Subject: Re: [support] Non-HTML input
formats?
MediaWiki is the software behind Wikipedia. The markup
language it uses is even easier than HTML. Instead of
<h2>title</h2>
you type
==title==
Likewise, you do things like ''italics'', '''bold''', and so on.
Nothing earth-shattering, but it's easier to type than all that angle-bracket
stuff.
When you say, "the wysiwyg editors", are you talking about wysiwyg
editors in general, or are there some which are specifically meant to work
with drupal?

I am not familiar with MediaWiki so can you give an
example of what you think would be a more user-friendly markup language than
html? I think html is pretty friendly, especially with drupal giving
you the ability to limit which html the user can edit. html is also
the most widely known and accepted markup and familiarity is the greatest
path to usability.
plus there are the wysiwyg editors - at least 5 -
maybe one of them supports what you are looking for.

(MediaWiki being one common example). Are there Drupal modules that
let you enter text like that?
