Twiki vs textile¶

What follows is an introduction for people familiar with Twiki.

Differences between Redmine and Twiki¶

Headers

---++ Twiki header

h2. Redmine header

(remember to leave one empty line before and after the header on redmine)

Sublists are not indented; instead, the number of stars expresses the list level:

* Twiki list
  * Twiki sublist

* Redmine list
** Redmine sublist

Numbered lists are expressed with the # symbol:

1. Twiki numbered list

# Redmine numbered list

Tables look very similar. The only difference is how you express table headers (you prefix the table contents with _.)

|  *Twiki table header*  | *Another header* |
| Twiki table contents   | More cells       |

|_. Redmine table header |_. Another header |
| Redmine table contents | More cells       |

Links have also changed:

[[http:http://www.google.com][Twiki external link to Google]]
[[Description][Twiki internal link]]

Now becomes this:

"Redmine external link to Google":http:http://www.google.com
[[Description|Redmine internal link]]

On redmine there's a specific way link to issues, commits and files on the repository. These really don't have an equivalent on Twiki:

A link to a file stored on the repository: source:/trunk/path/to/file.txt
A link to revision 40 of that file: source:/trunk/path/to/file.txt@40
A link to line 14 of revision 40 of that file: source:/trunk/path/to/file.txt@40#14
A link to revision 758: r1
A link to an issue: #12
