User freindliness.


Hey Jason et al.,

Love the site, my wife is travelling through SE Asia (www.blogabond.com/groovespook) so I am keeping the whole crew with updates and the odd picture when she can spare the time to upload one or two.

I had a question for you. Is there any ability to use formatting? The ability to Bold or Italicise would be awesome.

thanks for a great site.

There is actually a way to do some minor text formatting, though we don't actually mention it. It went in as a sort of experiment, and I never pulled it out, but you can do bold and italic text as well as

section


headers

The way you pull it off is through "wiki markup", though we only support a tiny subset of it. Here's a little cheat sheet:

' ' italic text ' ' goes between pairs of single qoutes (remove the spaces).
' ' ' bold text ' ' ' is surrounded by triple single quotes

= = headers = = start on a new line and are surrounded by 2, 3 or 4 equals signs on each side.

It's tough to describe it without being able to simply type it in. Try it out though and I bet you'll get the hang of it.

I certainly wouldn't want to class this under the title of "user friendliness" though! Maybe one of these days I'll put together a little editor that does this stuff for you.
