Help:Editing

Quick Start
Welcome to the wonderful world of wiki, the benefit is that you can edit the page (and fix my spelling mistakes).

Here is a brutal quickstart because I am sick of clicking on the links below:

Heading
You can type things pretty much as you would expect and the paragraph will flow from line to line. Leaving a blank line will start a new paragraph.

When typing you can emphasize text, to make a point, but that stops being fun after a while.

Sub Heading
One of the fun parts of a wiki is linking:
 * Page link
 * Same thing as Pages and page
 * Page same as [[Page#Sub Heading 1=
 * You could also link to Page
 * a sample page also works

To link to the wider wilder web:
 * http://udig.refractions.net
 * uDig
 * 

Remember:
 * You can create a link to a page that does not exist yet

Where:
 * page link : can be clicked to jump to a page
 * external link
 * will take you to another web page

Sub Heading
Hacking with html is mostly allowed - here is a code example: although you probably want to break out a pre tag for examples of more then one line.
