Unless I'm wrong, I seem to recall that there is a setting to make the
timeline permit wiki and/or HTML markup for check-in comments.

I pulled all my release code into the Fossil repository. Here's how it looks:

https://chiselapp.com/user/andy/repository/wibble/timeline?n=200&y=ci

To be done:

- Create branches for contributed/forked code.
- Publish documentation and examples.
- Create tickets for outstanding bugs.
- Rearrange code now that it's feasible to have multiple files.
- Remove Wibble code and such from the Tcl wiki and redirect to chiselapp.

It bothers me that I will forevermore have to be careful about putting <, >, and & in my check-in comments. I've already had to make several edits to fix this.

I would prefer a more flexible wiki markup. In the future Fossil may grow an admin-selectable secondary wiki markup language that doesn't resort to HTML notation for things like nested lists. But when this is done, it would also be useful to get a conversion utility that parses existing comments and wiki pages and converts to the more advanced style. The purpose, the very definition, of a lightweight markup language such as wiki is to be easily readable in plain text form. Tossing <ul> and <li> and </li> and <a href> and such all over the place is contrary to that goal.

Are there any standardized wiki markup languages worth targeting, or does every wiki engine roll its own?
