Hi Again!
When users are putting often the same long markup sequences, it
may be useful to define "aliases".
Attached modifications allows to:
1) define aliases in jspwiki.properties. For instance:
#Applications shortcuts
alias.citedby=[{ReferringPagesPlugin title='!Cited by:%n'
exclude='Main,LeftMenu'}]
2) Call those alliases in pages: the syntax is the same than for
variable inclusion but a "$" sign is added at the end.
For instance: [{$citedby$}]
The WikiMarkup inside the alias is interpreted.
The nice thing is also that you can change the definition of an
Alias without changing the wiki pages...
Final note: \n is allowed in jspwiki.properties to indicate a end
of line (\n\n for end of paragraph)
Attached source code is for 2.6.1. VariableContent.java is in the
"parser" directory.
Have a nice day!
Christophe
