PBwiki Coding - For the terminally lazy

OK, so you don't like to get your hands dirty, and you don't
want to do coding. No problem.

The basic stuff can all be done by clicking the appropriate
buttons on the toolbar while you're in editing mode. It looks
similar to the formatting bar in Word.

No, it's not WYSIWYG -- far from it, in fact, since you'll
see the code it inserted for you -- but at least you don't
have to worry about remembering what code does what.

To input new text, here's what you do:

1. Click on the "Edit page" button at the top of the page.
   
   
2. Once you're in editing mode, you'll see the window where
   you type your text.
   
   
3. Once you finish typing your text, or while you're at it, apply
   formatting by selecting the text you want formatted and then
   clicking on the appropriate formatting button on the toolbar
   at the top of the editing window.
   
   Formatting available via the toolbar buttons:
   bold, italic, underline, strikeout, bulleted list, numbered
   list (like this one), horizontal line, table and centered text.
   
   
4. Periodically, or at least at the end of your input, click on one
   of the "Preview" buttons on the top or bottom left-hand side
   of the editing window to see what your text will look like.
   
   
5. Finally, click on the "Save" button, also found on the bottom
   left-hand side of the editing window, to save your work and
   exit editing mode.
   
   
6. That’s it! "Easy peasy," as the "Naked Chef" always says. ;-)

To edit existing text, just follow the steps listed above. There’s
one big difference, though: you’ll see the previously entered text
with its codes. The persons who edited the page before you may
have used more advanced code than what's available via the
formatting toolbar, and they may have also used HTML code, so
be very careful to make sure you don’t accidentally delete those
codes -- unless you mean to delete the formatting in question,
that is...
