  Could you fix pmWiki, such that 'color=red' would work?

 No. PmWiki converts the wiki-text to HTML which uses a lot the characters 
 and . In order not to mess with what it already processed to HTML, PmWiki
 converts those characters  and  from the wiki source to the entities lt;
 and gt;, and uses them when the page markup is processed. So it is
 correct,
 if you define new markup rules containing  and , which are not native
 HTML
 but should be re-processed by PmWiki, you should use lt; and gt;.

 Thanks,
 Petko

 P.S. If your use of the {mBlue} markup is really as simple as your example,
 you know you can use the built-in %red% and %blue% command to change the
 text
 to red and to blue.

[pmwiki-users] styles in customMarkup

2010-01-24 Thread Walter Keller
if you define a style in a text variable as
(:vRed:color=red:)
you can use is at as expected in wiki text:
{$:vRed} red text
however, if you do the same with custom markup
Markup('mRed', '^', '/{mRed\+}/', 'color=red');
then then the formatting is not honoured, just the text expanded to 
color 
To make it work you need the clumsy definition
Markup('mBlue', '^', '/{mBlue\+}/', 'gt;gt;color=bluelt;lt;');
