Wiki List

Twic I provides an easy-to-use but powerful way to write a list. Basically, just write a sequence of items, each starting on its own line and preceded by a hyphen (-). Items can run over multiple lines (as long as none of the lines start with a hyphen; a space followed by a hyphen is okay, though). Note that a list shouldn't contain any entirely blank lines; one of those will end the list and start a new one.

For example:

• Red
• Green
• Blue

Poking things a bit (you'll need to look at the source to get the full effect):

• First item
• Se cond item
• Third item (split over two lines)
• Fourth item - with an internal line-starting hyphen
• Fifth item (with some formatting of the Wiki Text variety)
• Sixth item (with none of the quite unnecessary leading whitespace)
• Seventh item (with extra irrelevant whitespace)

You can also write numbered lists, using hash signs (#):

1. First
2. Second
3. Third

More excitingly, you can do nested lists in the obvious way (by putting several leading hyphens on an item):

• Weird Fiction
• Speculative fiction
• Fantasy
• Science fiction
• Space opera
• Hard SF
• Horror
• Mainstream

You can even mix normal and numbered lists with wild abandon (although the management will not be held responsible for any consequences):

• Alpha
• Beta
1. Beta Une
2. Beta Deux
3. Beta Trois
• Gamma
• Gamma Left
1. Gamma Right
• Delta

Twic I also supports another kind of list, a Wiki Tagged List.
