Ok, Here are some links to topics I have contributed to, mostly for my use, but feel free to check them out.
- WikiPatches/TableSyntax
- MeatBall:TableSyntax
- WikiPatches/EditFromTop
- WikiPatches/ForcedLineBreaks
- WikiPatches/MagicContent
- WikiBugs/editlinks mangles pages in special cases - My suggestion has been adopted by CliffordAdams for UseMod 1.0!
These are my own contributions:
- WikiPatches/NoFreeLinkUserNames
- WikiPatches/MarkupWithinParagraphs
- WikiPatches/PodStyleMarkup
I'm also thinking of implementing the following ideas (some could take a while, though).
- Link to Personal Page in GotoBar.
- Streamlining of Wiki to HTML translation - use more regexp advanced features. Thoughts:
- Look into having nested lists of different types.
- Lists terminate at end of paragraph or when different list type is encountered at same indent or less.
- I'm experimenting with code here - /SteamlinedTextFormatting
- Add lists, headings etc. to table cells - maybe even allow nested tables! Either:
- Code new table syntax as in MeatBall:TableSyntax OR
- Find a way of enhancing existing MoinMoin syntax.
Finally here's MyPatchedWiki source.
- Could you add it to PatchedScripts please? Thanks. -- DavidAndel
- I plan on doing - along with a patch to WikiPatches - as soon as I've finished my current updates. Thanks for the input. --DavidClaughton
