Flexikon: Text Formatting

The Flexikon supports all essential HTML tags for typesets. For many commands the Flexikon provides shortcuts in a simple Flexikon syntax, that should be used preferably if possible. There are also some Flexikon-specific tags.

By using headlines you can create an index automatically. For a description, please view Flexikon: Headlines and Index.

Headlines, paragraphes, lists and lines

 

What it looks like What you type
Start a new paragraph with a headline:

New paragraph

Subsection

Sub-subsection



== New paragraph ==

=== Subsection ===

==== Sub-subsection ====

A single line break is ignored by the Flexikon system.

But a new paragraph is created by insertion of an empty row.

 A row that starts with a space
 is shown exactly as it was
 typed in.

A typeset with a fixed character pitch is used. The rows are not wrapped automatically. This might be useful for:

  • adding pre-formatted text
  • show program codes or algorithms
  • create diagrams by using characters

BE CAREFUL: Do not use very long rows or your page will be very wide and hard to read.


One or more spaces at the beginning of a row

A horizontal line:
