WikitextEdit

Wikitext is an easily editable, plaintext markup language for producing HTML output. It is used as the source text format for popular wiki software such as MediaWiki.

I’ve written a wikitext translator for use in this website. See:

• Official Wikitext product page
• A quick-reference "cheatsheet" showing a subset of the available markup and output
• rubygems.org page: http://rubygems.org/gems/wikitext
• RubyForge project page: http://rubyforge.org/projects/wikitext (no longer updated)
• Git repository browsers:
  • integrated repo browser
