GFM syntax guide
Newlines
End a line with two or more spaces + enter.
Just typing enter to newline,please go to Settings and enable "Translate newlines to <br> tags" ( default is enable ).
Task lists
Example:
- [ ] task one not finish `- + SPACE + [ ]`
- [x] task two finished `- + SPACE + [x]`
Result:
- task one not finish
- + SPACE + [ ] - task two finished
- + SPACE + [x]
Image size and alignment (Only in MWeb)
Setting image width, For example: , -w450 mean set the image width: 450.
Multi-line code
Example:
```js
function fancyAlert(arg) {
if(arg) {
$.facebox({div:'#foo'})
}
}
```
Result:
function fancyAlert(arg) {
if(arg) {
$.facebox({div:'#foo'})
}
}
Tables
Example:
First Header | Second Header
------------ | -------------
Content from cell 1 | Content from cell 2
Content in the first column | Content in the second column
You can create tables by assembling a list of words and dividing them with hyphens - (for the first row), and then separating each column with a pipe |:
Result:
| First Header | Second Header |
|---|---|
| Content from cell 1 | Content from cell 2 |
| Content in the first column | Content in the second column |
Strikethrough
Example:
(like ~~this~~)
Result:
Any word wrapped with two tildes (like this) will appear crossed out.
LaTeX
Markdown syntax:
Block-level formula:
```math
x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
```
In-line formula: ``\Gamma(n) = (n-1)!\quad\forall n\in\mathbb N``
The resut is (enable LaTeX in the settings page):
Block-level formula:
\[x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \]In-line formula: \(\Gamma(n) = (n-1)!\quad\forall n\in\mathbb N\)
Note: For compatibility with MWeb 3, \(\Gamma(n) = (n-1)!\quad\forall n\in\mathbb N\) is also supported
And block-level syntax
\(x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\)
But it is recommended to use the new syntax.
