2: H1

Horizontal Line


Lists

  • This is a list
  • The second item
    • You may have different levels
  • Another item
  1. The same list but ordered
  2. Another item
    1. Just use indention for deeper levels
  3. And unindent.
  1. Mixed-up list
    • Subpoint
    • Subpoint
  2. Second number
    • Subpoint
    • Subpoint
  3. Third number
      • Sub-subpoint
      • Sub-subpoint
      • Sub-subpoint


* This is a list
* The second item
** You may have different levels
* Another item

# The same list but ordered
# Another item
## Just use indention for deeper levels
# That's it

Quoting

 I think we should do it
 
 > No we shouldn't
 
 >> Well, I say we should
 
 > Really?
 
 >> Yes!
 
 >>> Then let's do it!
This is preformatted code. All spaces are preserved: like              <-this
</code>

<file>
This is pretty much the same, but you could use it to show that you quoted a file.  
</file>

To let the parser ignore an area completely (ie. do no formatting on it), 
enclose the area either with <pre>nowiki

tags or even simpler, with double percent signs

%%
