Custom Markup Cookbook

This is just a rough idea of things that can be done via the custom markup functionality of #301. It's be a work in progress.

HTML Markup Shortcuts

Rather than having to do things like <html><big>text</big></html>, you can define markups as shortcuts (the HTML would go in the custom formatter section):

Emulating Other Wikis

Many other Wiki styles implement something like [wiki:page description]. This can be easily done with a {wiki: page description} markup using as a formatter <a href="wiki?p=%k">%a</a>.

Want a link into the CVS repository without a cumbersome URL? {getfile cvstrac/main.c} with <a href="getfile?f=%k"><tt>%k</tt></a>.

External Resources

Most external resources will simply be markups as convenient links. The advantage of using a custom markup rather than {link:} markups or straight HTML is that if a service changes, you only have to change the custom markup.

CPAN module? {cpan: module} using <a href="http://search.cpan.org/?query=%k">%k</a>.

An external resource section wouldn't be complete without {google: search terms} with <a href="http://google.com/?q=%k %a">%k %a</a>.
