To create a new page
- first go to the page that your new page will be linked to.
- insert there the name of the new page as a Wiki link
- click on the new link to edit the new page that was just created
To compose a new page, or change an existing page
Just type in text and use the formatting toolbar! It's simple - just look at source code of existing pages.
Hint: OpenOffice 2.3 has a MediaWiki export filter, so you can use OO Writer for formatting and then export that.
generating a box of source code (e.g. to show a script or input file for a program)
Simply introduce a blank at the start of a line. To avoid interruptions of the box, empty lines must start with a blank as well. Example:
shelxc pulg<<eof INFL D22-ip.hkl HREM D22-rh.hkl CELL 85.71 85.71 145.34 90 90 120 SPAG P6522 MAXM 2 eof
mathematical formulas
... are typeset with LaTeX: [math]\displaystyle{ 2 = \left( \frac{\left(3+y-x\right) \times 2}{3-x} \right) }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ F_{hkl} = \sum_{i=1}^{N} e^{-2\pi\imath\left( h\frac{x}{a}+k\frac{y}{b}+l\frac{z}{c}\right)} }[/math]
