space-space-space-1-space.
2. The "1" will be replaced by the correct number

* To include an image inline, just type its URL. You also can attach an image to the page and display it with text <code>%ATTACHURL%/imagefile.jpg</code> .

* To display a word or phrase in `MONOSPACED TYPE`, surround it by '=' characters. Use two for bold: <code>**bold mono**</code> .

       Surround code excerpts and other
       formatted text with
       &lt;verbatim&gt; and &lt;/verbatim&gt; tags.

* Use three consecutive hyphens for a horizontal rule: `---`

* To see the markup for any page, click on **Raw text** on the lower toolbar.

* See [[TextFormattingRules]] for more detail.
