Wiki-JS committed to Roller

September 13th, 2004 by Hen

First commit to Roller :) The Wiki-JS editor I’ve been prattling on about.

It’s a happy little set of regexp-ery (I love regexps) and can do most of JSPWiki’s wiki-style.

There are two additions I’m aware I’ve added. The first is that images are inlined as an img:// url-block and not http://. The second is that two = characters designate an underlined piece of text, much as 2 _ characters designate bold.

headings

I quite like having sub-headings in the blog. I like how it turned out in the Lang post. You have to fix your CSS up though, or I did anyway. I’m based on the Basic theme.

I’ll probably go a bit further than JSPWiki and automatically urlify/imgify without needing the [ blocks. The only limitation that causes is not being able to put a space between the labels.

Tables are there. As are ul/ol lists, including nesting.

<br> tags are fun. To get a nice separation using them you have to use two and not just one.
The br’s also have a habit of seeming to overdo it when they’re near headings, lists etc. Things with automatic newlines on the end basically.

Am looking forward to Hani hating it :)
