Quick Start

Find a page you want to edit. Click WYSIWYG at the bottom or top of the page.

Edit away!

When you are done, click the save icon. If you wish to cancel, click the 'x' icon.

To make a new page, just add the name of the new page in CamelCase (capitalized words strung together with no spaces) anywhere on any page you'd like to link from and save the page. The new page name will have a question mark after it LikeThisOneDoes? . (By the way, don't add anything to this page... if you do, the question mark will go away and the example won't be an example any more!) Click the question mark and you will be taken to the new page which you are now free to edit!

If you see a red box surrounding a word (or <nop> or ! just before a CamelCase word in the text editor), that means the CamelCase word will not be turned into a link, but instead will be shown exactly as written. (There are a LOT of <nop>'s in this article; edit it to see examples of this. ! is newly-added shorthand for <nop>.)

TWiki's are broken up into "webs," which is a really bad way of saying 'major categories.' Sometimes when you edit a document you will see links in the form '[Web].[WikiWord]'. The '[Web].' part of the link tells you which "web" (category) the link refers to; it is hidden when viewing a page. The web you are editing or viewing is the assumed web when this extra information is missing. For example, the page you are reading right now is in the web 'Main'; thus, if you added a link to 'MyArticle' on this page, TWiki would assume you meant 'Main.MyArticle'. Since this site only uses the 'Main' web and you will almost always be viewing the 'Main' web, you will rarely see such 'fully qualified links' and can usually just write 'MyArticle' when making a new link. If you do see a link of this form, it will probably be to the web 'TWiki', which is the web where all the documentation for 'TWiki' is stored. If you are editing an article in another web, such as the 'TWiki' web, and wish to create or reference an article back in the 'Main' web, you will need to write your links in the form 'Main.MyArticle'.

Speaking of other webs, for more information about editing and TWiki in general, read TWiki.WelcomeGuest (WelcomeGuest).
