[pmwiki-users] Re: PmWiki.BasicEditing

[Ben Wilson]

I like the direction of the Basic markup page. However, there is no 
mention to the basics of headings, and inline markup (e.g. '''bold'''). 
I think it is easier to explain by showing.

In light of this, I suggest that the basic markup page either needs to 
be sub-divided into smaller pages, or have sectional headings (Inline, 
headings, lists, etc.) with a page TOC at the top. Given a choice, I 
would opt for the latter.
