Style guidelines when writing pages

• Always make sure there's a heading at the top of the page (type some text and use H1 button)
• Link appropriately to other pages and other projects. There's no such thing as too many links.
• Use <code> tags whenever embedding code examples. You can also specify <code ruby> for magic syntax highlighting.
• When including commands running in a shell, prefix the command with a $ to indicate that the command should be run as a normal user, or # for root (but you shouldn't be using root anyway, right? That's what sudo is for!)
  • e.g.

    $ ls /tmp
    

    for a user, and

    # ls /tmp
    

    for root.

This wiki runs on DokuWiki; see the manual for details.

• If you need to have code nested within an ordered list, you can do it by starting the <code> tag on the same line as the point you want it to be under, ie:

    - this is my ordered item <code ruby>
  puts 'foo'
  </code>
    - another ordered item
  

  (yes; this is dumb)
