Text

Text is just text - you can put line breaks anywhere in your writing and put as many spaces as you like within the line - just make sure you start each line in column 1 with no leading spaces. If you want to start a new paragraph, just leave a blank line.

   This
   is
   a       line
   of      text.

...and...

   This is a line of text.

...both come out looking like:

This is a line of text.

Of course if your text is wider than the space the browser has to fit it in, it will wrap it automatically onto the next line. But aside from that, whatever text you type into the file comes out reading the same in the browser.

However it's probably best to get into the habit of NOT breaking up paragraphs into lots of lines because there are other special circumstances in which you don't want to do that.

Boldface and italics

To put a word or phrase into italics, place two single quotes either side of it, use three single quotes for boldface if you want both together, use five single quotes (two to get italics plus another three for boldface):

  This is plain, ''this is in italics'', '''this is in boldface''' and '''''this is both together'''''.

Comes out looking like:

This is plain, this is in italics, this is in boldface and this is both together.

Titles and subtitles

The main title of the document is put onto the page automatically - so you don't start an article with a big fancy title. After that, you put title text on a line by itself with equals signs on the beginning and end. The more equals signs, the less significant your text will look.

So:

 = This is a major title =
 == This is a normal title ==
 === This is a subtitle ===
 ==== This is a four equals signs ====
 ===== This is a five equals signs =====
 ====== This is a six equals signs ======

(You can't go beyond six).

This looks like:

This is a major title

This is a normal title

This is a subtitle

This is four equals signs

This is five equals signs

This is six equals signs
