The first level is the same for Wikimedia, Markdown and ReST, unfortunately not for Trac. * This is item 1 * This is item 2 http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html#bullet-lists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown#Lists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Wiki_markup#Lists Trac uses MoinMoin * This is item 1 * This is item 2 http://moinmo.in/HelpOnMoinWikiSyntax#Lists If you really want to use ReST it is possible to to use WikiPreprocessors at Trac. {{{ #!rst * This is item 1 * This is item 2 }}} https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/WikiProcessors With textile installed it would support also textile. With some Trac Markdown extension, Trac would support also Markdown preprocessor. I wouldn't vote for textile, but Markdown can be considered since it is supported also by Doxygen (however, not used in grass sources). But basically, there is no point to not use ReST. It is bad that you need to know Mediawiki syntax and Trac Wiki or ReST syntax to contribute to GRASS. Even worse that for manual pages you need to know some basic HTML and for programming manual Doxygen syntax. Currently, I don't see any way to avoid it. And I forgot, Trac of course supports also HTML preprocessor: {{{ #!html <ul> <li></li> </ul> }}} _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
