I stretched this Just my personal preference: I like the two column appearance (What to type - What it looks like) in BasicEditing more. It is very clear and IMO perfectly well suited to demonstrate markup. As a beginner, I wouldn't dig into the sources if I get the information presented readily. BTW: Even the Creole pages use special markup to distinct markup from result. [...] >The Creole documentation is inconsistent in a few places. Of course. And the Creole pages don't explain the markup very well for a beginner. They are made for the wiki developer, not for the user. Therefore I'm afraid that a beginner misses a lot of essential information in PmWikiCreole/EditingForNewcomers.
